Her kiss was like a damn drug, making his mind go blank of all things except how good she made him feel. It was like feeling the sun on his face after a century of gray skies and endless rain. Her breath was warm against his face and he sighed, wishing he could kiss her for hours. He wrapped his arms around her waist, absorbing the emotions he swore he could almost taste as she met him kiss for kiss. There were promises of trust, passion, desire, longing, and sorrow. Caroline could fit a universe of feelings in just one kiss. She was the kind of woman a man dreamed about, the kind Lincoln had never believed he would find.
