From the Inside Flap:
His gaze was directed at her mouth...
Dear God, he was thinking about kissing her. But with any luck, he was also remembering how she'd wounded his masculine pride.
Your powers of seduction are vastly exaggerated, she had told him.
If he ever guessed what a lie that had been, she would be lost. Already, a dazed anticipation threatened to rob her of sanity.
With bone-melting strokes, Brand massaged her shoulders. His husky tone deepening, he murmured, "You're really far too tense, Charlotte. I believe it's time I did something about that."
He brought his hands up to cradle her cheeks. And then he kissed her. A sweet kiss unlike the angry one in the coach. A gentle kiss that melted her resistance like hot wax. His fingertips stroked her face, traced the whorls of her ear, played with the fine hairs at the nape of her neck. Utterly entranced, she was only half-aware of the small, needy sounds coming from her throat.
Any hope she'd had of hiding her longing for him vanished into a blur of sensation and pleasure. A deep, drowning pleasure that went on and on.
