Chapter 16
Jonathan had been looking forward to the “and more” part of their relationship ever since their return to the inn after the house hunting. But as much as he wanted her, he was determined to prove to Connie that their relationship could be one based on fun, friendship, and respect, not just passion. Not that passion wasn’t important, but when that lusty fire burned out, there had to be other embers that kept the relationship alive. Not that he expected the five-alarm fire they ignited to extinguish anytime soon.
As they strolled hand in hand into their suite, he applied gentle pressure and urged her into his arms. “Thank you for helping me with the house search.”
She laid her hands on his chest and stroked his pectorals. “You didn’t like any of the places we saw, but there were a few nice houses.”
He shrugged, and she shifted her hands up to run them across the broad line of his shoulders. “You know how sometimes you walk into a place and you know you were meant to be there?” he said.
At her nod, he continued, “None of them felt like home. We’ll just have to keep looking.”
“You will find one that feels like home,” she echoed, but there was a note of doubt in her voice.
He bent and peered at her directly, trying to discern the reason, and it became clear to him. “You don’t think I will.”
“I think your heart is tied to your family’s beach house. I think you have to let go of that place to find your own home,” she said and cradled his jaw, as if to soothe any sting from her words.
He couldn’t take exception with what she’d said. Turning his face, he kissed her palm, then smoothed back a lock of her hair from her face as he said, “You’re not wrong. So much of my life is there, both good and bad. My mother and father. Owen. You.”
“I hope I’m one of the good things,” she teased.
“You are, so maybe I just need to make new memories with you in another place.”
“Like here? Tonight?” she said sexily from beneath half-lowered lids.
“I’ve been telling myself not to rush you, but you make it so hard,” he said with a shake of his head and a chuckle.
Connie reached between their bodies and ran her hand along the bulge in his jeans. “I can make it even harder if you’d like.”
His body shook, and beneath her caress, his erection blasted to life. “I’d like. A lot.”
She laid her hands on his chest again and urged him back toward the couch. As the backs of his knees hit the edge, he sat. She was immediately on him, undoing the button on his jeans and dragging the zipper down over his growing erection. He sprang free, covered only by the thin cotton of his briefs. She pulled those away as well and fisted her hand around him, watching his face as she stroked him.
“Tell me how you want it, Jon.
