“Well, that wasn’t so bad, was it, love?” he said and kissed her hand.
“No, that wasn’t really that bad at all.” She smiled at him. He came up to sit beside her then, pulling her closer to him.
“I do love you,” he said as his hands slid down to her slightly swollen belly.
“And our baby, too?” she teased.
He laughed. “Of course our baby, too,” he said. He nuzzled the nape of her neck. “You smell nice, just like lavender,” he mumbled and ran his tongue over her sensitive skin. She giggled at the pure pleasure he was giving her.
“That’s because I used lavender soap.” She shifted her arms and wrapped them around his neck. His mouth scorched her skin with his kisses.
“You are my guardian angel, you are my life, and you are my soul,” he moaned and caught her mouth. She opened her lips for him.
Yes, he was her lover, her protector, and he was her life and soul, too.

FALLING FOR SAKURA TRILOGY
One young woman.
Seven brothers.
When she falls in love with two,
which brother will she choose?
In Japan, Sakura is the beautiful cherry blossom that blooms vibrantly in spring and symbolizes the insightful Buddhist phrase mono no aware, which means the pathos of things, a metaphor for the ephemeral nature of life. FALLING FOR SAKURA is the story of Caucasian-Japanese Sakura, her journey to finding herself, and her torn love for two very different brothers, Sebastian and Darcy Princeton.
Orphan Sakura, with no last name, is accustomed to being rejected, hated, bullied, and unloved. When she is adopted by the wealthy Princeton family, her seven brothers refuse to accept her, and her two sisters constantly bully her. Instead of admitting defeat, she gladly takes on her new life with a brave face, working hard to earn her new siblings’ trust and love. Her endeavor, however, ultimately leads to a series of unfortunate incidents.
Now years later, the twenty-three-year-old beauty dreads the moment she once again has to meet the drop-dead gorgeous brothers, due to arrive for their cousin’s wedding. Dodging their very presence is next to impossible since the brothers, who have forgotten who she is entirely, are attracted to her like moths to a flame and thwart her escapes at every turn. This, of course, leads to ungodly, tempting situations, awakens forbidden feelings, and ignites old flames that have been suppressed and laid dormant for many years. When she finds them competing for her—NOT for her sisterly affection, which she still deeply craves, but for her love as a woman—she is torn between Sebastian Princeton, the brother who loves her and watches over her from a distance, and Darcy Princeton, the brother who was once her best friend and now secretly yearns for her forgiveness and her love once again.
