~ Excerpt ~
I turn to
face him; he puts his other arm around me. We are in the same position as
before when the last kiss attempt failed. My arms are tight around his neck,
his arms around my waist. I look down. He lifts up my chin so I’m lost in his
gaze. His hand goes back to my waist. He swallows; I think he’s as nervous as I
am. He tilts his head and leans in … I back away quickly.
“What’s
wrong?” he asks, looking hurt.
“Oh, no,
it’s not you. I think … I might have garlic breath.”
He laughs
and pulls me back to him. “So do I.” He pulls me in tighter, and before I know
what’s happening, his lips are on mine. I give in and surrender to him
completely.
This feels
like one of my fantasies, only way, way better. He holds me tight as one hand
moves from my waist to caress my cheek, kissing me softly but sensually. My
hands move to the back of his head, and I grab a lock of hair in each hand. He
moves our bodies so that I’m against the railing at the edge of the deck. He
moves his hand from my waist to hold the rail as I still grasp his hair. The
kissing becomes feverishly passionate; his tongue against mine as they
intertwine with each other. Our breathing becomes faster and erratic. Our
kissing becomes more intimate. We are in perfect sync with each other. I pull
him closer to me, our whole bodies touching. My heart is pounding fast and
hard. His hand moves from my face to the back of my head, pulling me tight. He
moves my hair from the side of my neck, breaks our kiss and kisses my neck
slowly and seductively. I sigh and breathe in a stuttering motion. I open my
eyes to see the waitress standing there, gawking at us. I stiffen as I see her.
He pulls back and looks at me. With my eyes, I gesture toward the waitress. He
turns, looks, and lets out a little huff. He leans in towards me.
“Now that’s
a first kiss,” he whispers as he grabs my hand and leads me over to the table.
I can’t help but smile.

Excerpt ~
My
nerves start to get the better of me, I start to feel nauseous; those darn
pesky butterflies attack again. I’m not sure why I’m nervous, whether it’s the
shoes making me unstable or whether it’s the memory of our first date, our
first touch, or our first kiss that’s making me bashful.
I turn the corner to see him standing there with a bunch of red roses, in the suit that he changed into earlier, this time with a baby pink tie on. Behind him is that gorgeous waterfall cascading down the cliff with the lush greenery surrounding us. As I take a step closer, I hear music playing. “Thank You for Loving Me” by Bon Jovi. It’s our song. I feel my eyes welling up as all the emotion and love I feel for this man is becoming too much to bear.
His smile is beaming from ear to ear when I approach. Finally I reach him. He holds out his hand for me to take. I take it, and he pulls me into a tight embrace.
“This is perfect,” I whisper.
“Perfection for perfection, my love.” He kisses my cheek, and places the bouquet of flowers on the railing.
