making comments about the series and what the characters considered the truth. Nicole didn’t know when she ended up leaning against his hard chest. His arm was around her, drawing lazy patterns on her arm. It was nice—well, it went past nice. Nicole knew she was ready, she wasn’t going to think about the past right then, she’d deal with it when she had to. Right now Jules was safe and asleep, while she felt secure and aroused being so close to Max. On impulse she turned quickly and pressed her lips against his. He made a sound of surprise and then gave a low moan as she kissed him. Max took over the kiss and devoured her lips, penetrating her mouth with his tongue and driving her wild.
He pulled away and his breathing was harsh. “Okay, let’s take a breath here.”
“I don’t want to,” Nicole said and tried to kiss him again.
Max held her away from his body. “Don’t do that, I can’t think straight when you’re so close. I’m trying to be a gentleman, take it slow and some other stuff I can’t remember right now. Basically I don’t want you to feel like you have to do this. If you’re not ready I can wait.”
“I’ve been given the go-ahead by my doctor to resume normal activities and birth control is on board.” Nicole frowned “I’m ready now, Max, unless I’m reading the signs wrong? I’m not good at this. I thought you wanted me to make the first move.”
“I want you, honey, you’re not doing anything wrong.” Max looked at her. “Are you sure?”
Nicole nodded. “Very sure.”
“We’re going to get Jules settled in the bedroom and put on the monitors so we can hear him. Then I will make love to you in my bed until we both fall apart,” Max said gruffly.
“Okay,” she said.
Max turned the TV off and took her hand. Together they moved the baby to the spare bedroom and made sure the baby monitors were on. Her stomach clenched with excitement and nervousness as he led her to his bedroom. The lights were dimmed and she looked at the big, wide bed in front of her.
“You can say no and walk out this door, I won’t be upset,” Max said.
Nicole turned and walked into his arms. She linked her hands behind his neck and stood on her tiptoes to press a soft kiss on his lips. “Nothing has felt this right in a long time. Make love to me, Max.”
“Thank God, another cold shower would’ve killed me,” Max said.
Nicole laughed huskily and he chuckled as he lowered his head to hers and their lips met. Nicole slid her fingers into his hair and Max held her tighter. Every part of her tingled as she touched him and their tongues parried and played.
Nicole pulled away and looked at Max and the pure desire that was on his face. “I want to let go and give you all of me. I think I forgot how to live or breathe without being scared.”
“Not with me, never be scared of me or of being with me, because I would cut off my own hands before I raised them to you in anger.” He held up his hands to her. “These are to cherish you and Jules, nothing else.”
Nicole laced her fingers through his. “I know, I’m getting used to that fact.”
With their fingers intertwined, Max kissed her once more. It was a slow, sweet kiss that spoke volumes.
The barrier of their clothes kept her flesh from meeting his. Max made a sound of desire as Nicole pressed her body closer. She wanted to feel more, his arms and body were rock hard and toned from his police training. She wanted to taste his skin and feel the muscles under her fingertips. He broke the kiss just long enough to pull the light blue sweater over her head. He pressed a hard kiss on her lips before he trailed his lips down her neck to the rise of her breasts. Max removed her bra with ease and she gasped as his hot mouth closed over her nipple and he lightly flicked it with his tongue. His other hand played with her breast as he made a sound of surprise. Nicole looked down to see her milk on his fingers.
“Oh God, I’m sorry,
