It Was Always You
Release Date: March 28th
"I'm sorry that I watched you walk away. I wanted to call you, to come to you after you and tell you what a mistake I'd made."
"Why didn't you?"
"I didn't think you would want to hear from me."
He bent down and placed his lips on mine, kissing me hard. "How could you think that? Walking away from you was the hardest thing I've ever done. My God, Tatum, I was in love with you."
Tears escaped my eyes as he kissed me again, his hands running down the length of my body. They settled on my ass, and he pulled me into his body. I wrapped my leg over his hip, so he could pull me closer to him. It didn't take long for me to feel his arousal against me; he was so hard and seemed much bigger than earlier. As his hands ran back up my body, they grazed the side of my breast, causing a soft moan to escape from my throat.
"Make love to me, please," I moaned as he continued to kiss along my collarbone.
He stilled. "I'm not sure that’s a good idea, Tatum." He looked from my eyes to my mouth and back again.
I lifted my head from my pillow and kissed him. "Please, show me what it’s like to be loved."

Excerpt:
While I stood waiting for our drinks, I couldn't help looking over at Tatum. She was so cute in her sunflower sundress. It accentuated all the right places. She was still so attractive, and I couldn't help but wonder what it would feel like to kiss those lips. I watched as she ran her hand through her hair, her soft blonde locks falling back into place. How I longed to run my hands through that hair.
"Sir? Sir, your coffees."
I turned and took the coffees from the girl behind the counter. "Thanks."
I sat down beside Tatum and held her coffee in front of her. Reaching to take it from me, her fingers touched mine, sending a warm feeling straight to my groin. "Hope you like it. It’s one of my favorites—a coconut iced coffee."
I watched her mouth as she took a sip, her hazel eyes closing and opening with delight. I hoped one day I would be the one to make her light up like that.
"That's really good. Thank you. It's been a long while since I had an iced coffee. So fill me in on what’s gone on with you in the past eight years."
"Not much. Just work really. Police work is a pretty lonely life—lots of overtime here. I became a training officer a couple of years after I was hired. After working uniform for a few years, I was transferred to the undercover unit. Of all people, Elliott was actually my first trainee in that unit, and now we are partners."
She looked down at her mug, and I caught a hint of sadness in her eyes. "If it's a lonely life, then I'm glad I didn't join you," she whispered, still looking down. "I take it your wife spends a lot of time alone then?" She looked up at me, and I saw the question dancing in her eyes.
My gaze traveled down her body, noticing the light bruising on both her biceps, and I frowned. Where had she gotten those from? Elliott was right, something definitely was going on, and she wasn't talking. I wanted to ask but thought it best I didn't.
"Actually, I never ended up getting married."
"Well, then your girlfriend must hate being alone all the time."
"No girlfriend either, Tatum," I said, looking away. "After you, I felt it was easier to stay single. Less hurt that way." With that admittance, I avoided her eyes.
I felt her hand on mine and looked up to see her watching me. She rubbed my hand and squeezed. "I'm sorry, Parker. I needed time. It was too much, too fast. Everything was changing. If I can be honest, sometimes I wonder if maybe I should have given us more time. Things might be different now."
I could tell she meant every word. "What about you? Are you seeing anyone?"
