Excerpt from The Summer of Us

​I pulled into the garage, wondering if Sunny was still asleep in my bed. Part of me hoped she was. She worked too hard, and I wanted to spoil her today.

But entering the house, I had my answer. All I could smell was biscuits. I found Sunny, not in my bed, but in the kitchen, wearing one of my dress shirts, the tails hanging down to her knees, and a pair of my heavy socks. Her hair was pulled into a ponytail, her face free from makeup, and she looked adorable.

She looked up as I came around the corner, her welcoming smile bright. I headed straight for her, catching her in my arms and lifting her off the ground. I crashed my mouth to hers and kissed her long, hard, and passionately. She plunged her hand into the hair at the nape of my neck, kissing me back with equal fervor. I eased back, dropping my face to her neck with a groan.

“You have no idea what seeing you in my kitchen is doing to me right now.”

She wrapped her legs around my waist, laughing low in her throat. “I think I can, um, feel your reaction.” She rubbed against me. “I think you’re happy to see me. Or your cell phone is in your pocket,” she deadpanned.

“Baby, my cell phone doesn’t take up that sort of real estate.”

She giggled, the sound lilting and strange in my house. I liked it. I was about to kiss her again when the timer on the oven went off and she pushed away.

“Cockblocked by biscuits,” I muttered and set her on her feet.

“Your father did the same sort of thing.”

I froze, narrowing my eyes at her, the biscuit now dust in my mouth. I swallowed and cleared my throat. “You think I’m like my father? I didn’t do it to hurt anyone for any sort of gain. I wanted Abby safe.” I tapped the top of the wooden table, driving my point home. “He deserved what he got. I could have done far worse.”

She bit her lip, sadness washing over her face. “That’s what frightens me, Linc.”

It Started With A Kiss in Melanie Moreland's upcoming release!

It Started With a Kiss is Melanie Moreland's upcoming January 23rd Romantic Comedy release.  
Daniel will make you smile in an INVITING SNEAK PEEK where a kiss isn't just a kiss!    

Picture
A slow smile, indulgent and sweet, curled Daniel’s lips. The lips that had ignited a fire inside me so hot, I was surprised I wasn’t a pile of ash at his feet. Those lips I wanted to feel back on mine. He stood up straight and pulled off his glasses, pushing them up into his hair. 

“May I?” he murmured. “They were getting in the way.” Not even waiting for an answer, he reached out and tugged off mine, folding the arms closed. He looked around, no doubt for somewhere to put them, and I opened the deep pocket of my skirt, letting him drop them inside. 

He wasn’t done with me.


Thank God.

He inched forward, his long fingers sliding up my neck and into my hair, caressing my skin with gentle, adoring touches. His minty breath washed over my face, igniting my passion. “I need closer,” he murmured. “I need more.” He bent his head, bowing his back to lower himself. My arms shot out, wrapping around his neck, bringing his mouth down to mine. 

Time stood still. 

The room disappeared around us. 

There were no bright lights or camera filming. 

No Beth.

Only him. 

Only us. 

Warm lips met mine. Full, firm, but gentle. His tongue swept inside, sliding over mine sensuously. 

A small moan escaped my lips as he worked my mouth. His taste was overwhelming—sweet, hot, and something so unique—something so Daniel; I knew I would never get enough of it. 

Slow and gentle became deep and carnal. Teasing and light became powerful and hot. He possessed me. Commanded me. Wrecked me. 

I gave myself to him. All of me.

​
Melanie delights in a good romance story with some bumps along the way, but is a true believer in happily ever after. When her head isn’t buried in a book, it is bent over a keyboard, furiously typing away as her characters dictate their creative storylines to her, often with a large glass of wine keeping her company.
