He stared at me. “I don’t want you to give up on your dreams. Not ever.”

Placing my hand on the side of his face, I softly replied, “Nolan, I followed my dreams for eight years. It’s time to start new ones.”

“What are you saying?”

“I’m saying that all I really want to do right now is spend time with you. I want to get back to the barn, get involved with horses again, and help you settle in with the ranch now that I know we’re not going back to California. I want to just…be me. Be us. I haven’t been able to do that in so long, because I was stuck in a world I wasn’t even sure I was happy in. Does that make sense?”

He nodded. “You don’t want to work in art anymore?”

I shrugged and answered him honestly. “I don’t know. Ask me in a couple of months. Right now, the only thing I want to focus on is us.”

A smile slowly spread across his handsome face. “Then I think we should start doing that right away.”

I dug my teeth into my lower lip to keep from moaning as Nolan slid his hand up my thigh and then stopped when he realized I hadn’t put on any panties.

“Are you…are you naked under my t-shirt?”

I attempted to give him my sexiest smile. “I am.”

He groaned and pulled me against him. He lifted my leg up, then grabbed my ass. “Breakfast or sex?”

I raised my eyes as if I was actually considering his question. “I think I’ll go with…sex.”

Nolan flashed me a smile that made my stomach clench with anticipation. He moved quickly through the kitchen and to the living room where he gently laid me on the sofa. His eyes moved over me slowly, taking in every inch of my body as he settled over me. Burying his face into my neck, he kissed along my skin until the warmth of his breath hit my ear and caused me to shiver. “I’ve missed you.”

I moaned, wrapped my legs around him, and lifted my hips. I needed to feel him press into me. To ease the ache between my legs. “I’ve missed you too.”

“I want to bury myself deep inside you, Linz, and stay there the rest of my life.”

My back arched as I dug my heels into him. “Yes. Now. Nolan, please.”

He chuckled and moved his hand slowly up my leg until he found the place where I needed his touch. Nolan pulled back and met my gaze. I felt my tongue swipe across my lips as our eyes locked. The heat between the two of us was undeniable. It was no wonder my heart wouldn’t let me move on. It had always belonged to this one man. As did my body and my soul. I was his, and he was mine. “Do you need to come, baby?”

“Please,” I whimpered, lifting my hips once more to gain some kind of friction.

Nolan moved quickly, and I gasped when I felt his hot breath.

“Oh God,” I moaned when he took my clit into his mouth and gently sucked.

“You are mine,” he whispered as he licked and sucked.

“Yes!” I cried out, burying my fingers into his hair. “More. Please.”

He chuckled and gave me exactly what I begged for.

It didn’t take me long before I cried out his name as one of the most intense orgasms of my life hit me. I floated on a cloud of bliss, slowly returning to the now. Nolan had stripped off his clothes, lifted me, and pulled the t-shirt over my head. He slowly pushed inside me.

“Linz.” His voice sounded strained as he pushed all the way in and then covered my mouth with his. Slowly, he made love to me. Every beautiful memory of us together was finally back.

The muscles in Nolan’s back began to shake, and I knew he was close to release. I moved more urgently, giving more of myself over to him.

Pulling my mouth from his, I gasped when he lifted my hips and found that sweet spot that sent me over the edge once more. Nolan said my name as he pushed in deeper and groaned, both of us falling.

I wrapped my arms tightly around him, holding on with an almost death grip. As if I was afraid he’d slip away again. “I love you, Nolan. So very much.”

He lifted his head and looked deep into my eyes as he smiled. “I love you more.”LinnziI STOOD ON the balcony, drew in a deep breath of salty ocean air, and smiled. The light breeze made me shiver, and I wrapped my arms around myself and rubbed them to get a bit of heat flowing through me.

“Are you cold, sweetheart?”

Nolan.

His whispered words against my ear nearly sent me into a tailspin.

Slowly I turned to see him standing in front of me, dressed only in a towel. My eyes took in his fit physique with greed as I felt my entire body heat at the sight of him. “Not anymore.”
