Excerpt:
Acting on a whim, I brought my hands up and pressed my palms against his cheeks. They burned like a fever. I wasn’t sure if I’d ever get used to that.
His black eyes latched onto mine. I waited as he struggled with something internally, pain and confliction clearly written across his face. Eventually, his expression shifted, the hard planes of his features softened into a sweet smile. As our faces drew closer, my breathing became ragged ...with anticipation. When he wet his lips, it was nearly my undoing. My chest heaved with expectation, trembling each time his breath crept across my skin. I looked into his eyes; the crimson specks were recessing, like a fading tide within a murky sea of black ink. They were hypnotizing.
“If I am under a trance, don’t ever rouse me,” I murmured.
His eyes glimmered just before he pressed his warm lips to mine. Our mouths moved together in perfect unison, as if they were molded to fit one another. The kiss deepened, and together we were swept away by our unraveling emotions, pawing at one another as though each other’s breath was the only oxygen we had.
When we finally parted for air, we both stood staring at the other, panting. Dominic took my hands, his touch warming me like a soothing balm.
He cast his eyes down to our intertwined fingers, his long lashes fanning out over his high cheekbones, and he said, “My fraying willpower makes it hard to walk away from you.”
"Then don’t,” I whispered.

About the Author: I work full-time as a zoo curator, so when I'm
not running a zoo, I'm trying to tame the one I live in! I have two
kids, and a husband who sometimes acts their age. I can usually be found
jamming to Elvis Presley tunes, or diligently chipping away at my
never-ending 'to be read' pile. I tend to gravitate toward anything
paranormal. I love creatures who fly and characters who sprout fur or
fangs. Sprinkle some romance and magic into the mix, and I'm a happy
girl!Author Links:
