Just one more Stark on Saturday before release day!
It’s #StarkOnSaturday again — and that means it’s time for other snippet from the upcoming Claim Me, book two in the Stark Trilogy that began with Release Me.

“It’s so pretty out here,” I say as we follow a flagstone path that twines away from the house.
“It is,” he agrees, but his eyes are on me.
“Watch the path, Mr. Stark,” I say.
“I’d rather watch you.”
I grin as he wraps his arms around me and pulls me into a bone-melting kiss. The fire he set inside me only moments ago has not been fully extinguished, and now those embers burst back into flame. “Here?” I whisper, pressing my sex hard against his thigh, then moaning softly at the sweet torment of the returning pressure. “Outside? On these hard, cold stones?” My words may sound reluctant, but I know that my tone does not. Right then I think I want nothing more than the press of stone against my back and the feel of Damien, hot and hard, inside me.
His voice is low and sultry with just a hint of a tease. “What exactly do you want me to do to you, Ms. Fairchild?” His fingers brush my shoulder, sliding the spaghetti strap down my arm so that it hangs loose. “This?” he asks, as he bends to brush his lips over the swell of my breast.
I gasp, my chest heaving, the chiffon that still clings to my now erect nipple rubbing provocatively.
“Or maybe this?” He traces his fingers up my leg, higher and higher until he grazes the soft skin between my thigh and my sex.
“Maybe,” I whisper.
“It would be sweet, wouldn’t it?” he asks as his hand moves up again, tracing the trimmed line of hair on my pubic bone, then dipping down to tease the same soft spot on my other leg. “Here, under the stars. My hands on you and only the night around us. My tongue on your breast, the cool air grazing your erect nipple. A whisper of cool wind brushing over your hot cunt.”
My legs grow weak, and I close my arms around his neck to keep from melting beneath his words and his touch.
“Is that what you want?”
“Yes,” I say.
His smile is slow, and I draw in a ragged breath as he leans close. His lips graze the corner of my mouth, then my temple. Then my ear. I feel his warm breath, and then the softest whisper of a word. “No.”

You should have a warning splash screen before EACH excerpt. You really should. I can imagine some totally unsuspecting reader going *pfffft* after reading the off-the-charts scorching words coming from Mr. Stark’s sensuously nasty mouth. *oh my* Thankfully, I am NOT one of those readers. I am counting the days. Thank YOU so much.
You’re right! I should! Will start doing that!
