This week my swoon moment is from Four Years Later by Monica Murphy.

"His lips firm, delicious, and precise. He kisses me as if he knows exactly what I like, knows exactly what I want. His tongue slides into my open mouth and dances delicately with mine, sending a flurry of shivers throughout my naked body. I clutch him close, devouring him right back, and I hope he knows how much this moment, this kiss, in a dark hotel room with minimal barriers between us, means to me."

Monica Murphy is one hell of a writer and I have loved everything of hers that I've read. Four Years Later ROCKED and I adore Owen and Chelsea. Come back tomorrow to check out my review as part of the blog tour.

This week my swoon moment is from London Falling by T.A. Foster.

"His palms pressed into mine, taking my hands over my head. I clasped my fingers tightly around his grip. I didn't know sex could be so sweet and hot all at the same time. I had never felt so connected to anyone in my life. Every move he made sent rushes of heat spiraling through my body. I held on tightly, aching with unyielding pleasure at each controlled rock of his hips. This was all I wanted-- to be so close to him that I couldn't feel anything but his heart beating, his breathing, and how much he wanted me."


I adored this book and the sweet, tender moments between London and Beau were beautiful. Check out my review later today as part of the blog tour.

This week my swoon moment is from The Darkest Night by Gena Showalter.

 "Arms still banded around her shoulders, he lathered his hands. He set the soap on its perch and began the slow-- really slow-- process of cleaning her from head to toe. His soapy fingers snaked along the soft curve of her hips, on the sweet roundness of her belly. She gave another of those groans, the sound eager and this time just for him. Her head fell back onto his shoulder in open invitation, an action that said, do with me what you will."


It's been a while since I've read an adult paranormal but this book reminded me why I love the genre so much. This book was full of like 10 swoon-worthy men and they all get their own stories. I can't wait to read the rest!

This week my swoon moment is from Unraveled by Jen Frederick.

"I traced a finger in and then out of the grooves on the sides of his mouth. The gold flecks in his eyes glowed. As if they were beckoning me, I leaned forward and placed my lips softly against the sides of his upturned lips. He didn't move but just allowed me to explore him. Bracing myself with my left arm, I used my free hand to run it over his chest, savoring each hard ridge. The curve of his shoulder flowed into a large muscled arm and lightly furred forearms. In contrast to the indolent ease of the rest of his body, his large hands were gripping the covers. I was gratified by this show of both control and desire. I had no doubt Gray could make my body feel good."

Seriously, this freaking book! I have had the Woodlands on my brain for two days now! I cannot get enough of this series. Stop back by on 1/22/14 to check out my review for the blog tour!

This week my swoon moment is from Drew + Fable Forever by Monica Murphy.

"Cautious but bold. Gentle but strong. That's my Drew. He's so completely attuned to my needs. I forget all of my worries, all of my fears of him seeing me naked. All I can do is feel and revel in his love. The love that flows from his every touch, from his lips and from his tongue. "I love you," he whispers close to my ear, his mouth damp on my flesh."

Oh my gosh you guys, I ADORE Drew and Fable and this novella was the icing on the cake. Seriously, Drew freaking Callahan! If you haven't met him, READ this series!

This week my swoon moment is from Rome by Jay Crownover.


"My body wanted him, it was my head and all things I had told myself I was waiting for that had been my stumbling block up to this point. Looking up at him looking down at me like he had never seen anything he wanted more, I realized all the parts were on the same page right now. I kissed him on the center of his breastbone and worked on pulling him back down where all of that straining and aching flesh did the most good. I liked feeling surrounded by him, engulfed in all his maleness."

Oh my god! I absolutely love the Marked Men series and Rome rocked my world. I absolutely loved this book. Stop back by on January 7 for my review as part of the tour.

This week my swoon moment is from Three Broken Promises by Monica Murphy.

"This is exactly how I imagined it would be between us. Hot. All consuming. Overwhelming. I hear muffled whimpers and realize I'm the one who's making them. An ache has started between my legs while he skims his hands all over me, his mouth fused with mine. I want more. More touching, more kissing, more skin-on-skin contact. We're trying to get close, closer and closer, and I slide my hand down the wide expanse of his back, slipping my fingers beneath his shirt so I can touch bare, smooth skin."

I am a huge fan of One Week Girlfriend and Second Chance Boyfriend so I was excited to read Jen and Colin's story. I really loved this book!

This week my swoon moment is from Mine by Katy Evans.

"The moist lap of his tongue comes back again. Pleasure shudders through me as my lips part, while my famished body screams at him to give me more, give me everything I want and love and need right now, right now, please, right now. He gives it to me, but slowly. He savors me, his hand opening on my nape, his thumb caressing the band of my ponytail... killing me softly...I moan and rub his shoulders as he parts my lips wider and delves in to taste, deeper, wetter. We're moving so slow, it's like a dream."

Holy Crap! This book! Seriously steamy and, gods, I love Remington Tate!

This week my swoon moment is from Origin by Jennifer L Armentrout.


"Staring down at Kat, I fell for her all over again. Lost my heart when she smiled. Found a whole new purpose when she reached between us and touched me. And the moment there was nothing between us, there was no more waiting, any intentions of selflessness vanished. My hands were greedy. I was greedy, and my hands were everywhere, my lips following their path. Our bodies moved together like there had been no time separating us. And as I stared down at her, my gaze traveling over her flushed cheeks and swollen lips, I knew right then that there'd never be a more beautiful, more perfect moment in my life than this."

Oh Daemon, how I love you! This book is so good and I love the sweet and tender moments between Kat and Daemon.

This week my swoon moment is from Last Hit by Jessica Clare & Jen Frederick.


"Her words are like a knife against the bonds that held me. I spin around and grab her in my arms. My mouth is upon hers before she can say another word, draw another breath. I eat at her mouth as if it is the finest delicacy in all the land. My tongue delves deep into the wet cavern of her mouth. I swing her legs up around me and tip her back into the bed. The mattress envelops us. I trail my mouth over her jaw and down the column of her throat where I find her pulse thrumming madly. I bite it, and her hips rise up to press against me."

What a book! It was such an edgy and thrilling romance and I absolutely adored Nikolai!

"He moved lightning fast. He rolled me onto my back and was above me, on me, pressing his leg between mine. His lips found mine like they'd been born to do so. This kiss was different. Hungry. Starving. My hands slid up the hard sides of his stomach and then onto his back. Those sculptured muscles flexed under my hands as the kiss deepened until my senses were spinning."

Oh. My. God. This book was so fantastic! Greatest series ending ever! Come back by tomorrow and check out my review.

This week my swoon moment is from The Thrill of It by Lauren Blakely.


"He groans as I trace his lips with my tongue. His lips part, and he lets me lead the kiss, lets me taste his mouth and his tongue. Then, in seconds, the kiss changes. He spins me around, and now my back is against the brick wall, and he threads his hands into my hair, running his fingers through the thick strands, all while kissing me deeply, his tongue sliding against mine, his breath tasting so good, his lips capturing mine."


This book was AMAZING! Raw, gritty, steamy and intense!

This week my swoon moment is from Ignite by Tessa Teevan.


"I've missed you so much, Jace," she whispers, her hand rubbing the back of my neck. My lips quirk up and I know she can feel my smile against her lips. "Oh yeah?" "Mmmhmm," she moans, deepening our kiss before she slides down my body, showing me just how much she's been craving this. Once she brings me to the brink, I push her onto her back, spending the next hour reciprocating, desperate to portray how much she means to me and how much I can't stand our time apart.


This book definitely got my blood pumping and Jace is incredibly swoon-worthy!

This is my first time doing Swoon Thursday but I have seen it around the blogosphere and I had the perfect swoon-worthy quote from my book this week that I wanted to share.



"I melt into him, swaying against his torso. If the kiss the other night was blazing and wild, this is dangerously sensual. Raphael's lips are cool on mine, slow and bold. His tongue slides into my mouth, exploring, probing, and all the while his hands stroke across my back, bringing me closer to the heat of his solid muscular back." 


I seriously loved this book. It was so sweet, romantic and full of lessons about living your own life and figuring how who you are and what you want. Check out my review tomorrow for the release day of With Every Heartbeat.
