Stone Romance (Stone Passion #2) by A.C. Warneke Read Free Book Online

with fear because the last man she loved to distraction was taken from her and she didn’t want to fall in love, not with someone like Rhys. She just wanted sex….
    “ Shh ,” he murmured gently, pressing soft kisses against her neck, her temple as he tightened his hold on her. “Don’t be afraid, Jenna; I’m not going to abandon you.”
    Smiling shakily, her eyes glistened with heartfelt tears. His voice was so tender and sincere, how could she not adore him, just a little bit? Pulling her hands out of his pants, she rested her palms against the bare skin of his chest. “You don’t know that.”
    “ I do know.” At her look of disbelief, he grinned, “ There’s so much that you don’t know,” he lamented, hugging her closer. Resting his cheek against her head, brushing his thumb over the curve of her cheek, the heat of his skin leaving a trail of warmth in its wake, he sighed, “So much. It’s insane but I want to give you everything .”
    Rolling her eyes at his romantic foolishness, she kissed his thumb as it passed by her lips, “You haven’t even kissed me. At least, not on the lips.”
    “Allow me to rectify that most egregious of mistakes.” He bent his head and she could feel his smile against her cool lips and it made her want to smile. Rhys made her smile. When he spoke, his breath twined its way into her mouth and even that made her smile, “You have the most kissable lips, Jenna.”
    “Then shut up and kiss them,” she murmured, curling her fingers into the lapels of his opened shirt and pulling his body closer to hers, wanting to feel the length of him against her.
    “Mommy!”
    Hearing her name in Ferris’s sweet voice brought her crashing back to reality and she lurched away from Rhys, her face burning with mortification. But she had momentarily forgotten the fact that she was buttoned into Rhys’s coat and she had to wait while he set her free.
    Smoothing her hands over the knit hat on her head, she met her sister’s laughing eyes as Melanie strode over with Ferris, Vaughn right next to her. With her face in flames, she zipped up her jacket and mumbled, “I was cold and he was warming me up.”
    “It is awfully cold out here,” Lenni grinned, winking at Jenna. “We didn’t mean to interrupt but the fireworks were over and we thought you might be ready to head home.”
    Jenna looked over her shoulder and frowned; while there were a few people milling around, most were starting to head towards to their cars, eager to get out of the cold, even the strange little man was gone. Surrounded by Rhys’s heat she hadn’t even noticed how much further the temperature had dropped .
    Crossing her arms over her breasts, she looked at Rhys and knew exactly what he was thinking as he stared at the region of her breasts, a slight flush coloring his cheekbones. She had to bite her lips when she realized his chest was completely exposed to the cold winter air. “You’re chest… we should go.”
    “Yeah, I think we’re ready,” he said, lifting his eyes and meeting her gaze. Desire burned brightly in the melted chocolate depths and if they had been alone she would have unzipped her jacket and stepped into his arms, pressing her breasts against his chest as she offered him her body. Leisurely, he buttoned up the coat, leaving his shirt opened beneath.
    A shiver rippled through her body at the thought; there was some seriously explosive chemistry between the Nosuntres brothers and the Jacobs sisters if it made them all act so rashly, one might say foolishly. Jenna was a grown woman, the mother of a precocious almost six year old, and she was standing outside wanting to seduce a man she hadn’t even known a few hours before. There was something seriously wrong with her . M aybe she was finally going insane and this was how it was going to present itself : trying to seduce a gorgeous man on a cold winter ’ s night whose hair was far pettier than hers
    Definitely insane.
    “Mr. Rhys?”
