Summer Love_ A Steamy Small Town Romance Anthology - Piper Rayne Page 0,148

for my waist and carries me to the bed.

I’m the one who opens the condom this time and rolls it along his length. He shivers as I cup his balls. Iskander pushes me lightly before he positions himself between my legs, his length right in my entrance, his gaze capturing mine.

“Thank you for trusting me,” he declares as he pushes himself in slowly, inch by inch, filling not only my body but maybe my lonely soul.

Once he’s all the way in, he slants his mouth against mine and stops. We move slowly, gently, softly. Our bodies dance at the rhythm of our own music. I inhale his scent, letting it roll over my skin.

As his thrusts become faster and deeper, I grasp his shoulders, holding on tight. I’m on fire. We burn. The room becomes an inferno of pleasure. Moans, groans, the sound of skin against skin. Being filled by him is completely and utterly glorious.

The intensity escalates. He’s lifting me high, higher and back every time he pulls out and pumps back inside me. Filling me, opening my body and my soul. The wave of ecstasy hits us both hard. He freezes for one moment, groaning my name. His eyes flash with thunder. It feels like the warning that there’s a storm coming or maybe that it’s over.

There’s a voice in my head saying, ‘What if?’

At that moment he says, “I’m not promising that this is forever, but this might never end. I hope you’re okay with that.”

He takes my mouth, and I feel as if I found the one person who understands me and knows just what to say.

Suddenly I realize that maybe it’s him who I’ve been waiting for all my life. And maybe life isn’t unfair all the time.

Cowboy to Remember

Colton Raines is tired of being the bad boy of country music.

Her free spirit and calm center bring him a peace and a fire that he’s never experienced before. But she’s not interested in being another notch in his belt, despite his protests to the contrary.

Sierra Austin has always wanted a place to belong and a home, after a lifetime of being dragged everywhere. The last thing she needs is a man who has wandering feet and a home base far from the small town where she’s established a strong business. But when her emotions become engaged, will she learn that home is where the
