Will she be willing to take a risk with her heart? BOOK ONE EXCERPT: “I’m on the rebound,” she said, and it was mostly true, but she wasn’t telling him because she wanted him to know she was vulnerable. She was telling him because she wanted to hide her vulnerability, and have a cushion for the morning, for when he saw her in the light of day. “It wouldn’t be anything except—” “I get it.” He said it a little too quickly, like he expected it. Or like he was willing to say anything right now, if it meant he could have her. She pulled back to look at him. “Okay,” she said, even as her heart leapt into her throat. His eyes were heavy lidded and dark, his cheeks carrying a hint of flush. There was an edge to his voice when he spoke. “So how about it?” “Yeah,” she said after a beat, after a dry swallow, after a brief but thorough pep talk with herself. “Guess I’m due a little…fun.” His smirk was just the right side of filthy.
