NOAH — His Voice Like Rough Velvet Caressed Her Everywhere...

"What I'm talking about is the fact that I can feel pain! And that you, Cate,can hurt me more easily, more deeply, and more permanently than anyone on the face of the earth." -Noah

Fayrene Preston knows how to write and lure you into her world of romance and sweet longings!Noah is a very stubborn and sexy hero who showed his emotions through his music.I felt bad for his past and how after all these years thunders and storms still made him afraid.Cate never played any games or behaved stupidly.She was honest in the best of ways and had a stubborn streak inside of herself.Both Noah and Cate are strong individuals,but so vulnerable when they faced each other that it made me cry!I love it how both Noah and Cate rised above all that pain from the past and made something out of themselves and finally got together when the time was right.We also have a mystery tied to the plot about some freaky stalker trying to kill Cate which is one of the reasons she accepted the project of taking photos of Noah.I absolutely love this trope and Preston created a hit out of it!

"Storm Song" is the story of Cate and Noah.
When Cate, the esteemed photojournalist finally gets the chance to work with the insanely famous yet guardedly private musician Noah, nobody realizes their connection goes much deeper, and to their soul.
After all, how can anyone be aware that both met as kids in an orphanage, became each other's lifelines, were cruelly separated by circumstances and have just reunited.
This is the story of how two broken & separated souls meet again and act on their long standing feelings, finally confessing their love, their inner most tragedies and secrets to one another.
Very passionate and honest characters, with lots of pain, angst and heartbreak in their past, but who find each other again due thanks fate and finally decide to acknowledge their suppressed feelings. They are obsessed with one another, their lovemaking is stormy and sensual, and their story a definite tearjerker. Mystery element is added to the basic plot, but our MC always remains in the focus.
Keep your tissues handy for this read.

*********
Noah stared at her, unable to tear his gaze away. She was every song he'd ever written, every prayer
he'd ever uttered. In the dimness of the room her skin carried the luster of satin. Her legs were long
and sleek, her belly flat, her breasts round and high. "I'm going to explode with wanting you," he muttered.
With a bravery born of desire she snaked her arms around his neck and held him tightly. "Don't explode until you're as far inside me as you can get."
"Cate." He shrugged out of his shirt, then yanked open the button on his jeans and slid down the zipper. Then he was sucking in another breath as her hands left his neck to slide down his chest to his
waist.
"Let me," she whispered.
She took her time, drawing out the moment. She was increasing her own agony, but this was a moment too precious to rush. Slowly, carefully, she pushed his jeans past his hips. The discovery that he, too, was naked beneath his clothes halted her actions. He was magnificent, boldly and proudly erect, and the sight held her immobile and made her mouth go dry. Could a woman ever want a man as much as she wanted Noah? She didn't think it was possible.
It was he who moved, grasping her shoulders, walking her backward until she felt the bed against her legs. There was no resistance left in her anywhere. She lay back, sliding over the heavy silk spread
beneath her, positioning herself for him, impatiently waiting.
Overpowered by his need for her, he went down to her. His blood rushing, his hand shaking, he touched her slender body, and he heard a soft cry tear from her throat. The rain was hitting against
the windows, but tonight the storm was over for him. His head spun, as if he had drunk too much wine. His movements were jerky. He wanted her too badly. He'd been hungry too long. He was starved for her.
She pulled his head down and kissed him. It was like a dam breaking in him. He darted his tongue into the open cavern of her mouth and pressed against her softness. His hand stroked down, his fingers delved into her, finding her damp and tight. And he knew he couldn't wait much longer.
She began moving against his hand, moaning softly. He whispered to her, encouraging her, discovering and pressing sensitive spots, listening to her moans. The sight, sound, and feel of her pleasure fed him. She'd always been there in his heart, in his soul, but he'd only dreamed of making her his.
He heard the muffled sound of thunder as it boomed in the distance, and he ignored it. He leaned down and skimmed his lips around one breast and fastened his mouth on its delectable peak. Gently
tugging and sucking, he drank in her taste and inhaled her scent. She was velvet and perfume,femininity and sweetness, and most of all music—everything he loved most in the world. He would willingly die at this moment if it meant he could die in her arms.
As he felt her fingers tighten on his back, he raised over her and entered her with one powerful, sure stroke, feeling her contractions around him and hearing her cry out his name. Her body stiffened and
she arched up to him. He drove into her again, his pelvis meeting hers. Then with a harsh groan and a fragile prayer on his breath he grasped her hips and let himself go completely, convulsing into her,
trusting her as he'd never trusted anyone with the full and unguarded power of his heart and passion.
