"We both lied about that." He kissed her softly again, lingering over the sweet torment.

My favorite thing about this scene is Noah and Roxy breaking their own rules. It's fun to see two characters wake up. =) There is a 50-copy giveaway going on for USA residents, ending on December 9th!
Sounds like real life.

I think I have found out that I would not like the writing in a lot of the romances you have read, hahaha :D I'm way too picky about my writing. Ugh. But yay for enjoying this book and the swoons :D Hugs.
