Swoon Thursday (39)

It's that time again! We created a HOT meme, and if you're new to the game, here's how to join in the fun:

From the book you’re currently reading, or one you just finished, tell us what made you SWOON. What got your heart pounding, your skin tingling, and your stomach fluttering.

Shout it out on Twitter with the hashtag #YABound, post it here in the comments, or grab the adorable button above and share it on your blog! We want to know :-)

Without further ado, here's ours:

RACHEL: So this Tuesday I spotlighted Meg Cabot's UNDERWORLD, an ABANDON novel.... I know I happened to Swoon over this one last week, but dude, I'm still swooning over my man John, and there was another moment that just had to be celebrated. So, here is a second swoon-errific moment, brought to you by Pierce and John....and Meg, of course. Enjoy :)

First, the Twitter swoon:

His mouth and tongue so commanding any token resistance I might have considered putting up was quickly forgotten-UNDERWORLD Swoon #YABound

And now, the extended bloggy version:

I never got to finish the question. Instead, his lips came down over mine, his mouth and tongue so commanding that any token resistance I might have considered putting up was quickly forgotten...not only because there didn't seem to be any point, but because I realized the truth:

I wanted him every bit as much as he wanted me.

TARA: Totally swooning over THE WEEPERS by Susanne Winnaker:

Twitter Version:

His lips brushed against mine, his palms warm against my cheeks.

Extended Bloggy Version:

         His lips brushed against mine, his palms warm against my cheeks.  Our kiss tasted of blood and tears. Of rain and dirt. Of pain and relief. And more than anything, it was a promise. An oath to never let anything happen to the other.





Kelly: Swooning over THE SHAPESHIFTER'S SECRET:

Twitter version:

Julia felt a surge of energy and quickly stepped toward Terrence pressing her lips to his.--The Shapeshifter's Secret SWOON #YABound

NEREYDA: Swooning over Jennifer L Armentrout's ONYX:

When his hands inched under my shirt, it was as though he reached deep inside me, warming every cell, filling every dark space within me with the heat from his skin.

Touching him, kissing him, was like having a fever all over again.  I was on fire.  My body burned.  Sparks flew.  Against his mouth, I moaned.

JJ: Swooning over REVIVED:

I say, "I love you." I know he can't hear me, but I put it out into the universe anyway. And for now, that's enough --Revived #YABound

EILEEN: Swooning over OF POSEIDON:


Twitter approved:

He brushes his lips against hers, cutting her off. They're softer than he ever imagined. And it's not enough--OF POSEIDON Swoon #YABound

And the extended bloggy version:

He brushes his lips against hers, cutting her off. They're softer than he ever imagined. And it's not enough. Moving his hand from her jawline to entwine it in her damp locks, he pulls her to him. She tips up on her toes to meet him and as he lifts her from the ground, she folds her arms around his neck. Just as hungry for him as he is for her, she opens her mouth for a deeper kiss, pressing her soft curves into him. And Galen decides there is nothing better than kissing Emma.

TRISH:

"And so she clung to him to push them away, pressed herself against him. She felt the length of his body against hers; she felt his hands. She heard his whispers, let him fill her ears and her skin. She kissed him. When he responded to her kisses, she kissed him more." ~Bitterblue SWOON #YABound

SO NOW IT'S YOUR TURN: In 140 characters . . . or, perhaps a bit more if you need to cheat LOL, SWOON us!
