Chapter 14

• Colin took a shallow breath, not wanting to move too much. Her eyes were searching his, he would have been content to stand here and look at her all day. He looked at her lips as she moistened them and decided a few more complications wouldn’t be so bad. “This isn’t going to help our situation any—” He lowered his mouth to hers and lightly brushed his lips over hers. Pulling back slightly, he had intended to stop there until he saw the look in her eyes and instead lowered his mouth back to hers.
• Maddy’s hands slid back up to his shoulders without hesitation as his mouth moved lightly over hers again. She knew in her head the timing was all wrong for the two of them, but she didn’t care. Opening her mouth to his, she felt heat rush through her as he deepened the kiss.
• Colin cupped the back of her head and pulled her closer. When her fingers thread into his hair he reached and pulled her body tight against his. Just the feel of her body pressed into his caused a rush of need to surge through him. He’d never held a woman that fit so perfectly against him.
