This week, my swoon is Resonance by Erica O'Rourke!
His mouth was gentle and sweet and tentative, and then less tentative. He tasted like spiced honey, soothing and stirring all at once, his hands weaving through my hair and sliding along my neck, my skin glowing wherever he touched. I opened my eyes for the briefest second, but my vision blurred, want and tears and joy making it impossible to see. My blood sparkled, so buoyant I thought I might fly away. I pulled him onto the bed with me, anchoring myself with his weight, kissing him so deeply I lost track of where I ended and Simon began.

I love this series! This particular excerpt is from a rather emotional scene, one of my favorites of the book :)
Nice swoon. It certainly does seem like there is a lot of emotion there. I'm not familiar with this series. I'm thinking that maybe I should check it out.
