It's Not About Her by Michelle Sutton (excerpt used with permission)

The idea of her purity held his attention, because that same innocence had captivated him once before, when he'd loved Annie. "So you've never kissed a guy?"
"No." Her eyes met his, glistening with emotion. Was that shame? Why? She had nothing to be ashamed of.
"Wow." Tony stared at her for several seconds. "I thought you and Chase…"
Choking on her tears, Deena cried, "I'm sorry we teased you."
Loosening his grip on her wrists, he paused. Then it suddenly occurred to him. She was embarrassed by her lack of experience.
Chase, being a nice guy, probably befriended her to boost her confidence, not because he was attracted to Deena.
His heart thumped as a soul-stirring impulse filled his mind and permeated his bones. "I could be your first…if you want."
Her eyes widened and she gasped, "My…first?"
His heart now slamming against his ribs, he smiled. "Yeah, I'd like that."
"Okay." Her cheeks reddened.
He could feel her small frame trembling underneath his weight. He hoped she wasn't afraid of him. He would never hurt her, or any girl for that matter.
Before he could talk himself out of it, he lowered his face until their lips met. The softness of her welcoming mouth surprised him as his lips clung to hers, drinking her in. He couldn't seem to pull away, and savored the taste of her a moment longer than he'd anticipated.
He hovered above her for several seconds, staring into her gorgeous eyes. She tasted pure and innocent, reminding him of Annie, only Deena's hungry mouth moving beneath his felt even more sensual and appealing.
As he observed the emotion displayed in her eyes, an unexpected earthquake of pleasure shook Tony to the core. Stunned by the intense emotion her kiss had brought to his soul, he sat up and released her hands. Never before had a simple kiss rocked his world to its very foundation.
To his surprise, he actually wanted to kiss her again. The thought startled him as his gaze lingered on her lips. His heart pounded until he could hear his pulse in his heartbeat.

Nice. That's an interesting contradiction with the "pure and innocent" and then the "sensual and appealing".
Michelle does interesting things with the English language.
Glad you liked it. If you read the two prior books you would see that to Tony every female is sensual and appealing, but that's part of the fun...seeing him stunned by his attraction to a girl he wasn't attracted to - but that changed - once their lips met. It transformed the way he saw her and he went from seeing her purity to seeing her sensuality.
