But through a treadmill accident of embarrassing proportions, the hottest guy on the island suddenly becomes my hero. I don’t know if I’m his type, but I find myself wondering if a night between the sheets counts as cardio. NICHOLAS: I always seem to be drawn to the sculpted, Adonis types. More than just that, they have to be shallow. That’s how I protect myself—by finding guys who would rather hit the gym than actually get to know me. The real me...not just the physical. Lately, though, I’ve been hoping for more than that. And then I meet Evan. There’s an instant connection. The chemistry is there, but with him, it’s much more than physical.
