Am I reading this correctly? Is this author telling me this man just popped a “violent” boner just from the heroines fingers touching his arm? These two just introduced themselves…and he has a boner? Huh?

“The warm, gentle weight of her fingers sent heat rippling through his body. He hardened with a violent rush that shocked him, for he had never allowed himself to be at the mercy of his own lust.”
