This week, my swoon is from Rebel of the Sands by Alwyn Hamilton!
I yanked Jin back toward me. My knuckles skimmed over the edges of the sun tattooed over his heart. That was the last thing I noticed before I kissed him.
His jaw tensed in surprise for a moment; his hand gripped my arm hard enough to hurt. And then his body was flush against mine, pushing my back against the wall of the train.
I was a desert girl. I thought I knew heat.
I was wrong.
The contact sent a rush through me so sudden, I started to pull away before I caught fire. But Jin trapped my face in his hands. There was no nowhere to run to. Nowhere to go.
Nowhere I wanted to go.
- ARC, pages 113-114
