Swoon Thursday (#123): The Heart of Betrayal by Mary E. Pearson

Swoon Thursday is a hot meme hosted by the fabulous ladies at YA Bound!


- From the book you’re currently reading, or one you just finished, tell us what made you SWOON. What got your heart pounding, your skin tingling, and your stomach fluttering

- Try to make the swoon excerpt 140 characters (or less), if you are going to tweet about it. Use the hashtag #YABOUND when tweeting


This week, my swoon is The Heart of Betrayal by Mary E. Pearson!


From Rafe's point-of-view

I spun, and there was Lia, pushing me up against the wall. "What are you doing here?" I said. "You can't -"

She drew my face to hers and kissed me, warm and long, her fingers raking through my wet hair, and her breathing heavy. I pulled away. "You have to leave. Someone might -" But then my mouth came down on hrs again, hard and hungry, sending a far different message than the one I was trying to convey. My hands slid around her waist, traveled up her back, soaking in all the lost time and days that I had wanted to hold her.

    Holy moly, the sheer swoonosity of that scene was enough to make me, well, swoon!
    I haven’t read the first book yet, so I’ll probably have to read that one before getting to this scene, haha :P Can’t wait and happy reading!
