going on… When Lily finally agrees to marry Drew she didn’t think she would be
signing up for crazy jealous women to show up at her shop threatening her… but
that is just a small price to pay for what Drew is offering…
Lilly throws herself into planning
the perfect small and intimate ceremony for her and Drew… all of this while
getting to know each other and exploring that hot and steamy chemistry they
share…
Ok I will stop now or I will give
away the rest of the story…
I loved these 2 books. They complimented
each other to the max. Book 1 was a
little short but book 2 totally made up for it… I liked how the author
described each and every character no matter how small their part was I always
felt like I knew who and what she was talking about… I will be giving this
series a 5/5 stars… It is completely worth it and I can guarantee you won’t
want to put it down until you finish it!!!
When I reach my room, I stop short at one of the most beautiful sights I’ve ever seen.
Lily is curled up on my bed, her hair splayed out on the pillow, and she’s sleeping. She looks so peaceful and content; my dick twitches at the thought of burying myself inside her. My heart rate speeds up and I realize I really like this view. I want to have it view every day. Fuck. There go my plans to keep things simple. I’m falling in love with Lily. I didn’t see that coming, but I kind of like the idea. As I change my clothes, I wonder how this woman got under my skin so quickly.
I know I should let her sleep, but I have to touch her to figure out if what I’m feeling is real, if I want to put my heart on the line again and risk it being crushed. I climb carefully on the bed and she rolls toward me, but doesn’t open her eyes. I brush a few strands of hair away from her face and she smiles. That smile pushes me over the edge. I know I want this woman in my life, and I’m going to do what I can to keep her. It’s a foreign feeling, one I’ve fought for years, but it feels right. I pull her into my arms. She makes a small moaning sound and curls into me. She’s soft where I’m hard and we fit together like we were made for each other. I relax and get lost in the rhythm of her breathing. Soon, I’m dozing, too.
