“You are, I’m just pointing you in the right direction,” Cannon said resolutely. “Tulips for the centerpieces… I don’t even…”

“This again!?” Kimberley gasped, a wide smile on her lips as she twisted herself around on his lap to straddle him. “Do you really want to start talking about the
centerpieces
again!?”

“What, you want to wrestle for it?” he asked with a quirked brow, obviously more than ready to go a few rounds with her.

“Don’t you have practice coming up?” she asked, settling in so she was rubbing up against his bulge, a knowing smirk on her lips.

“I’m sure Coach will understand. I’m a man in love, after all,” he said, the makings of a growl entering into his voice.

“Uh-huh,” she mocked, leaning in a little so her lips were inches from his. “Because that excuse worked so well yesterday.”

“Well I guess I just have to be fast then,” he said with a huff, before their lips crushed together for one maddening, lingering kiss.

When Cannon pulled away, Kimberley’s eyes were hazy with need. She found herself being thrown over his shoulder as he stood up from the chair, making her gasp. He smacked her lightly on the ass, his arm looped around her long legs as he carried her straight towards the bedroom.

“You’re never fast!” she protested half-heartedly.

“Take it up with management,” Cannon replied blithely.

Kimberley grinned. Perks of loving a man like Cannon – things were never boring!

BEAR NO LOSS EXCERPT

 

Her nails scraped against his scalp, curling around his blond hair, and he didn’t mind it one bit. Everything about this woman so far had been
just
right. From how she’d gotten so cutely flustered when he’d bought her a drink down at the bar in downtown Cheyenne, to how she’d blushed when he told her she was beautiful, to how she became this moaning little wildcat when he had two fingers up her pussy and his lips on her pale, blemish-free skin.

His kind of woman, through and through. A lady in the street and the exact opposite in bed.

I should come to Cheyenne more often,
he thought almost languidly as she jolted upright, her body tensing and her eyes wild as he thrust two fingers inside of her again, twisting them and watching with warm amusement as her eyes rolled back in her head in response to it.

“Don’t… stop…” she hissed, her hands clutching at the sheets now and her skin dappled with sweat.

He could feel her pulsing around his fingers and there wasn’t a force on Earth that could have made him stop. Hovering over her on his knees, on top of her frilly, flowery covers, with her pleasure completely controlled by his fingertips, was
exactly
where Memphis Corley wanted to be. It was made better by the fact that she had
no
idea who he was.

“I don’t intend to, sugar,” he said, his voice a deep, languid murmur—a gift of his Southern upbringing. “Not before you cum for me again.”
