Here is an excerpt from Broken Vows

      In two quick strides he was beside me. I wanted to tell him thanks, but my throat felt dry. I gazed at him as if mesmerized. He took the cup from my hand and set it down on the counter at the island. The pulse throbbed in my throat and a tremor ran through the length of my body as his hand encircled my waist and he pulled me to him.      

     Before my mind could process what was happening, I felt his lips warm and rough against mine. I inhaled his musky male smell, and tasted the sweet essence of his tongue probing mine. My legs turned to jelly. My body melted against his and I kissed him back.
