Flipping Love You (Boys of the Bayou Gone Wild #3) - Erin Nicholas Page 0,20

huge grizzly bear head that spanned onto his chest and wrapped around to the back of his shoulder. Across his chest were words that appeared to be French and were wrapped with magnolias and met up with a dove on the front of his left shoulder and an eagle on the back. Then down his arm all the way to the wrist was a combination designs, feathers, and vines.

She wanted to explore every single line. She wanted to know what they were all about, what they meant to him, why he’d gotten each one.

But mostly, and first, she wanted to run her hands over them, followed by her lips and tongue.

With his hair down and wild around his shoulders, the glint of an earring from his left ear, the ink covered muscles and the low-slung blue jeans along with the black leather riding boots, he was the epitome of an indulgent fantasy in a roadside motel and Jill was suddenly filled with swirling hot, oh-my-God-yes excitement.

The last few weeks since A.J. had passed and she’d inherited the penguins, her life had been crazy.

She’d quit her job, found a new place to live, prepared to move several states away, broken the news to her family and friends, and learned all about the penguin conservation and propagation program she was now automatically a part of.

She’d spent her time trying to get the penguins used to having her around, figuring out how to actually be in charge of endangered wildlife, getting licenses and paperwork transferred, and figuring out how to be in possession of millions of dollars.

Everything in her life had been turned upside down, it seemed, and if anyone deserved a hot night fulfilling a whole bunch of I-probably-shouldn’t-but-I-really-want-to urges that no one would ever know about, it was her. This was actually the perfect situation and she was all in.

“You okay?” Zeke asked, his hands pausing on the button in front of his jeans.

Jill lifted her eyes to his. She realized that she had been frozen, just staring. She swallowed and nodded. “It just hit me what an amazingly wonderful idea this is.”

The corner of his mouth curled up and he took a step closer. “Which idea exactly?”

“Getting you naked and riding you ’til dawn.”

For just a second Jill was shocked those words had come from her mouth.

But the way his pupils dilated and his mouth fell open, made every bit of shock and embarrassment fade quickly. She loved having an effect on this guy, and there was something about not knowing him, not expecting any of this, and him looking at her the way he was right now that made her feel very brazen.

“Well, since we have until dawn, there’s a whole lot of stuff I’d like to do before we get to the riding,” he told her. “But while we’re both gonna enjoy me bending you over and fucking you from behind, taking you up against the wall, and some good old missionary before we get to that, I’m going to think about you straddling me the whole time.”

Heat blossomed in Jill’s lower belly and spread quickly through her body. God, she loved a guy who talked dirty. And she very much loved the fact that he was meeting her brazen talk with his own.

He reached for the front of her jeans and dragged the zipper down slowly as he said, “And please tell me that you like cowgirl more than reverse cowgirl, because I’d really love to watch your tits bouncing and see your face when you come.”

Her breath caught in her chest and Jill didn’t speak for a moment as he pushed her jeans over her hips and down her legs.

She braced a hand on his huge biceps as she lifted a foot to kick free of the jeans absentmindedly. Her brain was fully focused on what he had said.

“I actually like both lots. Reverse is a fantastic angle and there can be something sexy about getting off without seeing your partner’s face.”

That actually made Zeke stop in the midst of helping her get her jeans off.

“Is that right?”

She looked at him, realizing he was surprised that she’d answered completely honestly. She hadn’t been teasing, flirting, or just talking dirty. All of what she just said was true. “But I’m willing to do cowgirl for you.”

He laughed. “Thanks. I do really appreciate it.”

She let her gaze wander over his body.

He was hard and ripped but he didn’t have a weightlifter’s physique. He had very natural muscle definition,
