Free Take Me If You Dare by Candace Havens Page A

you think we’ll have to outswim the sharks? I’d rather sit on the sand if that’s the case. That is exactly why I like surfing. At least you have something to climb on to if you see a fin.”
    Jackson couldn’t keep from chuckling again. “I had no idea you surfed. We’ll have to do that while we’re here. I thought maybe we could swim out to that deck a little to the right.” He pointed over his shoulder. “But we can stay right here with our feet on the ocean floor, if it makes you feel better.”
    She glanced down at the water again, right at his erection. As she moved closer, something came over her face. It took him a moment to realize it was lust.
    “What do you want to do, Jackson?” Her voice had turned velvety again, and so suggestive that all of his senses went on alert. He didn’t think it was a possibility, but his cock grew even harder.
    Not bothering to answer, he took her hands in his and brought her slick body against him. She smelled sweet and salty and he had to taste her. Sliding his arms around her waist, he pulled her with him farther into the water, where their bodies were hidden but he could still keep his feet firm on the sandy bottom.
    They stared at each other for a moment. The need he saw there was something he wanted to vanquish.
    Mar leaned into him and captured his lips. That’s all it took. His determination to take things slowly swam away with the fish.
    I want her.
    Trailing kisses down her neck, he moved to her shoulder, and back to her lips, assaulting them. When she responded with equal passion, he brought her even closer.
    She smiled against his lips, and pushed her pelvis into his. “You have a revolver in there, or are you happy to see me?”
    Jackson nipped at her ear. “Guns and water don’t mix, so use your imagination.”
    “Oh, I’d say you have a loaded gun ready to go.” Then she touched him there, and he almost exploded in her hand. Another second and he might.
    Jackson watched her face as she traced the length of him, and he knew she wanted him as much as he did her. But he had to stop her hand before he embarrassed himself.
    Turning Mariska so that her back was to him, he slid his hand beneath one of the triangles and lightly pinched one of her nipples.
    “Mmm.” She moaned and it was one of the sexiest sounds he’d ever heard. Pleasing her was the only thing on his mind. He’d do anything to hear that sound again.
    As he moved his hand over her breast, his other one slid down lower to the triangle of cloth between her legs. The first touch in the folds of softness sent her body pressing into his.
    Her arms snaked up behind her and around his neck so she could balance. She rocked herself against his erection as he found the tiny nub that drove her to move faster and faster against him. Her soft bottom coaxed hiserection into a frenzy. Using his forefinger he rubbed, alternately sliding a finger into her.
    “Jackson,” she whispered, but she didn’t stop moving her softness against his hard cock. He felt the tension build in her. “Mmm,” she said again and he intensified the motion of his fingers. “Oh, my—” A low groan came from deep within her, and then a shuddering release. Her body relaxed and he had a feeling she would have slid into the ocean had she not been holding on to his neck.
    She was languid in his arms, but his body was tense and aching for release. Turning so that she faced him, she pulled him toward her and kissed him hard. Sliding one of her hands down, she began pumping his swollen cock.
    “Mar,” he growled and deepened their kiss.
    “Did you see how fast you made me come? Do the same thing. Come for me, baby,” she whispered against his lips. The friction of her hand, along with the slickness of the seawater, sent Jackson reeling. It wasn’t long before his cock exploded with a force that almost knocked him off his feet and into the depths of the ocean.
    Taking a cleansing breath, he steadied them both and kissed her
