“Okay, let me get the sequence of events straight,” she said. “He told you was in love with you-” “He said he was in the process of falling in love with me.” Maggie rolled her eyes. “So he qualified it slightly. Big fucking deal. He still put it out there. You respond by—correct me if [...]

The great thing about Esme is that she always follows through. Four hours later, she kissed my cheek and slid into the booth across from me. Her smile was particularly bright, and her eyes were brimming with excitement. “You already know, don’t you?” She nodded and let out a quiet squeal. “I’m so happy. I [...]

She follows him into the foyer with her arms held stiffly at her sides. “I feel like I’m in a museum. I’m almost afraid to touch anything.” “I assure you, things back then were much more solidly made than they are now. Everything is meant to be touched, to be used. It’s foolish to assume [...]

“If you don’t draw anymore, why do you keep art supplies in your car?” He laughs. “You think I planned this as a means to get you out of your clothing. May I remind you that you were in your current state of undress long before I brought up the subject of posing for me.” [...]

When Bella comes to the door, she’s rubbing her eyes and squinting. For the briefest of moments, he feels bad for waking her, until he sees what she has on—or more specifically, that she doesn’t appear to be wearing anything under her enormous T-shirt.  Because he can plainly see the shadows of her areolas through [...]

There’s something about Cullen that screams ‘big enough to be in porno,’ but then again, any guy would seem well-endowed after that needle [...]

Bella isn’t typically one to fret over fashion, but even she acknowledges her plans for this evening provide a unique challenge when it comes to attire. How is a girl supposed to dress to go out with an alleged womanizer who has already seen her in a get-up worthy of the Moonlite Bunny Ranch? If [...]

There’s something about him that makes her clit twitch, even though he has yet to touch her. Normally, she’d never permit a man to take her picture—clothed or otherwise. Descriptions and detective drawings are subjective, but a photograph is indisputable evidence. But he smiles as he holds up his camera, and he’s gorgeous, so she [...]

She jumped, as if my question startled her. “Why wouldn’t I be okay?” “Tonight hasn’t exactly gone as planned.” “You mean because of Kate?” I nodded. “I’ve already told you, Kate didn’t upset me.” “Your intonation implies that I have.” She folded her arms across her chest. “Why didn’t you tell me she would be [...]
