Our First Kiss. Judy Lynn Hubbard

Kiss by kiss, she’s breaking down all his defenses…
All Marcy Johnson ever wanted was to share her life with that special someone. And within the city’s pool of eligible men, no one has yet proven himself to be the one for her. The New York stockbroker wonders if she’s destined to remain forever single. Powerhouse D.C. attorney Nathan Carter just might change her mind. But Marcy’s sexy, caring lover is definitely hiding something….
There’s no room in Nathan’s secret life for a complication like love. If Marcy knew that his law career was just a cover, she’d never trust him again. But the vibrant beauty refuses to give up on him—or their hot romance. When his latest Black Ops mission tears him from Marcy’s arms, Nathan must choose between duty…and the woman whose kiss he desires above all others.
“It’s customary to seal that wish with a kiss,” she said, as she immediately pressed her mouth to his.
Once his mouth touched hers and those soft, honeyed folds parted so easily, he couldn’t help diving in. Her lips were quicksand, and he was drowning in them. He pulled her a little closer with the hand that was resting on her waist. He moved his free hand up and entangled it in her luxuriously thick, soft hair as he had longed to do since meeting her. He decided to let himself go a little deeper—for a little while longer.
When he slightly pushed her away, she weakly clung to his lapels, her eyes wide with wonder and longing. While the kiss was far too brief, at the same time it lasted much too long. He rationalized that he couldn’t afford any emotional involvements, especially not now. Marcy Johnson could quickly become that—if he let her, which was something he must not do.
“Wow.” Marcy sighed in breathless awe. “That was…” Her voice faded off as words escaped her.
“Deadly.” Nathan finished for her, his eyes darkening with barely restrained hunger. Somehow, he resisted the urge to feast on her luscious lips again, knowing he would be lost if he did.

Dear Reader,
I am pleased to present the sequel to Our First Dance, Our First Kiss, chronicling Marcy Johnson and Nathan Carter’s love story. These two wouldn’t leave me alone until I wrote their story—especially Marcy; she’s very headstrong and tenacious, a fact the secretive Nathan quickly realizes. I love strong female characters like Marcy and the men who have their hands full trying to handle them. How about you?
I’ve had many requests for Nicole Carter’s story and you know I can’t disappoint you. I completed Our First Kiss, I started outlining Nicole and Alexander’s book, which will take us into the world of high fashion in Paris, France.
I hope you enjoy reading Our First Kiss as much as I enjoyed writing it. Please let me know what you think.
Happy reading!

To my brother, Randy, a man of few words,
but many kind deeds who always gives unselfishly of himself.
You’ve always been the best brother a sister could wish for
and I love you, always.

Prologue
Marcy glanced at her watch for at least the tenth time in the past half hour. Her mother and father glanced at each other and then back to their twenty-eight-year-old daughter, who was determinedly searching the room with her eyes.
“Do you have to be somewhere, dear?” Margaret made reference to her daughter’s obvious preoccupation.
“Definitely.” She secretively smiled.
“Where?” Michael laughed at the tenacious gleam in her eyes.
“I have to go and find Nathan.”
Her watch informed her it was a few minutes before midnight. She intended to be in Nathan’s arms when the clock struck twelve.
“What for?” Margaret eyed her daughter suspiciously. She hadn’t seen her this worked up over a man since...well, since never.
“For the usual midnight occurrence on New Year’s Eve.” Marcy’s eyes twinkled.
“Marcy, you’ve just met him,” Margaret gasped.
“Mom,
