When she relaxes, she smiles at me mischievously. "Want to fool around before I have to go to class?"
"Someone could walk by us at any minute," I point out.
Reaching behind her, she snags an extra blanket I had not seen when I first approached. "That's why I brought this. It's a brisk fall day and we could snuggle under it for warmth while we make out."
"Mmmm, I like the way you think," I say with a rumbling laugh as I grab her around the waist and drag her down so she's lying beside me. Taking the blanket from her, I arrange it over us and then pull her in close. My mouth goes to hers and the spark ignites hot as it always does between us.
As I lay here making out with Simone, considering how much my life has changed in just a short time, I realize that there's not one thing that could make me any happier or more fulfilled.
Well...except for one thing. For her to say yes when I propose to her.
But that's another story for another day.

Since the release of her debut contemporary romance novel, Off Sides, in January 2013, SAWYER BENNETT has released multiple books, many of which have appeared on the New York Times, USA Today, and Wall Street Journal bestseller lists.
A reformed trial lawyer from North Carolina, Sawyer uses real-life experience to create relatable, sexy stories that appeal to a wide array of readers. From new adult to erotic contemporary romance, she writes something for just about everyone.
Sawyer likes her Bloody Marys strong, her martinis dirty, and her heroes a combination of the two. When not bringing fictional romance to life, Sawyer is a chauffeur, stylist, chef, maid, and personal assistant to a very active daughter, as well as a full-time servant to her adorably naughty dogs. She believes in the good of others and that a bad day can be cured with a great workout, cake, or even better, both.
Sawyer also writes general and women's fiction under the pen name S. Bennett and sweet romance under the name Juliette Poe.

Reed
"We are so good together, baby," she pants from underneath me. "The paparazzi got some amazing shots of us tonight, and your silver tie complemented my dress wonderfully."
A bead of sweat trickles down my temple as I start to drive deeper.
Harder.
