Swoon Thursday (5)- Ashes on the Waves by Mary Lindsey



Ok so you said you’d like me to keep doing Swoon Thursdays and I am here to please! Thanks to the lovely ladies at YA Bound for this awesome meme! I love being able to a share swoon-worthy snippet with you!

So this week I’ve decided to share a swoon-worthy scene from one of the books I read a little while ago but it doesn’t come out until June! This book was awesome and I know you all will be dying to get your hands on it after this passage!


ASHES ON THE WAVES by Mary Lindsey

This book was awesome and from a male’s POV! I know you all will fall for the tragic hero in this story. Liam is just dreamy and Mary is an amazingly brilliant writer. Readers I give you Liam MacGregor J

She ran her fingers up my stomach and slid them between the buttons of my shirt, her fingertips skimming my chest, leaving tingles in their wake. Her simple touch had more effect on my tortured soul than a thousand words. I sighed and relaxed, the terror of prior moments receding like the tide, my breathing once again taking the slow rhythm of the bells sounding in the distance.

And one more little snippet.

As if under a spell, I could only stare in wonder at this beautiful creature. The light from the window reflected off her sleek ebony hair and flitted across her alabaster skin. The only sound was my uneven breath as I fought to control my desire.

“This is the part where you kiss me,” she said.

Without hesitation I obliged.

So what did you think? Does this make you want to add it to you TBR? I’d love to hear what you think!
