Sample Saturday! A Knight of Honor

An excerpt from my medieval romance – A Knight of Honor – Slane and Taylor’s first kiss –

“Unless you want to lose more than your senses, you’ll return my affection and make it good,” she warned in a whisper, nibbling his ear.

Jolts of pleasure shot through Slane’s body.  His mind told him to resist her, but his body was already succumbing to her seduction.  Then his quickly fogging mind focused enough to realize what she was doing.  A desperate disguise: a harlot and her customer.

She slid her lips across his jaw and pressed her lips against his again, running her hands through his hair, clinging to him as if his lips were the only thing that could save her.  Slane wrapped his arms around her tiny waist, wanting to reassure her.  He knew it had to look convincing or they were done for.

He ran his tongue lightly across her lips, coaxing her to open to him.  He felt her quiver beneath him as she parted her lips.  She was either a very talented actress or…

Distantly, Slane heard footsteps march closer in the street, and he pulled her tighter against him.  He thrust his tongue deep into her mouth.  A soft groan escaped her parted lips.  A groan that sent his world tumbling end over end.
