Robin, thanks for coming by today with Lucky. I want to let all my readers know that you and Lucky will be giving away copy of either A Night of Southern Comfort or His Southern Temptation to one lucky (heehee) commentor.
Cynthia – thanks for having me back! I am so excited to share my latest release, His Southern Temptation. In this story, Lucky Landon, knows what he wants—Taylor—and he pulls out all the stops to get her.
After a certain scene where impromptu skinny dipping was indulged in, I asked Lucky to tell me the things he’d take the next he wanted to take Taylor on a midnight swim.
LUCKY: Hey ya’ll. Robin asked me to stop by and offer my ideas of how to put together the sexiest skinny dipping date in history. I dare you to keep your clothes on when your man has all this waiting for you:
1. A soft, warm blanket to lie down on. I’d bring two so we can sleep under stars until dawn. Nothing is better than sex under the stars…unless it is sex in morning as the dawn breaks over the mountains.
2. A bottle, or two, of chilled bottles of wine and/or beer. Taylor’s favorite wine is a good chardonnay and beer…well, as long as it’s wet, cold, and alcoholic any beer is good enough for me.
3. A cold supper of fried chicken, potato salad and couple slices of my Aunt Dolly’s chocolate peanut butter pie from the Southern Comfort Diner. Nothing says romance like chocolate.
Now, the one thing I wouldn’t take is any music. All you need to set the right mood is sound of the cicadas in the night.
ROBIN: So, those are the top things Lucky would take. Would you go? Anything you’d like to add?
EXCERPT
He relaxed his stance enough for her to brush his abdomen with the back of her hand. His T-shirt was warm, soft, and clinging to the hard muscle underneath. He stiffened at her touch, his jaw tightening into a firm edge, eyes narrowed to slits of darkest blue in the dim light. She could almost hear the voice in his head rehearsing the million reasons why he was going to tell her no.
Taylor took a half-step closer, now able to fully explore the breadth of his chest with both hands. Lucky’s breath hitched when her fingernail grazed his nipple and she almost took pity on him when his heartbeat kicked up another notch. She was faring no better, this proximity was making her hands shake and the heat gathering in her belly was consuming her. Leaning up on tiptoe, she traced the line of his neck with her lips—not quite kissing, but enough pressure to leave goose bumps in her wake.
“Stay with me.” Now, she tasted him, punctuating her request with a small bite just below his ear followed by a moist kiss to soothe the burn. He tasted so good—male, spicy and accented by the tang of sweat. Her mouth watered as she mindlessly made her way to his mouth, unable to resist having more of what she’d sampled earlier on the parlor floor.
His lips were supple and open for her. Warm, wet mouth, tongue like velvet as it tangled with hers. The arousal from their earlier encounter was only a banked fire, never fully extinguished and now it flared back to life, making her burn. Her knees gave out and Taylor bunched his shirt in one hand, the other one hooking into the waistband of his jeans to keep from sliding down to the ground. One touch of his hard body and she couldn’t resist exploring further, her fingers dipping down to trace the rigid length of his cock through the soft denim. He was hot, filling her palm with the weight of his desire.
The duffle bag hit the floor with a thud, freeing Lucky to weave his fingers in her hair, tugging gently to tilt her head at an angle to align their mouths better for a deeper, wetter kiss. This one was dark, filled with need and years of lust as he forcefully controlled the depth and pressure of the kiss—his passion taking it to the sharp edge of total possession. She whimpered, the sound echoing off the walls and matching the trembling in her body as she threw herself into this moment with the man who’d haunted her dreams for half her life.
