My Everything (26 page)

God, she was beautiful. Ben leaned down and took a nipple into his mouth. He rolled the hard bead with his tongue, loving the taste, the texture. He could feel the tremors as she came all along his shaft. He plunged deeper, harder, wanting more, wanting it all.

Grace was his first. She was his last. She was his everything.

The End

Dear Readers,

Thank you for buying
My Everything
. I have a confession to make. Ben and Grace arrived one night, unannounced, fully formed. The two presented me with their individual stories. I’ve never before
told
quite so much story. I tend to allow my characters to
show
their own stories, but Ben and Grace were quiet people. Both kept their pain buried deep inside. Neither was particularly open. As I got to know them, I realized I would have to tell their stories because if I left it up to Ben and Grace, they’d never say a word.

I became so fond of the couple that more than anything I wanted to present them with the happy ending they deserved.
