“I Don’t Mind When You Touch Me. ”
Her eyes widened, as if she were surprised by her own words.
He was touched by the admission. “A woman should enjoy her man’s kiss, not merely allow it. ” With her face bathed in the soft light of the moon streaking in through the window, she looked vulnerable.
“I’m not sure I know how to enjoy. ” Her words were brutally honest. “C-could you…”
He leaned closer, enclosing her with his body. “What would you like, piccola?”
“A kiss. Like it’s supposed to be,” she whispered.
Her words betrayed that, for her, kissing had never been a pleasure. One day soon, he’d find out who had abused her, but for tonight, he would kiss her as an innocent was meant to be kissed—with tenderness and just a stroke of passion.
Just enough to tantalize.
Dear Reader,
Welcome to another passion-filled month at Silhouette Desire. Summer may be waning to a close, but the heat between these pages is still guaranteed to singe your fingertips.
Things get hot and sweaty with Sheri WhiteFeather’s Steamy Savannah Nights, the latest installment of our ever-popular continuity DYNASTIES: THE DANFORTHS. USA TODAY bestselling author Beverly Barton bursts back on the Silhouette Desire scene with Laying His Claim, another fabulous book in her series THE PROTECTORS. And Leanne Banks adds to the heat with Between Duty and Desire, the first book in MANTALK, an ongoing series with stories told exclusively from the hero’s point of view. (Talk about finally finding out what he’s really thinking!)
Also keeping things red-hot is Kristi Gold, whose Persuading the Playboy King launches her brand-new miniseries, THE ROYAL WAGER. You’ll soon be melting when you read about Brenda Jackson’s latest Westmoreland hero in Stone Cold Surrender. (Trust me, there is nothing cold about this man!) And be sure to Awaken to Pleasure with Nalini Singh’s superspicy marriage-of-convenience story.
Enjoy all the passion inside!
