Hot for Friday Blog Hop (Dream Reunion Edition)

The theme for this week’s Hot for Friday blog hop is “hot and bothered” and here’s a short scene from book six of the Dream Series, DREAM REUNION.  Sara and Brian have returned to college for her ten-year class reunion, and they’ve brought their two eldest daughters along.  In this scene, They’re standing right outside Sara’s old dorm room…

…I’m squeezing Brian’s hand so tightly, but I can’t ease up on him at all.  I – I feel it all through my body, and my heart is speeding up and I’m getting short of breath.  I want – oh, God!  What I want to do is knock on every door down the hall until I see a halfway responsible-looking girl and pawn Grace and Lizzie off on her for an hour or two.  Then I want to pick the lock on room 208, go inside and make love to Brian right now, right on – I have to make an effort to focus my eyes on the door to read the names of the students who live here now – Aileen or Michelle’s bed.

Brian looks at me – into me – and I know he’s thinking the same thing.  I know something else, too.  If I weren’t still recovering from my c-section, I might – we might – do all that.  But I am, and we can’t.

I have to get control of myself.  I really don’t want to have Grace smirking at me the whole weekend.  That thought helps, and I can feel my heart beginning to slow down a little.

“So this is where I lived,” I say, in something close to an even tone.
