Lovin' los libros

A book blog dedicated to young adult and new adult novels

Swoon Thursday #31

By 1:00 AM

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.
 
I just finished Courtney Cole's If You Leave and holy moly! I want an Army Ranger and I want one NOW! Provided he is as sexy as Gabe! :D
 
"Reaching up, I press my lips softly to his, tentative at first, enjoying the taste of salt that lingers there, loving the way his chest is so rock solid beneath my fingers. The kiss is so soft, so gentle; barely there. But the intensity of having wanted it for days makes it fierce. His lips ignite a fire that flashes through my mouth and down into my chest and buries itself between my legs. It roars to life there, burning bright, the flames licking up into the rest of me. Gabriel's strong arms automatically close around me as I deepen the kiss, plunging my tongue desperately into his mouth, tangling with his. I glance up and his dark eyes are open, staring into mine."
(eARC 110)
 
Whew! What are you swooning over this week?

    I love it when kisses start off all sweet and then heat up! Is this part of a series? Because I remember seeing it on a blog post, but don't remember if it is the second book to a series. Loved you swoon :D!

    I just read this book too, and holy shmoley, was it GOOD!! I just adored Gabe so much. What a beautiful tortured soul. And I loved that we saw so much of Pax and Mila too. I'm so in love with this series!

      Yes!! I'm so glad you loved it too Krista! Gabriel broke my heart, but I'm glad he got his HEA with Maddy. And the Pax and Mila scenes were adorable!

    Oooo, I like how he was looking intensely at her at the end. It sounds INTENSE. Or maybe EPIC :D

    Thanks for visiting my blog!

      :D If I had a kiss like that and the guy was looking at me that way- I probably would have passed out. LOL.

Leave me some comment love! And I will get around to commenting back!

My blog is an award-free blog, however, as I just do not have the time to follow-up.
