If You Stay
By Courtney Cole
Beautifully Broken #1
Published February 5th 2013
I read my first Courtney Cole book last week and I had so much fun reading it and getting to know Pax... sigh! Anyway, here is a tease and the review will be on the blog today!!
As I slide my hands around to her hips, I can feel her pulse in my fingertips. I glance around and find my handprints on her abdomen.
“I’ve imprinted on you,” I tell her, laughing softly. “You’re mine now.”
And it’s true. She’s mine now. She might not know it yet, but it is true.
She swallows hard. I can hear her moist tongue in her mouth and I wish it was in mine. She twists around and her eyes meet mine. I drag my fingers up to her neck, holding her chin as I bring my lips to hers.
Slowly.
Painfully slow.
Her lips are warm and soft and she crushes them harder against me, turning until she’s pressed against me, naked and pliable. And I get my wish. Her tongue plunges into my mouth, quiet and needy.
She melts into me and I press my palms against her back, dragging her to my chest, holding her there tightly.

Oo, what a great swoon! I especially love when the guy declares the girl is his. I don't know what it is about that kind of statement, but it's always so swoon worthy!
