“You can’t push me away.”
Jackson lifted her chin with his fingers so she couldn’t avoid his gaze. Their faces were only a few inches apart.
“What if I am crazy?” Allie’s voice broke. “Crazy like a fox?” The first of the fireworks exploded, showering down a glittering red, white and blue light on the meadow below them. The boom echoed in her chest as another exploded to the “oohs” and “ahhs” of the wedding party. She felt scalding tears burn her throat.
Jackson couldn’t bear to see Allie like this. He pulled her to him and, dropping his mouth to hers, kissed her. She leaned into him, letting him draw her even closer as the kiss deepened. Fireworks lit the night, booming in a blaze of glittering light before going dark again.
Desire ignited his blood. He wanted Allie like he’d never wanted anyone or anything before.
