Sliding his hands under my shirt, Josh massaged my back before grabbing my ass and pulling me toward him. His mouth met mine in a slow, easy kiss, and when he lifted me, I wrapped my legs around his

ass as he moved the other one to fist my hair. Not letting me go, he moved into the living room. I felt the sofa brush my legs as he lowered me onto it. I groaned as he let go of me. I couldn't see
