The new sensations overwhelmed Howard , sending shivers through his scalp and making his thoughts momentarily vanish But his body reacted before his mind could catch up .

Her lips were not just soft , but also sweet .

Howard froze , quickly pulling away from her .

He touched her face and asked .
