Excerpt
“This right
here. The stars. Aren’t they beautiful?” She glanced over to
find Jake staring at her.
“You’re beautiful.”
His hand cupped her
neck and he came in close. “Can I?”
Miriam didn’t
respond. She licked her lips as if they weren’t listening to her brain,
which was emphatically yelling at her to stop this.
Jake obviously wasn’t
listening to her internal monologue as his lips captured hers in a tentative
kiss. Her brain reminded her he was an asshole at the bar, he’d given her
coke yesterday, he was mixed up in Tres Lobos, and he stole from his
parents. It was screaming at her that this was a bad idea.
But at the touch of
his lips on hers, the lizard part of her brain—the part which was just made to
eat, sleep, and have sex—told her to go for it. She whimpered into his
lips in defeat, and his arms went around her waist, pulling her close as he deepened
the kiss. Jake’s lips were soft, his mouth warm, and the aftershave
exquisite. She didn’t want him to ever let her go.
“Oh my God,” she
breathed at him between kisses. His tongue delved into her mouth, but
before she lost herself completely, she pulled back. “We can’t do this.”
He kissed her again,
muttering against her mouth, “Why not?”
“I can think of half a
dozen reasons off the top of my head.”
That seemed to stop
him, but he didn’t let go of her. Jake just looked at her quizzically, as
if he saw absolutely nothing wrong with the fact they were kissing. He
apparently didn’t realize he had a dual personality and was a complete shit
half the time he existed. He finally looked up, taking a deep
breath. When he refocused on her, his eyes hardened into something wild.
Something feral. Something passionate. And a little scary.
“Blame it on the
stars,” was all he said before his mouth captured hers again. This kiss
was different from the first. Where the first one was tentative and
exploratory, this kiss was devouring. It was like he’d gotten a taste of
nirvana and craved more. It was heady, the way his tongue was mating with
hers in a fiery kiss that was quickly undoing her cell by cell. Her last
coherent thought was that Simon was going to kill her.
