His Christmas Cara, November 2004
e-Book
Blackness wrapped around them, a sheltering embrace as his
body moved over hers.
His hunger had an edge tonight.
He’d come to her late, appearing in the darkened doorway
of her room and she’d barely had a chance to catch her
breath before he was there, strong hands slowly pulling away
the covers and then the mattress gave way under his weight.
Now, as his cock swelled inside her, as one palm cupped
her hip and angled her up to meet each driving thrust, he
buried his face against her neck as he muttered her name.
She gasped out his and had to bite back the words she
knew he wouldn’t want to hear.
Tangling her hands in his hair, she arched and whimpered
as he shifted his angle, moving so that the head of his cock
stroked the bundled bed of nerves buried deep inside her and
that small adjustment had her panting. Heat blistered her
and pleasure consumed her.
“Tate!”
He surged against her, harder. Faster.
She climaxed around him, muffling her sob against his
shoulder.
His mouth covered hers, swallowing down that ragged,
breathless sound.
Then he stiffened, coming inside her.

She wanted that purse.
Ali Holmes didn’t covet a lot of things, but as she stood
behind the counter of the Madison Pizza Company, she decided
she was going to let herself covet that purse.
It was a safe obsession. Vivid, murder-red, butter-soft
leather. It cost almost as much as she made in a week—it
would have to. It was a Coach purse. She had an eye for
those things, mostly because she obsessed over them.
Drooled. Coveted.
Sometimes when she went shopping in Louisville or
Lexington, she’d even let herself pet them.
But she wouldn’t ever buy one. How in the hell could she
buy a purse like that when she could barely afford to put
food on the table?
It was a safe enough obsession, because she knew she
wouldn’t ever go and spend money she couldn’t afford to
waste on something like a purse, not when her two boys
needed shoes, not when she needed to figure out how to fix
the roof, and not when she was still scrambling to pay the
bills for the appendectomy she’d had to have last winter.
The owner of that gorgeous red purse stood in the
doorway, blinking as her eyes adjusted to the dim light
after being out in the bright sunny afternoon.
Ali gave herself another second to lust as she gathered
up a couple of menus and tried not to notice the way
somebody was grinning at her.
“If you keep staring at the purse, she’s going to think
you plan on mugging her.”
Just the sound of that voice was enough to make her heart
skip, and maybe it made her knees a little weak, although
she managed not to let it show as she turned her head and
looked into the dark brown eyes of one Tate Bell, her other
obsession.
He wasn’t so safe.
Lately, she was starting to think she might have to give
him up.
He was like too much chocolate, too much wine. She
wanted to gorge on him, but he was oh, so very bad for her.
If she could keep herself to just lusting after him, it
wouldn’t be an issue. Lust was nice. Lust was healthy. But
she’d let herself get lost in him. Lost herself to him.
Maybe that wouldn’t be so bad, if he could do the same.
