One Last Chance_A Small-Town Romance
Page 29
“Enough. Much more of that and I’m gonna blow.”
She chuckled, her mouth rumbling against him. “I love when you let loose.”
She leaned over, her breasts pillowing against his chest, and snatched a condom out of the nightstand. After ripping the wrapper with her teeth, she held the protection out to him. Just when he reached for it, she yanked her hand back and rolled the condom onto the tip of his erection.
She then slowly, oh God, excruciatingly slowly, slid her hands down, unrolling the condom and squeezing him along the way.
He pulsed against her hand.
That was it. Enough playing around. He ripped her robe up and over her head, exposing her naked body. With his hands on her hips, he lifted her up. “This is not going to be slow,” he said as he thrust up and into her.
She moaned.
It was always so good with Maggie. She seemed to know exactly what he needed right when he needed it. Fast or slow, easy or rough. Other times, it was him taking the lead and meeting her needs.
She pushed up onto her knees, sliding him almost completely out of her, and then she dropped onto him again. She rose again, her channel clenching tighter with each stroke. He pressed his hand onto her belly and nudged her back, driving himself deeper into her and giving him perfect access to her breasts. He sat up and laved her nipple, running his tongue over the peaked nub while his fingers teased her. Around and around, circling as she rode him.
His groin tightened. He wasn’t going to last much longer. But no matter how much control he gave her, no way would he come before her. He lowered his hand and at the same moment he sucked hard on her nipple, he caressed her.
She screamed, her wetness coating his hand as she clenched his cock. His groin tightened and he pulsed his own release into her.
Maggie collapsed onto him, her hands on his chest and his arms loosely around her back. Her breathing evened out as she lay sprawled over him. She rarely cuddled and he appreciated the few minutes when she let down her guard and exposed some of the sensitive woman he knew was lurking just beneath the surface. He absently ran his hand along her back, barely feeling her soft skin beneath his fingers. Even a mind-blowing release with Maggie hadn’t quieted the angst that had brought him to her door in the first place.

I’m excited to see my first National Novel Writing Month (NaNoWriMo) novel coming to the pages for my readers. Bits and pieces of Rachel’s story had been coming together for me from the minute I started putting words to paper and I knew she had a special hero just waiting for her. But Sawyer didn’t make it easy - getting him to open up was like pulling teeth. But thanks to Maggie Blackbird for going scene-by-scene with me and really making Rachel and Sawyer come to life on the page.
Thanks to Jody Wallace of MeanKitty editing my longest novel yet. I love your sense of humor that you bring to editing and your flexibility in working with me and getting through One Last Chance in record time.
And thanks to Lynn Mullan for adjusting her schedule based on my editing delay and making sure every “i” was dotted and every “t” was crossed. I know I can count on her to find what my editor and I have glossed over after all the read-throughs.
Amanda Kelsey with Razzle Dazzle Designs designed my beautiful cover. I struggled with just the right couple to depict how I saw Rachel and Sawyer in my mind and this cover captures it well. When I see my characters in my mind, they are never “movie star” beautiful, so finding “everyday people” who really reflect my mind’s image is tough.
I wouldn’t be where I am in my writing career without the wonderful ladies and gentlemen on Romance Divas. They are there to give me feedback, turn me around when I’m headed in the wrong direction, and celebrate successes with me. It’s my writing home on the internet. Many of those ladies have given hours out of their busy lives to respond to questions and share their knowledge with others.
