EXCERPT Holly sighed dreamily and took another bite of her brownie, enjoying the rich, dark chocolate flavor that burst on her tongue as she chewed. She was so enraptured with the idea of meeting the man of her dreams and the soft, gooey texture of the brownie that she didn’t see the person barreling toward her until she ran smack into him. “Oof,” she grunted before stumbling backward. Holly swayed on her feet but didn’t fall. Two strong hands gripped her arms tightly, steadying her. Her eyes slowly focused on the hands that held her, the veins and tendons popping up from underneath the skin somehow adding to the protected feeling that was currently washing over her. The hands felt powerful, yet she got the distinct impression they could be gentle as well. As Holly reveled in the feel of someone holding her like she was something precious, she moved her gaze up and along the line of the arms the magnificent hands were connected to. Her eyes passed over biceps that strained the fabric of the coat they were trapped in and athletic looking shoulders that had clearly seen a bench press a time or twelve. Finally, her eyes settled on what had to be the most handsome face Holly had ever seen. There was so much beauty for her to gaze upon, but it was his eyes that had Holly mesmerized. Gray as the sky during a thunderstorm with tiny flecks of silver like mini bolts of lightning sprinkled throughout. There was so much turmoil in those eyes, but Holly felt nothing but safety and comfort. If his eyes were the storm, his body was the port, strong and steady, though the longer she stared into the torrid gray depths, the more her own internal emotions started to churn. Buy Links: |
