A Most Delicate Pursuit (2016)
“How natural it had come to her, to ask such a thing. She felt him tense beneath her and really, she couldn’t blame him. Not only had she killed their romantic playfulness, she’d buried and covered it with ash. Her own heart nearly stopped beating in her chest and her stomach twisted riotously.
There was no denying what her heart wanted now. She had to know before she could spend another minute with him.
Surely he would refuse her. How could he possibly want a woman who’d been ruined from the st...art and then who now freely gave herself to a man without any thought of propriety or decency? She was tainted and used goods and she knew to her soul that no man would ever really want her.
So she waited above him, breathless and wanting, preparing for the sting of his rejection. There were so many ways he could refuse her. Her thoughts swam around frantic in her head like an overfilled barrel of fish.
Seconds passed before Michael spoke. Then, as if awakening from a dream, he gently caressed her cheek.MoreLess
