First Kiss ~ Excerpt from ' A Code of Love'
His arms wrapped around her waist and he pulled her on top of him. Being inebriated didn’t have any effect on his strength. Abbie was pressed against his hard body. “They killed me, didn’t they? I’m in heaven and my reward is to kiss you.”
Before she could protest, his lips touched hers. Gently. He sighed. “Pillow soft. Just as they look.” He traced his tongue along the border of her lips. Abbie was mesmerized by his tenderness and leaned closer, wanting to know how it felt to be kissed by the infamous Jack Bonnington. She had no experience with men, but she imagined when Jack Bonnington was awake, his kisses would be quite memorable.
“Open your mouth for me, sweetheart.”
His rough words sparked something in Abbie. She softened against him, wanting more of what he offered.
His tongue searched her mouth tasting and testing then he thrust his tongue in and out. Abbie wiggled against him, wanting something unknown. Her tongue touched his.
His breath quickened and his hands grabbed her bottom, pulling her against him, as he thrust his hardness against her. Then his breath roughened, his hands dropped, and he lay still.
She opened her eyes and looked down. He had passed out in the middle of their embrace. Her first kiss and the notorious man had passed out.

Enter the emotional, suspenseful Regency world of USA Today best-selling author Jacki Delecki’s Code Breakers spy series. Undaunted by danger or scandal, these intrepid lords and ladies discover true love as they risk it all to save England from Napoleon’s treacherous designs.
Duty before desire…honor before truth.
Miss Abigail Lyon wants an education, not a husband. A respectable match would redeem her family’s besmirched reputation from her sister’s scandalous elopement, although surely none of the ton’s eligible bachelors count curiosity as a desirable trait in a wife. Abbie finds herself confronting an offer that may be too good to be true.
Jack Bonnington is a rake turned spy, recruited by the Crown to ferret out a traitor. To provide a cover for his clandestine mission, he must pursue the very brilliant and beautiful Miss Abigail. The ruse takes a dangerous turn when they discover their secret is at risk of being exposed. Is the heightened passion a pretense or a prelude to something more dangerous? Can a man bound by honor to his country and a woman ensnared by duty to her family accomplish an impossible mission that gives them the freedom to love and live as they choose?
