Swoon Thursday, August 16th





It's Thursday, which means it's time for Swoon Thursday hosted by the girls over at YABound.

Here's how it works: From the book you're currently reading, or one you just finished, tell us what made you SWOON. What got your heart pounding, your skin tingling, and your stomach fluttering.

Shout it out on Twitter with the hashtag #YABound, post it here in the comments, or grab the adorable button above and share it on your blog! Don't forget to stop byYABound to read what got them swooning!

I had been reading a middle grade novel, catching up on a series I'm way behind on. And while I started two new YA books, neither has gotten to a swoon worthy scene, so I went to my bookshelf and chose a scene from Perfect Chemistry by Simone Elkeles.
"Just for tonight, let's see what happens."

"And tomorrow?"

Tomorrow? "I haven't thought that far ahead. I just wanted to make out with you right now. You game?"

"That depends.”

"On what?" I ask.

He leans forward and kisses the sensitive spot right under my ear, then whispers, "If you want to stop at kissing, or go further."

What are you reading? Any swoon worthy scenes you'd like to share?

      I read this series out of order. Not on purpose, I had just gotten an autographed copy of this one and read it first. Lots of great swoon moments in all three books.

    That was definitely swoon worthy. I'm still in the throes of revisions so I haven't had a chance to really read much lately. But this little exchange will certainly be on my mind. :-)

    I loved that book - the dialogue felt so genuine. How can you not fall for the Fuentes brothers?

    Oh that had to be my favorite swoon out of all I've read so far! I have Perfect Chemistry but I haven't read it yet. Really looking forward to it now ;) Thanks for sharing!

    This is such a cute meme. And that was a very swoony scene. I'm off to YABound right now to see what they've got. ;)

    Caliente! I just finished reading 50 Shades so I think I'll spare you the swoon-worthy excerpt from that novel, hee hee.

      I have to read 50 Shades yet. I bet there are tons of steamy scenes to choice from.
