With These Hands — Daryl Banner

The closer we get, the harder we fall.

~ DMITRI ~

I want to put my hands all over her body.
But they're too busy writing my fantasy instead of living it.
I'm so used to spinning love stories in my head that I've lost track of the one in my heart.
Doesn't she see that my strength begins and ends within the four corners of the page?
I may be a writer, but with her, I'm a romantic. I want to pin her against every wall on this campus and devour her â€" lips to lips, skin to skin, hand to hand. I want to feel her heart race against mine and her body quake under my touch.
I'm finished being a loveless prisoner to the page.
Now I want the real thing â€" and I think she's it.

Everyone thinks I'm just a weirdo, the quiet girl, the music nerd. No one sees me for who I really am â€" except him.
He watches me with those dark, sensitive eyes of his, melting me. He knows my pain. Maybe he shares it. He brushes the hair out of my eyes with his soft, skillful hand and it drives me insane.
I think he's the music I've been looking for all along.
You can't make harmony with just one voice. I need another â€" and I want it to be his.

The College Obsession Romance series centers around a group of friends and the relationships they form during their time at a small-town Texas school. They are angsty, steamy new adult novels with HEAs and NO cheating. Although they are obsession-themed romances, there are no stalkers or psychos!
