and then he crushed his mouth against
hers in a demanding kiss that left her panting. When he retreated, she shivered
with delight. “Prove to me your need hasn’t lessened. Show me how desirable I
am.”
He yanked her legs higher and plunged
into her with one long, delicious stroke. He slid in and out in a rhythm that
left her dizzy with yearning. As if he could read what she didn’t say, he moved
faster, his movements coming harder, until her teeth clenched and she raked at
his backside while struggling to hold off a bit longer.
The slide of his flesh against hers was
too much to bear. The pressure built and her body coiled inward with need.
Small waves of pleasure rolled from her core outward until the pleasure was
deliciously painful. She shuddered again and again, her heart hammering, her
senses reeling.
A ragged grunt came from him, and he
curled his fingers harder into her flesh, holding her in place as his body
tensed and his warm seed spilled inside her. His sweat-slicked body came down
over her, their hearts pounding together in the silence. After a time, he
rolled to his side and brought her with him into the cocoon of his arm. Her
limbs felt too heavy to move, but she had a confession to make. She cleared her
throat, moved towards his chest and toyed with the springy hair there.
He settled a large hand over hers. “What
is it, my love?”
“I hope we made a child tonight. I know
you need an heir, and I don’t want to ever disappoint you.” She’d not voiced
her fear out loud yet. Three months of lovemaking and nary a child. “What if
I’m barren?”
“I wouldn’t care.” He caressed her head.
“You’re all I want. All I need. Anything more is a boon to a life I’d given up
on.”
Happiness burst within her. “I love
you.”
“And I you.” His voice was drowsy.
A warm glow flowed through her. She had
a life she’d never thought possible and the man beside her was the reason. She
snuggled against Nick. He loved her, cherished her and valued her. At last, she
had a true family.

My Fair Duchess,
A Once Upon A Rogue Novel, Book
After years of playing the rake to hide a dark family secret,
the Duke of Aversley feels tainted beyond redemption and cynical beyond repair.
Never does he imagine hope will come in the form of a quirky, quick-witted lady
determined to win the heart of another gentleman.
Thanks to a painfully awkward past, Lady Amelia De Vere long ago
relinquished the notion she was a flower that had yet to blossom. But when her
family faces financial ruin and the man she has always loved is on the verge of
marrying another, she’ll try anything to transform herself to capture her
childhood love and save her family―including agreeing to participate in a
bet between her brother and the notorious, dangerously handsome Duke Of Aversley.
Bound by the bet, Amelia and Aversley discover unexpected
understanding and passion beyond their wildest dreams, if only they can let go
of their pride, put trust in each other and chance losing their hearts.
