I kissed his cheek softly and watched as he looked down with a curious look on his face which made me smile. I kissed the top of his hand then spoke just loud enough so that he could hear my voice. "I think you have the most beautiful and unique mind I have ever come across and will ever experience in my lifetime."

~Excerpt~ I stared at the man in front of me, bright grey eyes, dark hair, and a clearly muscled torso. "What?" I looked at him in shock. He seemed to ignore my outburst and repeated himself. "I was wondering if you'd like to go on a date with me?" He fidgeted as he talked, even though his voice held more confidence than he portrayed.
