Joel (BBW Bear Shifter Wedding Romance) (Grizzly Groomsmen Book 5) Read Online Free PDF

finish her thought, he leaned down and pressed a kiss against her lips. It was soft and gentle, and immediately took her straight back to the moment they'd had outside, in the wind and rain, just before everything had gone down. She remembered how she'd felt then. Ready, hungry, needy.

    "But…?" He prompted her as he pulled back. She took a deep breath, and then spoke.

    "Look, there's a lot of…shit here, there just is," she admitted, gesturing between the two of them as they continued to sway to the music. "Fuck, I don't even know where you live or what you do or…anything. But I just want to have a good time tonight, and we can take things as they come when we get off this island. Deal?"

    He nodded.

    "Deal."

    Lisa smiled, feeling relieved. She wasn't ready to jump into some hardcore relationship with some guy who'd just made it out of a marriage, but Joel was…special. And she wasn't about to call the shots right now just because everything was uncertain. This was always going to be a weekend that she remembered, but she wanted it to be for good reasons instead of the terrible ones she'd already been given.

    "Hey," he murmured, keeping his voice low, his breath tickling her ear and making her shiver. "You want to…check out the kitchen?"

    She looked up at him, eyebrows raised. She had never so much made out in public before, and if he was suggesting was she thought he was suggesting…?

    "No-one will notice," he continued, "I'd just be kicking myself if I didn't take advantage of tonight, you know, having you right here…"

    Lisa felt a twinge between her legs. She couldn't remember the last time she'd been turned on by just hearing someone talk. She looked around again- everyone in the room looked pretty well absorbed in their own little romantic entanglement, too focused to notice a missing groomsman and bridesmaid… Lisa went over the options in her head. She couldn't even believe she was considering this, but as she looked up into his eyes, she knew that she wanted him, and she wanted him now.

    "Do it," she grinned, and he took her hand and quickly, quietly led her out through the door. Glancing over her shoulder, Lisa felt a buzz of excitement, making sure to pull the door tightly closed behind them. No-one had so much as turned around when they'd left, and knowing that they were getting away with it made it even hotter.  

    Lisa's heels tapped on the tiled floor as Joel flicked on a light- for a hotel as pointedly kitsch as this one, it was weird to see a kitchen as generic as this. All crisp metal surfaces, shiny white floors, and strip lighting. Lisa came to a stop, leaning up against one of the counters seductively, and waited for Joel. He made eye contact across the room, and strode towards her, slowing his pace as he approached as if savouring the few moments before their bodies met. Lisa's heart pounded in her chest, and she felt more nervous than she had all day. The wolves had nothing on the look in Joel's eyes right then.  

    Finally, he reached her, and wound an arm around her waist and pulled her in close. Lisa forced herself to look up into his eyes, which were shining with desire, and drew in a sharp inhale as his lips finally met her's. But this time, there was nothing to stop them- this time there was nothing to get in the way. This time, it was just the two of them, and Lisa had no intention of letting it go to waste.  

    Joel's hands were immediately roaming all across Lisa's body, down to her ass, lifting her up on to the counter so she could wrap her legs around his waist. She arched her back towards him so she could press her breasts against his chest- he had a surprising strength despite his skinny frame, muscles underneath his jacket and shirt. Lisa reached up and began to undo his buttons, pulling the fabric aside to expose his chest. Placing a hand on her lower back, he pulled her closer, so close that she could feel his erection pressing against her through his slacks.
