Curves and the Sheriff (BBW Romance - Coldwater Springs 2) (4 page)

Rinsing
off the rose-scented soapy lather, Libby once again found herself
wondering if Jake really would like her plump, curvy figure. It was
one thing to kiss her when she was wearing a flattering outfit. But
would he still desire her when he saw her naked?

Stepping
out of the shower, Libby briskly dried herself. Hanging up the
towel, she realized
she’d forgotten to bring some
clothes into the bathroom. Biting her lip, she looked at the sodden
clothes she’d peeled off a few minutes ago. She
wouldn’t
put them back on.

Her
gaze flashed to the blue satin robe hanging on the back of the
bathroom door. She’d just have to slip it on, then quickly go
into her bedroom and get dressed while Jake was in the kitchen.

Libby
donned the knee-length robe, the satin slithering over her skin. She
quickly tied the belt in front, opened the bathroom door, and came
face to face with Jake.

He
paused in the act of knocking as the door swung open. She heard him
inhale sharply and her hands trembled as she tightened the belt on
her robe.

“
I
can’t find the coffee,” he said hoarsely, his hand
dropping to his side.

“
It’s
- it’s in the cupboard…to the left of the kitchen sink.”
Libby couldn’t tear her gaze from his. Her nipples tightened
under his sensual scrutiny and her breathing quickened.

“
Libby.”
Jake cupped the nape of her neck and lowered his head. His mouth
covered hers hungrily. Her pulse skittered with excitement as he
wrapped his other arm around her waist and pulled her flush against
his body.

She
wound her arms around his neck, kissing him back with just as much
hunger. Had they really only been dating for four weeks? She was
so
ready to take their relationship to the next level.

He
molded her body to his, his palms roaming over the curves of her
derriere. Sparks of arousal raced down her spine at his intimate
touch. His lips grazed her neck, and she turned her head slightly
to grant him better access to her sensitive flesh.

Libby
sighed in surrender, relishing the feel of his hard, muscular body
against her soft, curvy contours. His lips and hands felt so good,
she didn’t want him to stop - ever.

She
pressed herself against him, silently telling him she wanted more.
His hard manhood jutted
against her softness; her pulse
pounded at the proof that he wanted her too.

“
Sweetheart,”
he murmured, taking her lips again. His tongue swept into her mouth
and she gave herself up to the incredible feelings his kiss aroused.

He
walked a couple of steps backward into the hallway, holding her
close.
“Where’s your bedroom?”

Her
mind hazy with desire, Libby took a couple of seconds to fully
understand the question. “Here.” She tugged him into
the room next to the bathroom. A brass double bed occupied the
center of the soft lavender and cream bedroom.

A
dresser stood near the doorway, the top bare.
Jake backed her
up against it, his hands fumbling with the belt of her robe. When he
tugged the robe open, his eyes flared with need and she trembled with
a combination
of self-consciousness and anticipation.

“
You’re
even more beautiful than my fantasies,” he rasped, his voice
scraping her nerve endings raw with desire.

Her
lingering self-consciousness vanished, and she melted at his words.
Jake Morgan was definitely the right man to give her heart to.

He
kissed the tip of her breast and she moaned at the sensation of his
tongue on her hardened nipple. “I want you,” she
breathed, suddenly aware of the damp valley between her thighs.

Jake
turned his attention to her other nipple, laving the dusky pink bud,
until Libby’s knees trembled. She wrapped her arms around his
waist for support, her head dropping back as desire swirled through
her, overtaking her.

His
thumbs teased her diamond-hard nipples, and his lips scorched her
neck. “Please Jake,” she begged, not sure how much
longer she could withstand his
sensual onslaught. She felt as
if she was going to die
if he teased her much longer.

Her
eyes widened as he easily lifted her onto the top of the dresser.
Her lips clung to his as he kissed her with a passionate intensity
that blazed a trail of fire through her lower body. His hands teased
and caressed her, slowly trailing lower until they reached her
thighs. Libby’s breath hitched when his fingers skimmed her
inner thighs, gently parting her moist, wet folds. She clutched his
shoulders as his finger stroked her secret nub, desire and need
spiraling out of control.

“
Please.”
She writhed against his finger, wanting more, needing to climax.
Needing Jake. Now.

His
finger explored her damp depths, tantalizing her with the promise of
ecstasy as he returned again and again to her most sensitive spot.
Her body tightened and she grasped his shoulders as waves of
incredible release shuddered through her.

Sighing
with satisfaction, she opened her eyes to find Jake gazing at her
with rough hunger. “That’s only the beginning.”
He covered her lips with his, showing Libby just how much he wanted
her.

Her
desire built anew and she wrapped her legs around his waist, trying
to draw him closer to her. She squirmed against him, wanting nothing
more than to feel him inside her.

His
brown eyes simmered with the depths of his passion. “I can’t
get enough of you.” He nipped the tender flesh between her
neck and shoulder, then instantly soothed it with his tongue.

Libby
gasped, her lower body thrumming with excitement once more. “Please.
I need you.”

He
kissed her once more, then shook out a condom from his wallet.
Yanking off his pants and briefs, he deftly sheathed himself, turning
his attention back to her.

Her
breath caught at the size of him, anticipation flooding through her.

“
It’s
going to be good, sweetheart,” he vowed, his large hands
cupping her hips
,
sliding her closer to the edge of the
dresser. His fingers explored her moist depths, and then his large,
hard shaft nudged her channel, demanding entry.

Libby
gazed into his eyes as he forged into her, her legs wrapped
around
his waist, her arms stretched out behind her, the mahogany of the
dresser cool against her fingertips.

Jake
surged into her over and over, each thrust harder and longer than the
last. Libby tightened around him as he filled her completely, crying
out as her orgasm suddenly crashed over her
.
He followed her
over the edge, spasming as he buried himself deep inside her.

She
collapsed against him, unable to move, his breath warm against her
neck. He stirred, gathering her in his arms and carrying her to the
bed. Jake gently placed her on top of the floral comforter and
followed her down.

“
You’ve
still got your shirt on,” Libby murmured in wonder, her fingers
stroking the cotton fabric.

His
voice echoed the warmth of his smile. “I guess I was too busy
to take it off.”

She
unfastened
his shirt buttons, parting the material to reveal
his firmly muscled chest with a smattering of dark hair arrowing
down. Libby explored him, enjoying the contrast of his hard muscles
underneath her soft fingertips.

He
groaned. “Much more of that and I mightn’t be able to
control myself.”

“
That’s
what I’m counting on, sheriff.” She smiled
mischievously, before kissing his firmly muscled torso.

He
chuckled. “Minx.” Flipping them over, he pinned her
body with his. Jake’s thumb brushed her cheek. “Libby.”
His tongue traced her lips and she instantly responded. His tongue
glided inside her mouth; her toes curled at the tenderness of his
kiss. Her arms stole around his back, stroking his strong, lean
contours
,
and she wished they could stay like that forever.

Libby
squirmed against him as his hardness pressed against her.

“
Feel
what you do to me,” he murmured, his breath skimming
the
hollow of her neck.

Her
hand trailed down his body, her fingers grazing his hard shaft.
“Whatever you say, sheriff.” She suppressed a giggle.

“
Miss
Sassy,” he mock-growled, letting her caress him for long
seconds before trapping her hand with his and drawing it away from
his body.

“
What
are you going to do about it?” Her eyes sparkled as she looked
into his face.

“
Tell
you how much I love you.” Silence descended as both of them
absorbed the impact of his words.

“
Jake--”

His
face lit up in a slow grin as he gazed down at her. “I love
you, Libby Grant. I was attracted to you the second you stepped out
of your car on the highway, no matter how hard I tried to fight it.”

“
But--”

“
I
know it might be too soon for you and that’s okay. I can
wait.”

“
Can
you?” Her eyes flashed.

“
Your
luscious curves have been driving me crazy.” He kissed her
nipple and she shivered. “But now I have all the time in the
world to explore them.”

“
Do
you?“ Libby tried to hide a smile at the dawning apprehension
on Jake’s face. She pushed against his shoulders,
rolling
him over so she sprawled on top of him. “You seem mighty sure
of yourself, sheriff.”

“
Libby--”

She
touched her finger to his lips. “If you’d let me get a
word in, then you’d know by now that I love you too.”
Her lips brushed
his. “Even if you are a little too
sure of yourself at times.”

“
Libby.”
He exhaled in relief and cupped her face, bringing her mouth
back to his. “It’s a good thing I’ve got you to
keep me on my toes.”

“
You’ve
got that right.” She smiled, tracing his firm, sensual lips
with her finger.

“
Let
me show you just how much I need you.” Kissing her deeply, his
hands roamed over her soft curves. He eased her onto her back, his
rigid manhood pressing against her.

“
I
can’t wait,” Libby murmured, her spine tingling with
anticipation and desire. She must be the luckiest girl in the world,
because moving to Coldwater Springs was one of the best decisions
she’d ever made. And falling in love with Sheriff Jake Morgan?
The smartest and most delicious thing she’d ever done.
