A short while later Ian strolled out the French doors and started down the balcony steps to join her. She was bending down and snapping a withered rosebud from its stem. “It only hurts for a moment,” she told the bush, “and it’s for your own good. You’ll see.” With an embarrassed little smile she looked up at him. “It’s a habit,” she explained. “It obviously works,” he said with a tender smile, looking at the way the flowers bloomed about her skirts. “How can you tell?” “Because,” he said quietly as she stood up, “until you walked into it, this was an ordinary garden.” Puzzled, Elizabeth tipped her head. “What is it now?” “Heaven.” Elizabeth’s breath caught in her chest at the husky timbre of his voice and the desire in his eyes. He held out his hand to her, and, without realizing what she was doing, she lifted her hand and gave it to him, then she walked straight into his arms. For one breathless moment his smoldering eyes studied her face feature by feature while the pressure of his arms slowly increased, and then he bent his head. His sensual mouth claimed hers in a kiss of violent tenderness and tormenting desire while his hands slid over the sides of her breasts, and Elizabeth felt all her resistance, all her will, begin to crumble and disintegrate, and she kissed him back with her whole heart.”", "creator": { "@type": "Person", "name": "Judith McNaught" }, "url": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/judith-mcnaught/he-finished-his-meeting-a-few-minutes-later-and-almost-rudely-ejected/", "image": { "@type": "ImageObject", "@id": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/i/bf4/judith-mcnaught-687_business_he-finished-his-meeting-a-few-minutes-la_149526.png", "contentUrl": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/i/bf4/judith-mcnaught-687_business_he-finished-his-meeting-a-few-minutes-la_149526.png", "url": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/i/bf4/judith-mcnaught-687_business_he-finished-his-meeting-a-few-minutes-la_149526.png", "width": 1080, "height": 1080, "caption": "“He finished his meeting a few minutes later and almost rudely ejected his business acquaintances from his…” — Judith McNaught", "creditText": "SMS4Smile Quotes", "creator": { "@id": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/#organization" } } } } ] }, { "@type": "CollectionPage", "@id": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/about/kissed-heart/judith-mcnaught/#webpage", "url": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/about/kissed-heart/judith-mcnaught/", "name": "Kissed Heart Quotes by Judith McNaught", "isPartOf": { "@id": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/#website" }, "mainEntity": { "@id": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/about/kissed-heart/judith-mcnaught/#itemlist" }, "primaryImageOfPage": { "@id": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/i/bf4/judith-mcnaught-687_business_he-finished-his-meeting-a-few-minutes-la_149526.png" }, "description": "1 Kissed Heart quotes by Judith McNaught.
