Ruby Tuesday (18 page)
“Fuck. It’s not enough.” He pulled out, spinning her in his arms and lifting her onto the table. “I have to kiss you.”
He pulled her ass to the edge, pushed his cock inside and devoured her lips, swallowing her cries as he drove her to the heights of passion. She reached her climax just seconds before him and only a minute before the stage manager knocked on the door to announce the beginning of the third set.

He pulled her to his chest, stroking her hair gently. His next kiss was soft, almost apologetic. “Teagan, I’m—”
She stopped his words with a finger on his lips. She gave him a mischievous grin.
“You rock stars are all the same,” she teased.
“My rock star days are over,” he said and she was pleased to see that he’d returned to his lighthearted nature.

“I thought all I needed was the stardom. Turns out the love I was looking for, in the music, in the rush of performing—it isn’t there. That’s why I could never find it. Why I was never happy. It’s in you, Ruby. I love you.” She smiled. “I love you, Mitch Adams. Only you. Always.”

About the Author
Some people fall apart on their 30th birthday, others on their 40th. For Mari Carr, 34
was the year that took her down. After she spent the day crying and saying, “I haven’t done anything I thought I would,” her husband finally asked what was left undone.
Her answer was simple—she hadn’t written a book or decorated her house. “So do it,” he said.
Five years later, the house is sparkling with fresh paint and new furniture and her computer is jammed full of stories—novels, novellas, short stories and dead-ends. The lesson: It’s never too late to achieve a goal or two!
High school librarian and English teacher by day and mother of two busy teenagers, Mari Carr finds time for writing by squeezing it into the hours between 3
a.m. and daybreak when her family is asleep and the house is quiet.
With the publication of her first book, her latest goal—publishing before 40—has been achieved with a couple of years to spare. Phew!
