This week, my swoon is The Accident Season by Moïra Fowley-Doyle!
Sam kisses me. It starts with the lightest touch of lips on lips, tilted heads, short of breath, We hover as if on a threshold. My heart beats hard. Then our mouths press together. Our eyes close and our lips open and Sam very slowly slips his tongue into my mouth, and when I touch it with my own, he deepens the kiss, wrapping his arms around my waist and pulling me tight toward him. Our mouths become my whole world. Warm lips, gentle tongues, quiet breath, wild hunger. My hands curl in his hair. We are connected lips to lips, chest to chest, knee to knee like we're just one person. I can feel the kiss in my mouth and in my mind, as a crazy wanting in my heart, as butterflies in my tummy and as a great ache stretching lower, all the way to my toes. I can feel it in my heartbeat and in every bruise. I've never been kissed like this.
- ARC, pages 182-183
Now that is a kiss! Love the part about wild hunger.
