Page 72 of Two Tickets to Paradise

"I want to get my hands on you, too." She smiled up at him and saw the way that his humor had melted away and the heat that was looking back at her took her breath away. She reached out and slipped her hands under his shirt, trailing her nails along his abs and around to his ribs.

Vince hissed in a breath, and she smile at him.

"It's crazy how much I love you."

A corner of his mouth tipped up. "No, it's not, sweetheart."

She lifted her brows at that. "Why?"

"Because I love you, Cora. Every day I can't believe how much and then the next day comes and I love you even more."

He leaned in and kissed her, and she wrapped her legs around his waist as her hands moved under his shirt to his back.

Vince moved a hand under her and lifted her up so that she fit up against his body.

He had her breathless in moments and when they finally managed to get to sleep, they were wrapped up in each other's arms.

Cora dreamed of wonderful things that night, anticipating the next day and their two tickets to paradise.
