That's right, the More Than Just A Kiss Bloghop is still going strong, and I must say, I've read some excellent entries so far already! If I haven't got to your blog yet, I will get there soon, I promise! If you want to sign up, there's still time - details are here.
Today, I'm sharing another kissy scene from one of my books! Some of you will have seen this one before, but it comes from Blindsided, the second book in the Game On series. This kiss happens between Jesse Shaw, and Isabelle, who Jesse met while on vacation in London. It's their first kiss, and Isabelle's first kiss ever!

“You’re making me nervous,” Jesse said.
“Me?” I laughed. “How?”
“I just … this is a big thing. You have a
million expectations of how this should be, and I don’t want to ruin them.”
Silly me. I hadn’t even considered that Jesse
was under pressure too. But if he was a rubbish kisser, how would I know? It’s
not like I had anything to compare it to.
“Could we try again now, please?” I asked. “I’m
ready.”
His fear helped calm my own, and this time I
reached for him. His waist was firm. Lean, but muscly and I couldn’t help but
wonder how he’d look with his shirt off. I imagined a perfect six pack
underneath his blue t-shirt, and I allowed myself an internal swoon at the
idea.
Calm
down! You haven’t even kissed yet, and you’re already undressing him in your
mind!
“Are you sure?” he asked, looking down at me
with concern in his green eyes.
I nodded, even though my heart was banging so
hard I thought it might leap right out of my chest.
Jesse smiled, and this time when he leaned in,
I didn’t run away. My eyes closed, and as his lips lightly touched mine,
everything else faded away. I couldn’t hear the cars, or feel the cold. I only
felt him, warming me with his kiss.
Awww lovey dovey hehehe.
ReplyDeleteVery sweet scene.
ReplyDeleteSo sweet (and hot)! Lovely. I'm such a big fan of Jesse. :)
ReplyDeleteThis is such a sweet kiss! :)
ReplyDeleteI sadly haven't read Blindsided yet. I have it—I just haven't read it yet.
ReplyDeleteBut this scene was fantastic. Very sweet.
Aww. I love this.
ReplyDeleteIt's so refreshing to read a first kiss scene where the guy is just as nervous as the girl. Kudos to you, Kyra, for changing it up and nailing the emotion :-)
ReplyDeleteI hope my wife undresses me with her mind. Wait, did I say that out loud...?
ReplyDeleteLove this! The characterization comes through strong, and I like that both of them were nervous. That's realistic to me.
ReplyDeleteWhat a sweet kiss!
ReplyDeleteGreat snippet, Kyra! Love how it Displays their nervousness about expectations, then when they kiss at least, it's perfect !
ReplyDeleteYes, you learn by doing:-)
ReplyDeleteI almost forgot!! I really have to have better time management.
ReplyDeleteAww romantic! Loved the build up!
ReplyDeleteThis was sweet. Like Kelly I also enjoyed the build up. Her nervous behavior helped make it feel more real.
ReplyDeleteGoing to echo so many others here. A very sweet kiss.
ReplyDeleteYummy kiss :)
