About TEXT ME BABY ONE MORE TIME
I love you, he said.
Forever, he said.
Turns out, he lied.
When he leaves me high and dry after a cross-country move, I push him out of my life as much as I can, which is hard to do when the guy who broke your heart also happens to be the most famous dude in town.
After a disastrous year, he’s aiming to rehab his reputation, and I just so happen to be aiming for a promotion at the paper.
So, we strike a deal, and it’s a win-win all around.
Besides, what’s the harm in a few dates to charity galas anyway?
He’s arrogant, a total jerk. There’s no way I’ll fall for him…again.
I used to love him. Now I hate him…I think.

Excerpt: Cinnamon. He smells like cinnamon. I fucking love cinnamon.
“It’s my gum,” he says, and I realize I’ve
said it out loud.
Shit.
I don’t realize he’s reached out to me
until his fingertips graze softly over my exposed hip, the touch causing me to
jump.
“Does it hurt?”
“Huh?”
“The bruise—does it hurt? I saw you hit
your hip on the corner of your desk when you attacked me.”
I glance down at where his fingers are
resting against my skin, and for the first time, I notice there’s a purple mark
forming.
He’s right, I did hit my hip, but I was so
caught up in the moment that I didn’t care. Then during the hour-long car ride
here, I was so focused on trying not to stare at him in his insanely hot
baseball cap that I stared at my phone the whole time and forgot my hip was
throbbing.
“I forgot about it. I didn’t realize it
was starting to bruise.”
“You’ll have to save this dress for one of
our later events so it can heal.”
I find his gaze again and turn my face
toward his. He’s no longer staring at my hip. His swirling green and brown eyes
are locked onto my own.
“You look beautiful, Denver.”
There’s something in the way he says it,
something that grabs at my heart and tugs on the strings. I don’t know if it’s
the way he uses my full name—something he hardly ever does—or if it’s the fire
in his eyes that’s sending his words straight into my chest.
“I…”
My lips are his sole focus now.
I could recite the phone book for him and
I don’t think he’d ever look away.
Worse? I don’t think I’d want him to.
“How’d you know?”
“What?”
“How’d you know this dress was going to be
the one?”
With reluctance, he draws his eyes up to
mine.
“If you think for a second that while you
spent the last five years hating me, I’ve been blind to your body…” His hand
trails down my hip, dipping way too close to my ass.
God do I hate that I want him to keep
going.
“To these curves…” He moves his touch
upward, his fingertips teasing me at the base of my back. “To your sheer
fucking beauty…”
Light, feathery touches dance up my spine.
Goose bumps break out along my skin, though I don’t think he notices.
I don’t realize he’s inched me closer to
him with each dance of anticipation along my body until I feel his arousal
pressed against my thigh.
His fingers curl around my neck, the touch
hard and soft and everything I never knew I wanted, particularly from him.
“I’m not blind, especially when it comes
to you, Bucky.”
I watch as his mouth descends toward mine,
and I do nothing to stop him.
“Oh, miss! That one is stunning ! The
young man has a good eye. He—”
The saleswoman pops up out of nowhere just
before our mouths make contact.
Thank god.
“Oh my, I am so sorry. I didn’t mean to
interrupt, Mr. Clark. I-I—”
Shep pulls away, unwinding his arm from
around my back, and I miss his warmth more than I’ve ever missed anything in my
entire life.
I take three healthy steps away from him,
smoothing down the front of my unwrinkled dress, and try to get my breathing
back to normal, refusing to look over at him for fear I’ll try to climb my way
back into his arms.
Treacherous body.
