Siera London
Excerpt from Forbidden Attraction
Sarah leaned forward and kissed him on the cheek .
“ You ’ re sweet , Lance . I ’ ll be fine with the ice and elevation .” He ’ d placed bed pillows behind her back and under her left leg . “ I ’ ll be out of your hair soon enough .”
Speaking of hair , hers looked soft , like those twisty bread sticks that melt in your mouth , butter soft just the way her lips felt against his skin . “ What was that for ?” he asked . She blushed a pretty rosette and he grimaced . Now , she wanted to play shy ? This woman was difficult . Impersonating a drunken cupid at the zip lining park , refusing medication , and kissing a guy for sitting down .
She fell back against the couch . “ For trying to take care of me . It ’ s kind and you ’ re sweet .” She waved his hand away . “ I still don ’ t want your gag pills .”
She blatantly refused his help , but somehow he ’ d earned a kiss for his efforts . Maybe , he could get the hang of this understanding women thing . “ So , you kiss men who are kind and helpful ?” Her face scrunched . “ Yes ... what ? No ,” she stammered . “ Yes to kind men . But , no to helpful men .” Her mouth fell open . “ Stop . Your man logic is baffling ,” she laughed .
Sarah thought him confused ? She ’ d kissed him for offering pills that she refused . Of the two , he was the least confusing , yet the most perplexed .
“ Alright , let me clarify .” Without taking his eyes off her , he leaned forward , his face close enough to feel the warmth of her breath on his lips . She smelled of sweet spice and clean rain .
“ What are you doing ?” she rasped , voice husky .
