Swoon Thursday #23
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 Rachel Brookes' Just Breathe. I think it's time I introduced you to the sexy Tate. Hopefully you checked out my character interview with him on Monday, but just in case you didn't... Let me give you a little taste of the 'Tate Connors Effect'.
"His lips crushed into mine with such force that I stumbled back and crashed into the set of drawers on the far wall. I winced as the sharp corner dug into my back but that was soon forgotten when I felt his tongue pressing against my lips, begging to be let in. I opened my mouth and his tongue met mine in fevered hunger. His hands cupped my butt, lifting me effortlessly and sitting me on top of his drawers. His teeth nipped at my bottom lip as he used his knee to open my legs as he stepped against my body. His mouth continued to engulf mine and his assault on my lips didn't falter."
So, yeah. What made you swoon this week?
