Excerpt
As Cassandra traced the outline of his full lips with her eyes, her
hands trembled. A thick head of, shaggy, blonde hair held a sheen in the
sunlight. There was a sense of familiarity in his voice, and it brought her
comfort. As he bent down to get his grandmother’s bag, she stole a glimpse at
his tight-fitting jeans. It was difficult to keep a thought in her head.
He placed the bag on the floor, stood and placed his hand on the roof
of the car, giving her a peek at his tattooed bicep. His tight fitted, short
sleeved shirt lifted giving her a clear view of his six-pack. He’s hot, but he’
a real show off. Probably has girls lining up at his doorstep. It wasn’t like
her to gawk at a guy. The array of emotions she was feeling made her
lightheaded. All thoughts of her decorating project took a back seat to her
raging hormones. Her focus was supposed to be on her new home, not a hot, sexy
dude in a great pair of jeans. She took a deep breath in an attempt to get it
together. He inched closer, and she got a whiff of his sensual cologne. Jake
oozed sex appeal. Steadying herself, a silly thought cane to her. Is he about
to kiss me? Wishful thinking on her part, but she’d never admit it.
Jake didn’t have to make a move to pique her interest. The intensity of
his stare, sent shivers down her spine.
“Look, I know this is sudden, but how’d you like to meet me this Friday
at Shark’s, on Willow Drive? We’re heading the bill and I’d love for you to
hear us jam.” He tilted his head and reached out to touch her arm. “Say you’ll
come. Please? No pressure, but my grandmother is waiting.” He gave a boyish
grin.
His sensuous full lips tempted her to imagine a romantic interlude. I
must be losing it. Never in her life had she found a man so tantalizing. She
offered a playful grin, feeling the butterflies in her stomach grow. “I’d love
to hear you play again.” A real date might be better, but a slow start sounded
good for now. She didn’t expect to be so attracted to a man she’d just met. No
formal introduction was needed. The chemistry spoke for itself.
“Can you make it this Friday night? I promise to spend breaks with
you.” He kept his eyes on her, making his invitation hard to resist.
“I think I can make it.”
“You think? Try to be there. I’ll sing a song especially for you.”
She felt the heat on her face. “Okay, I’ll do my best to make it. It’s
nice of you to invite me.”
Her heart pounded in her chest. She couldn’t believe she had made a
date with a man she met briefly, right in front of her house. “Thanks,” she
said.
“I’m stoked you’re coming.” Jake smiled and jumped into his car,
buckled up and waved as he pulled away.
How on earth did that happen?
