Excerpt
“Let’s put the the mud back out in the yard where it belongs.”
“Not this stuff. It’s too expensive.”
“Expensive?” He takes the jar of Fango beauty mud from me, opens it, sniffs it—and I push it onto his nose. “Ach.”
“Oops,” I say with a grin.
“All right, that’s it.” He takes some mud and tries to smear it on me, but I intercept his hand and make a grab for the jar.
“Let go,” I cry, laughing and struggling for it.
“Not a chance.”
I get some anyway. “Hah!”
“No, don’t come near me with that,” he says, and I paste him. “Ach!”
“Ooh, the big fierce warror’s upset.” He comes in for the kill. “Wait!”
“No.”
“Yes!”
“No. No mercy.” He tries to smear me—and I wind up smearing him instead.
“Hah!” I cry. “No mercy for you! Nice nose.”
His muddy hand touches my stomach.
“Hey, faces only.”
“That’s not in the rule book.”
My eyes close as his hands smear mud across my stomach.
“There,” he says. “Now your innie’s a little mud pit.” His hand trails across my middle. I squirm slightly, and his eyes meet mine. They’re darker now, heavier. “Where next?”
"Fun, steamy, and leaves you hungry for more. Sabrina Elkins nails the vulnerability of becoming an adult and the choices that come with growing up."
