Theresa's Review
Intent by AD Justice is a heartwarming story about finding your hearts desire and your true path in the face of heartbreak and uncertainty. This story will make you laugh out loud while also bringing a tear to your eye which is why I can guarantee you will thoroughly enjoy it as much as I did!
Layne has a path for her life that she is determined to stick to, and having a baby with her boyfriend of 7 years is on the list. He is her first love and she knows that once they have a child together, he will change he mind about marriage and they will live happily ever after. Boy was she ever wrong. When Layne discovers the unexpected her world is turned upside down and rocked to its core. When it starts affecting her work at the firm, Layne knows she needs to get her act together but her managing partner suggests something completely different, a few months off down south at her vacation home. Layne takes the time and hopes to find herself, not expecting to fall in love with the town and its occupants.
Ace works with his best friend Justin at their equine therapy company. He is content with being alone and raising his daughter River who is the love of his life. That is until he finds Layne on his property near one of the most skiddish horses they currently house. Layne and Ace don't get off on the right foot, but Layne and River are immediate friends.
The more time these two spend together, the more they both open up and tear down the walls that keep them sheltered from a life and love they truly deserve. Until their lives are turned upside down by a sequence of events completely out of their control. Will Layne and Ace be able to work past the obstacles thrown in their way? Can they each completely open up to the other? Or is this just a summer fling that will end when Layne needs to return to her life in New York? You will need to read this awesome story to find out!
LAYNEThe silky smooth feel of his tongue gliding across mine sends shivers down my spine. His intrinsic taste is every bit as intoxicating as that bottle of strawberry wine, except he’s much more addictive. When his calloused fingers glide across my cheek, a need greater than I’ve ever known consumes me and makes me want to beg for him to touch me everywhere. I am safe and secure under the weight of his body, and his lips and tongue move with expert precision and determination. Even when I try to rush him and greedily take more, he won’t allow it. He keeps complete control, drawing out the pleasure, leaving me wanting—no, needing—more. My next breath is dependent upon his kiss, his touch, his taste. What I was intent would never happen again is happening right before me, but I can’t willfully stop this any more than I can willfully stop my heart from beating. He shifts his weight and settles his hips between my legs. The sudden friction against my clit causes an intense moan to escape from my throat. His responding growl only amplifies the fire that is about to combust between us. His hips flex and his erection slides across me. My fingers curl into his shirt, my nails scrape across his skin, and my neck arches in response. Ace’s lips move down to my exposed neck as he kisses, licks, and nips at the erogenous area. “You taste good everywhere,” he murmurs. “Your lips, your tongue, your neck. I can’t help but wonder what you taste like in other places.” His hands find their way under my shirt, and he slowly pushes it up as he slides down. His fingers are sprawled out across my abdomen, heating my core from his mere touch. When the stubble from his faded beard scrapes across my stomach, my hands instinctively jerk to his head and my fingers glide through his light brown hair. He pulls my skin through his teeth, sucking it into his mouth, and then laving the area with his warm tongue. “Mmm, the more I taste you, the better it gets,” he hums against my skin. He lifts his eyes to look at me. Looking for permission? He has it, whatever he wants to do to me. Town gossip be damned. I don’t care what they think of me, how easy they think I am, or how jealous they are that he’s here with me. Not one of them has walked in my shoes, has felt what I’ve felt, or has been hurt in the way that I’ve been hurt—because none of them is me. “Ace,” I beg with one word. A one-syllable, one-word plea.
