Let’s pick up where we left off:
“Look at my hands on you.”
His growl was nearly as exciting as those long fingered hands caressing her skin. The trembling started in her knees and crept up her body. She leaned back into his arms, using his body for support. Against her lower back, his erection pulsed.
She quivered. His name tumbled from her lips as his left hand joined his right on her stomach. Her blood hummed, her body jolted in anticipation. She didn’t realize she’d moved her own hands until denim scraped across her palms. Her fingers dug into his hips, pulled him solidly against her.
“Isabeau.” His mouth skimmed her cheek, her jaw, all while his hands kept moving, caressing. He brushed his thumb along the underside of her nipple once, twice, before his hand closed possessively over her breast. The pulse between her legs became a throbbing ache. “You’re beautiful, Isabeau.”
This time she believed him.
So my final question for you is this: Have you met someone who helped you to see your beauty? If you say yes to this one and no to my first question then run, don’t walk, to that special person and have them remind you why you ARE beautiful.

AFTER MIDNIGHT by Sarah Grimm

Sometimes the moment that changes everything comes After Midnight.
Thirteen years – that's how long Isabeau Montgomery has been living a lie. After an automobile accident took her mother's life, Izzy hid herself away, surviving the only way she knew how. Now she is happy in her carefully reconstructed life. That is until he walks through the door of her bar…
Yes, I’ve met someone, actually a few someones, recently that have helped me see my beauty…inside and out. I have had one somewhat similar encounter like Izzy. I hope to have many more! Love the book!
Unfortunately, it’s been a very long time since I’ve been in a relationship and even though the relationship I am thinking of didn’t end well (at all!), he had a lot to do with changing me from being a 98 percenter to a 2 percenter. He was really the first man I was with who spoke to me like Noah spoke to Isa. In fact, my first reactions were just like hers and it took awhile for me to see what he saw. Ironically enough, once I was able to see myself as a beautiful, strong, indepedent woman, I saw clearly the type of man he really was and dumped his ass, pronto!! Seriously, I will always thank him for showing me important things about myself that no other man had done. I am grateful to him for that..but, if he would magically grow a conscience after 10 years and pay me back the $4,000 he borrowed, THAT would make me even more grateful. LOL. Bitter, who me? Nah! I’m too beautiful, smart, generous TO A FAULT and always see the best in people to be bitter- well, maybe those last two need some adjusting! 🙂

I’m glad he showed your just how strong, beautiful and independent you are, even if it led to the end of the relationship. Stay strong, beautiful, generous and smart. We need more of that in this world! 🙂
Thanks, Linda. So glad you’ve met special people who’ve helped you see your inner and outer beauty! We need more strong, confident women in this world today. 🙂
Thank you, Sarah!
Awesome!! I’m so glad Izzy realizes now how beautiful she truly is!! Yes I am lucky enough to have a man who makes me feel like I am the most beautiful woman in the world and that he has eyes only for me!!
