Swoon Thursday #48
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 I'm swooning over Taking Something by Elizabeth Lee! I never thought Nick would win me over like he did, but holy crap! Seeing him in this book completely changed everything I thought I knew about him! Be sure to stop back by tomorrow for my blog tour stop!
"I scooped her up, wrapping her legs around my waist, our lips never parting and walked up to the bedroom. I'd always been a seize the moment kind of guy and this was one moment I didn't want to miss. I carefully lowered her to the mattress. "Don't stop," she whispered as I pulled my lips from hers and watched her dark hair fall across the bedspread. The moonlight spilled through the windows in my room, casting a soft light across her face. She was breathtaking. The quiet sexiness of her lying there, her eyes asking me to love her. She reached her hand up and caressed my face. "Can we forget about everything else for one night?" she asked, her eyes pleading and hesitating all at the same time."

Ooo, I've never heard of this book or author! I love that one line though - about the "quiet sexiness". That sounds nice :) Great swoon choice!

Yes don't stop Nick!! I'm a bad Belle, cause I still haven't read this series yet *hangs head in shame* I know Nick is kind of the 'bad guy' in the first book, and I love it when an author can turn that around and make me like them...sounds like she did with Nick!
ReplyDeleteAww! It's ok Amy. I can't wait until you do get to these though. You'll really love them. EL is a ton of fun.
DeleteLeave 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.
