Caressing Quote by Elle Kennedy
““You okay?” he murmured, caressing her lower back with one hand. The heat of her skin was driving him crazy, making it difficult to think, let alone talk. “I’m fine. Great, actually. No, better than great.” Her voice trembled slightly, but her gaze now shone with passion and determination. She wrapped her arms around his neck and ran her fingers along his jaw. “I need you to do something for me, Carson.” It was hard to concentrate with her stroking his face like that, but he managed to ask, “What is it?” “I need you to rock my world. Can you do that for me?” The words were laced with steely fortitude and teasing challenge, and again, that twinge of desperation. He got the feeling something was up with her. That she was upset, or pissed off—trying to get back at an ex perhaps? Maybe, but at this point, he didn’t care. She wanted her world rocked? Well, he was definitely the man for that job.””

![“I dont like watching couples in movies where the man is caressing the womans hair while theyre lying on the couch. Thats a fake version of [marriage]. So it was fun to do a playful and more truthful portrayal with heightened conflict., on her role in Knocked Up.” quote by Leslie Mann](https://sms4smile.com/quotes/img-quotes/487/leslie-mann-8943_caressing_i-dont-like-watching-couples-in-movies-w_398282.jpg)
