EXCERPT:
His lips were so close to mine. "Jack…"

"However, you've shown me there is more to life than fighting. I want to be with you, Eva."

And just like that, we had our first kiss. My lips parted like they were eyelids after a long, blissful sleep. His lips were so soft like an unexpected but welcomed embrace. I was a rose ripening under the warmth of sunlight. However, Jack was more like a wildfire than the somber rays of the sun. Desire burned within him like an overfed furnace.

Jack's hands brushed past my hips and onto the swell of my buttocks. My hands grabbed fistful of his tough, muscular chest. The passion locked within him had gone wild as nearly bowled me over. It was the destruction of the tension that had existed since he had met me.

Suddenly, Jack lifted me up and carried me in his arms. I stared at the unerring concentration in his eyes as he carried me to his room. As he laid me on his bed as if I was a newborn, he began to tug at my clothing. He wanted to get to the soft flesh encased within the cloth. The feeling was mutual as I pulled at his T-shirt. It felt carnal like I was cracking open an oyster to get at the succulent meat inside.
