Swoon Thursday #5
Swoon Thursday is a
weekly event hosted by YA Bound
Here's what you do:
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.
This week's swoon comes from Shana Abé's The Sweetest Dark, which I received as an e-ARC from NetGalley and Random House.
"His eyes were closed; his lips were parted. I sank closer to him, to the heated contours of his uncovered skin, his chest, his shoulders, up to his peaceful face. I touched him, and his hands lifted to touch me back. He inhaled deep and I became the oxygen that nourished him. I was inside him. I was outside him. My lips were on his and our kiss pulled me back into weight, but not as a stone."
"He tried to be careful about it. He tried to limit himself to a barely there touch, just his mouth to hers, nothing alarming, nothing assumed. But her lips were even softer than he'd dreamed, and with their bodies this close her scent wrapped around him in a heady rush."
What made you swoon this week?
