Air stirred against Zach’s cheek as the woman beneath him drew in a startled gasp. A soft fragrance enveloped him, a scent of delicate flowers mixed with something rich and sensual. The only word that came to mind to describe the perfume was scrumptious, and that was not a word he’d even known was in his vocabulary.
