She’s trying to move on, but the past won’t let her go.
I fell in love once.
It was a big mistake, but the biggest mistake of all was staying with him.
He pushed me around. He cheated and treated me like trash.
I don’t feel sorry for myself, because I let him.
But no more.
I moved out. I'm saving my stripper's salary for an education that will get me somewhere better.
But breaking the chains of a shitty past isn’t easy. He says I owe him. He says we aren’t done. I don’t care what he says anymore.
I do care about Adam.
But my history tells me I’m not the best judge of men. And the fact Adam’s been married four times tells me he probably isn’t a safe choice.
I need safe. I need better. I need out.
If the past is any indication of my future, getting out isn’t going to be easy.
“Kiss me.”
He didn’t need to be told twice. In seconds he was standing to his full impressive height and towed me up along with him. Adam released my hand and cupped my face. His hands engulfed my jaw but he was so gentle. His eyes swept over me like I was the most beautiful thing he’d ever seen and around us sparks flew like snowflakes in a blizzard.
Instead of crushing his mouth to mine like I expected, like I wanted, he took his time. His heated gaze dropped to my lips, then back to my eyes. His fingers spasmed against my head and tightened ever so slightly.
Slowly, slowly he lowered his head, cupping my jaw so that I could do nothing but hold still and wait for him to arrive.
The anticipation of his lips on mine was almost my undoing. Everything going on inside me head floated away. I became aware of the moment, of the quietness in the room, of the way my body swayed wanting to get closer.
Adam’s lips brushed over mine, a gentle caress, once, twice and then a third time. He lifted his head just slightly and stared down at me, his thumb climbed up and caressed my lower lip.
He smiled softly and then joined our lips once more.

HOSTED BY:
Finally it is Adam and Roxie's turn for a book and I have been waiting for what seems like AGES! Adam he is a big ole' flirt when it comes to Roxie, "his eyes dropped down to my mouth, igniting a slow burn in my center. "Maybe I'm just tired of you dancing for other men," he rumbled." He learns to hide his body's reactions to not scare his girl, "my d*** was so hard I thought the zipper on my pants might burst, and I was momentarily thankful her legs were around my waist because if she felt how desperately I wanted her, she might be alarmed." Roxie she had her cute moments especially when Adam's 'size' was involved, "I don't think you're going to fit," I blurted out, then slapped a hand over my mouth." There are times our girl wants to be in control and Adam doesn't mind one bit, "I'm going to drive today," she said as she wrapped her hand around my throbbing c*** with a wicked gleam in her eye." I was hoping for more sexual tension between Roxie and Adam like I had seen in Harlow and Cam's book so I was a tad disappointed there but otherwise I loved the book.
