Excerpt of Love, Lies, and British Spies by Selena Laurence

"I promise I'll take you over to their offices tomorrow if you'll stay and watch my rehearsal now," he said softly, as he put his hands on her hips and drew her closer. "I'd really like to see your reaction to the new material before I have to put it out there in front of everyone tonight. Please stay?" he rumbled as he nipped soft kisses along her jawline and up to her earlobe. He then flicked his tongue along the aforementioned earlobe, eliciting a soft sigh from his rapidly melting wife.

"Wait...so, it's all right for you to work on our honeymoon but not me? You, don't play fair," she purred, stroking her hands down his chest as he buried his face in her hair.

"Ah, Eva, what's not fair is how insane I am over you," he whispered in her ear. "There's never a moment of the day when I'm not thinking of you, of what I want to do to you, of how you smell, how you taste." He stroked his hands down her cheeks and pulled back to look her in the eyes. "No matter what, love, never doubt that I am absolutely, mental over you. You're everything to me, you know that, right?"

"Mmm. And you show it so well. Do that little thing with my earlobe again?" she breathed back.
