Swoon Thursday #2
Swoon Thursday is a weekly event hosted by YA Bound.
From the book you're currently
reading, or one you just finished, tell me what made you swoon. What got your
heart pounding, your skin tingling, and your stomach fluttering. Shout it out on
twitter with the hashtag #YABound, post it here in the comments or grab the
button above and share it on your blog.
I chose this week's Valentine's Day swoon from Patricia Briggs' Iron Kissed, which I finished a few days ago. This is the third book in the Mercedes Thompson series.
"He took two steps forward, wrapped a hand around the back of my neck, and held me for his kiss. I hadn't expected it- not while he was still so close to changing. I'm sure that's why I didn't pull out of his hold. The first touch of his lips was soft, tentative, asking where his hands had demanded. The man was diabolical. I could have resisted force, but the question of his kiss was an entirely different matter.
I leaned into him because he asked with the light touch and the gentle withdrawal of his lips that begged me to follow where he led. The heat of his body, welcome in the over-cooled house, rewarded me as I leaned closer to him, as did the hard planes of his body, so I was drawn to press even tighter against him."
