““You have a mouth made for kissing," he murmured, angling her to face him. "Did you know that?" She shook her head. "So soft and generous." Leaning in, he tipped her chin with the heel of his hand. "Sweet." "No man's ever called me sweet." "Has any other man kissed you?" Again, she gave a little shake of the head. "Well, then. That's why." He brushed his lips over hers, just lightly, sending pure sensation frizzing through her veins. He hummed with satisfaction. "You taste of ripe plums." She couldn't help it. She laughed. "Now that's just absurd." "Why?" "Because it's too early in the year for ripe plums." His husky chuckle shook them both. "You're entirely too logical for your own good. A thorough kissing can mend that." "I don't want mending." "Perhaps not. But I think you do want kissing." He nuzzled the curve of her cheek, and his voice dropped to a sensual whisper. "Don't you?" She did. Oh, she did.””
