Excerpts:
Dessert
Excerpt: Never get in between an Italian and his kitchen. Especially if he's
in the middle of cooking dinner for you.
Revelations
Excerpt: Saying good-bye to someone, whether it is a co-worker or a loved
one, is one of the hardest things anyone has to go through.
Love's Return
Excerpt: His eyes found the one picture he had of the two of them together
that was sitting on a nearby table. They were standing arm in arm with beer
bottles in their hands, both of them smiling for the camera.
Blue Eyes
Excerpt: Strong, gentle hands turned him around so that they were facing
each other and Speed was gifted with a small smile that wrung him through
the heart.
Backseat
Excerpt: "Secluded, deserted, completely private. There's not a person for
miles." He paused significantly before continuing. "A perfect place to
fulfill a fantasy."
Always
Excerpt: I paused outside of Speed's hospital room, looking through the
small glass window as I tried not to let my worry overwhelm me.
Anniversary
Excerpt: It was so unlike the man I've come to know and love that I couldn't
stop my worry even if I had wanted to. Something had to be very, very wrong.
Teasing
Excerpt: Speed's breath was hot against his ear. "Don't you want me?"
Standing in the Shadows of Love
Excerpt: It's more than just wanting him. I seriously think I'm falling in
love with him. And I haven't had that feeling in a very long time.
The Tracks of my Tears
Excerpt: It was the red-rimmed eyes that gave Speed away.
Future Plans
Excerpt: He tightened his hold on the younger man. "I can't imagine a future
without you."
With This Ring...
Excerpt: It had grown over the months they spent working close together
until Speed had become all Horatio could think about.
