The first time we make love, with the one we have fallen in love with, is a magical, wondrous experience. So, too, for Emma and Michael. But it can also be nerve-wracking as well...
Excerpt from Trinity, A Brethren Novel

“So, can I get you a cup of coffee or something?” Emma finally asked, her voice near breathless from the deafening silence that had grown between them.
“Or something,” Michael replied, as he gathered her up in an embrace that took the rest of her breath away. His eyes hypnotized as he gazed determinedly into hers. And then, he kissed her. Oh so gently at first, nibbling at her bottom lip, masterfully parting her lips so he could enter and taste her. Then he slowly raised the temperature to blistering.
At first, her arms hung limply at her sides. But as the kiss deepened, she found her footing again, and her hands slid seductively up his arms, caressing and gripping Michael’s back and shoulders. She couldn’t seem to get enough of him as she fought with his tucked-in shirt. But then, she won the battle and could feel his smooth skin and his taut muscles clenching with every touch of her hands. She didn’t feel him lift her off the floor, never once breaking their kiss. Surprised, she found herself planted on the countertop.
“Oh God, Emma, do you know what you’ve been doing to me?” he growled. “Driving me crazy, woman. That’s what.” His lips left a feverish trail of burning kisses from her jaw line down her neck. “I need more of you, Emma. So much more.”
Emma took his face into her hands and looked at him with eyes blurred by desire. She threw all caution to the wind. “My bedroom, Michael, take me there, now.” She could barely speak anymore, she could barely think. He lifted her up in his arms, never taking his eyes off hers, and made his way to her bedroom.
He closed the door with his foot, and proceeded to lay her on the bed. Her hair splayed out like black satin on the pillow. Michael stood motionless.
