I'll be sharing a few kisses with you this week from some of my books, starting with one from my novella, If I Let You Go!
I tried to push Dominic aside so I
could get to the door, but he refused to budge. I pushed harder, trying to use
my anger to shove him out of the way. His response was to grip the tops of my
arms until I stopped fighting, glaring into his eyes.
His lips crushed down against
mine. No warning. No gentle lean-in. One minute we were apart, the next, I was
locked into a kiss I hadn’t expected. I froze only for a second before giving
in, my body shifting from shaking with rage, to shaking with something
completely different. One of his hands slid from the top of my arm to the back
of my neck, the other slipped around my waist, his fingers burning me through
the thin material of my dress. Unsteady, I clutched at his t-shirt, hoping it
would hold me up enough until I was ready to touch him.
Well this is completely
unethical.
I didn’t care. It was better
than shouting.
I’d never hated and wanted
someone so much in my life.
My fingers twisted the fabric of
his shirt, bunching it up in my hands as his tongue found its way into my
mouth. He reached behind him, his nails scratching against the wooden door
until he found the handle. Swinging it open, we stumbled through and shuffled
along the hall to his bedroom, entwined in a desperation-fuelled kiss.
Whoo. Some intense snogging going on here. Lovely stuff.
ReplyDeleteSuper intense and scenes going from fighting to kissing are great when done right. This was perfect.
ReplyDeleteGreat descriptions her specially with the fist and the shirt.

ReplyDeleteWhat a fun hop! Can't wait to read more!
How fun! Love your kissing scene. :)
ReplyDeleteI like the different take on this- how she was mad and he did what he wanted anyway. LOL

ReplyDeleteHot damn! I'd forgotten how awesome this kiss is, it's perfectly charged with the right levels of passion! Love it! :D
ReplyDeleteKissing scenes are fun to write and fun to read if they flow with the story. Sometimes you're writing and one will just sneak up on you because they fit. I love those surprises.
ReplyDeleteYou made me laugh with, "But wait, we have prizes."

That's the start of a roller coaster relationship!
ReplyDeleteLove the "I never hated and wanted someone ...." That and the unethical line makes you really want to know what this relationship is about.
ReplyDeleteGreat scene! Those two had a few issues but such a sweet tale of love. Off to enjoy a some more smooching!
ReplyDeleteThe love/hate kisses are always intense! Love this one, Kyra!

Hoo mama!
ReplyDeleteVery nice! Nothing like a bit of rage-induced smoochies to start the day hehe.
Passion ignites passion. Very nicely done.
ReplyDeleteNow that's one hot kiss!
ReplyDeleteLove and hate such intertwined emotions, one falls so easily in to the other - great emotional writing.
