Blindsided by Brooke
Page 18
She reached into her bag and pulled out her phone. “Now I have your number. And mine is in your call history.” She tapped a few more buttons on his phone then handed it back with a stifled laugh.
He took the phone and looked down at the screen a smile curving the edges of his mouth. “Awesome bus girl?”
“I think it has a nice ring.”
She typed into her phone and laughed.
“What’s so funny?” he asked.
“Nothing.”
He made a move for her phone, and she held it above their heads, and though she was tall, she wasn’t taller than him. A blush spread across her cheeks, her lips pursed. . He moved quickly and snatched the phone from her hand. He couldn’t hold back the laugh when he glanced at the screen.
“Cute bus guy?” he asked with a dumb smile forcing its way across his face. “You think I’m cute?”
“You weren’t supposed to see that.”
“I’m happy I did.”
“I really should go.” She backed away from him slowly and waved. He stood there, watching until she got into a black Mustang then texted her.
I think you’re cute, too.

Acknowledgements
My readers, thank you so much for continuing to show up and make it possible for me to do what I love to do. Even as a writer, I lack the words to show you my gratitude. Just know that I am forever grateful to you. Thank you.
Mom, thank you for not only reading every single word that I write and not just once but too many times to count, but for being a constant cheerleader and believing in me. I especially want to thank you for helping me with that one scene where I was completely blocked. It is now one of my favorite scenes and it wouldn’t have existed without your guidance. Love you!
Cassie, you are a freaking Rockstar. Seriously. Even when I miss deadlines and nothing seems possible, you root me on and stand by my side until I some how pull it out of my ass. I say this in every acknowledgement, but I’ll never stop saying it, I wouldn’t be where I am today without you. Thanks for continuing to be my work wife, though I prefer Josh’s view, that we’re something completely beyond that. You’re my person.
Eric, even though you hurt your foot and stayed home a couple days, completely throwing off my schedule, you are my constant. Thank you for asking me, “Shouldn’t you be writing?” every time I got sidetracked or was obviously procrastinating. Thank you for picking up dinner when I forget to cook because I’m lost in the story. Thank you for supporting me, and most of all, thank you for knowing when I was having a bad day that a 2ft tall Christmas flamingo would cheer me right up. I love you.
Amanda, you made me another amazing cover for this book and even helped turn the lightbulb on that got the story going, so a big thank you for that!
Hallmark Christmas movies, thank you for being a constant in the background while I wrote all the words. I can always count on you.
Beta Girls, thank you for always being there for me, cheering me on, and checking in. I’m so grateful to have each and every one of you in my life.
