Walker’s stony expression cracked a little. “I’m the biggest fucking badass out there, and anyone who thinks they can terrorize you is going to wish they were dead by the time I’m done with them.” It took everything within me not to jump him. To throw myself in his arms and start kissing that hard mouth into softness. I knew it wasn’t particularly modern of me to get turned on by such overt masculinity, but I was a woman and he was all man … and I wanted to taste what it was like to be with him.
