TJ gritted his teeth and tipped his head back as he fought to hold on, feeling like he was on the verge of dying.But then her arms were drawing him down into her embrace, the soft curves of her body cushioning the hard planes of his as she pulled him into her.

Struggling to breathe, he eased his hips between her spread thighs, the head of his cock lodged against the slick, heated place he couldn’t wait to bury himself in.Bracing his weight on his elbows, he stared down into her face, then entered her with one long thrust.

His breath hissed out, every single inch of contact an exquisite agony.Ecstasy burned up his spine, blazing in the pit of his belly and his groin, so hot he was already on the verge of exploding.

She was perfect.So goddamn soft and warm, melting around him, drawing him deeper, deeper until they were fused completely together.He buried his hands in her hair and gripped tight.Fisting it as the need took over.

He surged in and out of her in an unstoppable rhythm, the searing need for release blinding him.Blocking out everything but the feel of her, her scent, her soft little whimpers he gobbled up with ravenous kisses.He couldn’t slow down.Couldn’t get enough.

He was vaguely aware of her wedging an arm between their bodies.Realized hazily that her hand was between her thighs, fingers stroking her clit, her rising cries of excitement burning him alive.

Balanced right on the knife edge of release, he felt her tense beneath him.Heard her liquid moan of ecstasy as she clenched around him.He plunged deep, buried himself to the hilt in her warmth, and raw pleasure exploded through him.

He pulled his mouth from hers, a guttural shout of ecstasy echoing through the room.The release tore through him in agonizingly delicious pulses that left him gasping, sagging over her on trembling arms.

Bristol relaxed with a sexy, humming sound and drew him down to blanket her.He lay sprawled out on top of her like a dead weight, trying to get his breath back and half afraid he was crushing her, but he was too weak to move.

She’d destroyed him.Fucking ruined him.

Sex had never been like that before.And deep down, he knew it never would be with anyone else ever again.Only her.

This thing between them had gone way beyond physical need.And if he was honest, their connection had been anything but superficial from the start.

She’d seen him when no one else had.She’d gone out of her way to help him so many times, had touched a part of him he hadn’t known existed until her.Tonight, she’d given herself to him completely.Offered herself up to him and been completely vulnerable, trusting him with far more than her delectable body and physical needs.

She was everything that was good about the world.Everything he’d thought he didn’t believe in anymore.God knew he didn’t deserve it.Didn’t deserve her.He didn’t know what the hell he was supposed to do now, but he knew for damned sure that she deserved far better than him.

She cut off his thoughts by stroking a hand down the damp length of his back, the other playing lazily with his hair.His eyelids drooped, exhaustion pulling at him.

“You okay?”she murmured close to his ear.

No.He wasn’t even remotely okay.He was in too deep, the water already over his head and rising fast—and not just because of the threat from the cartel hanging over them.

The only real way to protect Bristol was to walk away from her.But he knew in his bones it was already far too late for that.

She was the one threat he wasn’t going to fight.
