Weston Gallagher is falling hard—for the wrong woman. One night of passion has haunted him for years. Now he’s got a second chance to get the girl of his dreams…but there’s just one problem: She hates him.
Eight years after he stormed out of Wildwood, California, West has returned to his hometown as a firefighter. His friends and family are thrilled he’s back—with the exception of Harper Hill. His sister’s best friend is all grown up and in all the right ways. He knows she’s going to do everything she can to protect her heart and keep him at arm’s length, but West has other ideas. He will win the girl that got away. No matter what it takes…

Excerpt:
“I remember exactly what you felt like in my arms, that
night I kissed you,” he continued. “What you tasted like. The sounds you made.
How you’d clutch me closer every time I tried to pull away.”
She dipped her head forward, her eyes tightly closed as she
remembered too. The way he felt, the sounds he made, the way he tasted. He
shifted closer, his mouth—oh God his mouth— was right at her nape, his hands
resting lightly on her hips. “I’m curious to see if it’s still just as good
between us,” he murmured against her skin, his warm lips making her shiver.
His hands on her body and his mouth moving against her neck
made her want to melt. It was going to be good. So good she would probably
combust at first touch of his mouth on hers.
“Turn around, Harper,” he whispered into her hair, and she
opened her eyes, turning slowly so she could face him. Her knees were so wobbly
she leaned against the front door so she wouldn’t fall to the ground in a
boneless heap. West stepped into her personal space, his big hands braced
against the door on either side of her head, his intense gaze zeroed in on her
lips. “I didn’t plan on this happening tonight.”
“Plan on what happening tonight?” she asked with a slight
frown. Oh God, maybe he didn’t want her after all. Maybe he was trying to let
her down easy? She should’ve just left. It was complete torture, knowing he was
most likely going to say something nice so he wouldn’t hurt her feelings. She
held her breath, waiting for the inevitable blow.
“This.”
His lids lowered as he dipped his head, his
mouth landing on hers and her eyes slid closed once more, relief flooding her
as she automatically reached for him, looping her arms around his neck. He
didn’t touch her, his hands remained on the door, but his mouth did wondrous
things. Soft and seeking, warm and damp, his lips brushed against hers once.
Twice. She parted her lips beneath his the third time but he didn’t take it any
deeper. No, he was slow, methodical, purposeful. Learning her, driving her out
of her mind.

You should leave me a comment. It would probably make me smile and then I will probably comment back. Unless you are a spambot. Then I will probably just ignore you.
