Love of the Game (2016)
“Axel could taste it too?
Kasha stopped breathing. With a trembling hand, she raised the glass to her lips and swallowed. The wine tasted even better than it had before—brilliant and warm and sweet and rich. Just as she imagined his lips would taste.
God, she wanted him to kiss her so badly she couldn’t stand it. Even as she understood that desire had the ability to dismantle her life, she could no more stop her thoughts than she could prevent the sun from setting.
“I know why you told me it tas...ted bad.” He waggled a jesting finger at her. “You wanted to keep it all for yourself.”
“Uh-huh,” she said, because she could barely breathe. Let him think that she was greedy instead of petrified.
He held up the bottle. Examined the faded label. “True Love, huh? Hmm. Gotta say, it’s true love between me and this wine, and I’m not much of a wine drinker.”
Kasha could hear her own heartbeat whooshing through her ears, rushing hard and fast. He’s the one. He’s the one. He’s the one.MoreLess
