It’s never too late to reignite an old flame.
She’s the woman he’s always wanted.
He’s the man she’s always dreamed about.
Now at their ten-year high school reunion, there’s nothing stopping Harper Webb and Mason Shaw from reigniting those feelings and having each other at last. At least until the weekend ends.
They fit together in every way. But their lives are in different places. Can they make a fantasy weekend into something more?
Excerpt: ***Warning! Steamy content ahead!***
“Harper, it’s me. Please let me in
so we can talk about this.”
The carpeted floors in the rooms
didn’t allow him to hear her approach, but he heard the soft click of the lock
as she unlatched it. When she pulled the door open, she looked past him down
the hall in one direction and then the other. Seeing they were alone, she
grabbed the front of his shirt and pulled him into her room.
“What’s going on?” Mason asked as
she locked the door behind them.
She turned back to him. “Just making
sure Alicia isn’t around.”
“About that...” Before he could
continue, Harper pushed him back, and he toppled onto the bed.
“She ambushed you,” Harper said,
explaining for him. “I know.”
“You do? Then why did it seem like
you were furious with me?”
She stepped toward the bed,
positioning her leg between his. “Because that’s what I wanted Alicia to think.
She gave me this sob story about how she loved you in high school, but you were
into me. She even said you cried out my name in a moment of passion.” She
laughed. “I actually believed her.”
“That’s because it’s true,” Mason
confessed, feeling his cheeks warm.
Harper cocked her head. “You really
did that?”
He nodded, not wanting to say it
aloud again. “It’s not something I’m proud of. I know now that I never should
have dated her, but at the time I figured she was looking to raise her social
status and I was trying to pass the time until you and Rick split up. It seemed
like a fair trade.”
Harper lowered herself on top of
him. “So you were thinking of me while you were...?”
He could tell she didn’t want to
finish the statement, so he nodded again. “I know it’s awful, but I was a dumb
kid at the time.”
She dipped her head so her mouth was
mere centimeters from his. “It is
awful. But it’s also the sweetest thing in a way. I had no idea your feelings
for me were so strong.”
Mason placed his hands on her hips,
pulling her harder against him. “You wore watermelon lip gloss freshman year
but stopped using it because Rick didn’t like the taste of it.”
Her head jerked back. “How did you
know that?”
“Rick’s locker was near mine. He
liked to talk. I figure most of what he said was made up, nothing but stories
to make him look better. But there were a few I knew were true.”
“What else did he say?” She lowered
herself to her elbows, her chest pressing down on his.
Mason wasn’t about to tell her that
Rick had boasted about the number of times they’d supposedly had sex each week.
Or that he’d claimed he’d had bite marks on his chest and shoulders from when
she’d stifle her screams in the heat of the moment. Mason had seen the guy
change for gym class. He’d never had a single bite mark on him.
“You love roses, but only when
lilacs aren’t in bloom. You can’t stand the smell of rain because it reminds
you of going fishing with your dad when you were little and watching him put
live worms on the hook. When you’re nervous, you rub your right ear lobe and
fidget with your earring. You hate milk chocolate and only eat dark. You—”
Before Mason could continue,
Harper’s lips descended on his. She kissed him with such passion he couldn’t
think straight. They were both breathing heavily when she pulled away and
looked into his eyes.
“I never knew. If I had...”
He pressed his finger to her lips.
“I know.” He removed his finger and nibbled on her lower lip. She cried out,
and he soothed the spot with his tongue. Her fingers lowered and gripped his
sides. He wrapped his arms around her and spun them so she was lying next to
him. With one hand, he lifted the hem of her shirt, trailing his fingers ever
so lightly against her stomach. She shuttered under his touch and kissed him
forcefully, her tongue dancing with his. Mason’s hand moved upward to cup her
breast, massaging it before pinching her nipple between his forefinger and
thumb. His mouth left hers and trailed down her neck. She shifted and, in one
swift movement, pulled her shirt over her head and tossed it aside. Mason
smiled and locked eyes with her before claiming her hard nipple with his mouth.
She gripped his head, holding him in place. He teased the nipple with his tongue
and teeth before switching to the other side.
Her hand reached down, rubbing
against his erection, stroking the length of it. He unbuttoned her jeans and
helped her shimmy out of them, all the while still kissing her chest. His hand
ran down her smooth stomach and settled between her legs. Her pelvis arched
toward him as if begging him to keep going. He responded by dipping a finger
inside her. Slowly. She moaned and pushed against his hand, deepening the
penetration. He trailed his tongue between her breasts and up her neck while
his finger moved in and out of her.
She undid his pants and used her
hands and then her feet to slip them off him. Mason found it incredibly sexy
how she managed to pull off the maneuver while still grinding her hips against
his hand movements. He kissed her, sweeping his tongue on hers.
He waited until she was on the brink
before he removed his hand and positioned himself on top of her. She gripped
his sides and pressed herself against him, begging him to finish what he’d
started.
