Her assault on my senses continued as she combed her fingers through my hair, and our mouths pressed against one another.
As she reached down to my pants, my conscience slapped me upside the head and I grabbed her arm. “I can’t.”
“Why not?”
“I’m sorry, I just can’t.”
She pulled away and folded her arms across her chest. Her cheeks were flushed and her eyes drooped. “Please leave.”
“If the circumstances were different, Juniper, I…”
Her eyes burned through me. “Leave!”
Poor Aston can never catch a break...
If you enjoyed this, click the link to HDY up there, and check out the whole first chapter. And of course, what really gets me motivated toward putting out Aston's latest adventures is to see the book being sold and enjoyed. Pick up a copy! You'll be glad you did...
I'm reading this now -- so NO SPOILERS! :p
ReplyDeleteI was wondering about that... ;-)
ReplyDeleteOh, I know, I know what happens next!! Shhh... :) It was a great read indeed.
ReplyDeleteWhat happened before was a bit exciting too...but may have run afoul of the rules (plus, would have gone over the ten sentences :-P )...
ReplyDeleteI went over, this week. Shhh!
ReplyDeleteLot's of contributors this week (not many posts). : (
ReplyDeleteOh, and your 'word verification' is making me type naughty things again.
Shhh...I'll never tell. ;-)
ReplyDeleteApparently, word verification knew where Aston's mind was headed, and adjusted accordingly.
Trouble magnet, LOL
ReplyDeleteGreat six.
Definitely! One of these days, I think he's going to have to look for trouble and somehow not find it. That would be quite the twist...
ReplyDeleteThanks, everyone, for stopping by!
He's got morals?
ReplyDeleteShhhh, don't tell anyone. He doesn't like to admit it, but when push comes to shove, they usually come out to play.
ReplyDeleteI loved it! Good sexual tension. ;)
ReplyDeleteIf there's anything Aston has a lot of, it's sexual tension. Ask anyone... ;-)
ReplyDeleteThanks for stopping by, all!
Leaves me wanting more! Good snippet!
ReplyDeleteThanks for stopping by!
ReplyDeleteWOW! Aston denies the woman?! Now THERE'S a man! xD
ReplyDeleteUh oh. The best friend's daughter is a no no, Aston. Fun snippet!
ReplyDeleteYeah, Diana, it *is* a little bizarre...but as Diane mentioned, it *is* his best friend's daughter, which may not stop a lot of guys, but you'd have to read the book to see her father... ;-)
ReplyDeleteWow, what restraint! (or is he worried what the best friend would do to him?!) :-P
ReplyDeleteIf I mentioned that, it might be a spoiler for Cary... ;-)
ReplyDeleteThanks for stopping by!
