Howard was the epitome of a man who, despite his aloof and unattainable demeanor, could speak with an undercurrent of sensuality that sent a flush to Gwendolyn’s cheeks.

“What about… trying mouth–to–mouth again? You can teach me this time,” he suggested, locking his gaze with hers.

“That’s not true.” Gwendolyn denied.

“Then I won’t hold back.” Without another word, he captured her swollen lips in a kiss that was all–consuming, leisurely, as if he had all the time in the world to unravel her.

Gwendolyn’s mind felt sluggish, intoxicated by the faint scent of his cologne and the subtle aroma of the whiskey on his breath.
