This week, I’m SWOONING over:

Title: White Trash Beautiful
Series: White Trash #1
Author: Teresa Mummert
Published: July 9th 2013
Genre: NA Contemporary Romance
Rating: 4.5/5

Our eyes fell closed, and for what felt like an eternity, we held completely still, not wanting this moment to end. My hands loosened from his neck and slid down to his chest. His breathing became more ragged and his hands slid to my neck and his fingers traced my collarbone, sliding over my shoulder, brushing aside the robe to the fading green and yellow bruises on my arm.
I dug my teeth into my lower lip as I searched his eyes for answers to unasked questions.
"I won't hurt you." he said quietly, and waited for a response
"I trust you, Tucker."
He nodded in understanding as his lips crashed into mine. His fingers frantically searched my skin as my robe fell down my arms, catching at the elbows. I slipped my fingers inside his robe and ran the pads of my fingers over his bare, tattooed chest and down the ridges of his abdomen. His muscles flexed under my fingers as his tongue expertly coaxed mine into a deeper kiss.

I loved this scene because is shows how Cass is able to trust a man for the first time after what her abusive boyfriend had done to her. The way Tucker was so sweet and gentle with her was so beautiful.

So what's making you swoon this week?
