So I'm re-reading what I've written so far of Second Chances (Book 4 of The Stone Series) and thought this was worthy of sharing...

Raina opens the bathroom door and steps into the bedroom wearing nothing but a towel. “Really? Are you trying to fucking kill me, princess?”

“What?” she innocently asks with a flip of her hair and a smirk on those lips I am aching to have surrounding my cock again. I eye her up and down as my response instead of speaking; my gaze says more than words can. She watches as my eyes dilate and the heat rises in them. Then she glances down my body and watches the tenting of my bathing suit, pleased with herself for still having the capacity to turn me on this fast.

“Yeah, I’m fucking hard for you, Raina. I want to fuck you so bad I can barely speak. But I need you to trust me first, need you to feel safe and know that this connection we have is far greater than fucking. Always has been. So I’ll wait to pounce on you. For a while. But when I do Raina, you’d better be ready because I’m like a caged animal right now and once I’m let loose I’m not going to be gentle or stop. Ever.” I drop my suit with a rise of my eyebrows, turn and head into the bathroom leaving Raina in the bedroom with a glassy look in her eyes and I hope an ache between her legs.
