The Indelibles are hosting an INDIE-Kissing blog fest!Share a smoochable scene from your current wip or published work; provide tips on writing kissing or romance scenes; list your favorite books, movies, etc (with kissing, of course); write about kissing - your first kiss, perhaps; or suggest ideas for an affordable romantic date night.
I'm not ready to share any smoochable scenes from the book I'm currently working on (but trust me, they are good!) so here's something from a book that's already out there...

“I have to go anyway,” I tell Nate. I turn and
scribble a spell across his wall. A doorway to the faerie paths
materializes, but before I can step through, Nate grabs my arm. He spins
me around and presses his mouth to mine. I melt against him, my eyes
closing. The world disappears, and it’s just the two of us, my hands
rising to caress his face, his fingers sliding down to the small of my
back, pressing me closer to him. My head spins, sounds disappear, and I
feel weightless.
Nate pulls away from me. “Now you can go,” he says with a wink, pushing me gently backward through the doorway.

I lean into him, snaking my arm over his chest. His lips move down, brushing over my cheek bone. I raise my head, and he fits his mouth to mine. My lips open automatically. I feel his hands moving along my arms, raising goose bumps as they go. He pulls me closer until I’m lying across his chest. I feel the pounding of his heart and the pressure of his hands against my shoulder blades. The kiss becomes more urgent. His fingers knot in my hair, and my hands find their way beneath the hem of his T-shirt. All sound is lost in the dizzying rush of blood through my veins.
