First and Tension

Page 31

by Tara Sivec


  Closing my eyes, that old, familiar feeling hits me—nerves mixed with excitement right before the music starts, when you’re waiting in the tunnel of the stadium, remembering you only have one shot to execute everything perfectly in front of all those people and knowing without a shadow of a doubt that all the hard work and sacrifice was worth it.

  “Led by their new director, Emily Flanagan, everyone, get on your feet for the Virginia Beach Sharks Cheeerleeeeaders!”

  And knowing without a shadow of a doubt that the man you literally fell for, who supports your dreams and cheers you on, is worth it too.

  Because he can’t shine without me… and I don’t want to shine without him.

  The End

  Stay tuned for Birdie and Palmer’s wedding!

  And quite possibly an age-appropriate man for Laura Bennett!

  Acknowledgements

  For my awesome editor and twin, Kayla Robichaux, thank you for always dealing with my last-minute BULLSHIT BECAUSE YOU LOVE MY CAPS LOCKS.

  Thank you to Pamela Carrion and Gina Behrends for once again saving my sanity while I wrote this book and for helping me make it less of a dumpster fire. I love you more than all the words in all my books.

  Thank you to Audra for the panty sniffer. It took a few books, but I finally got him in there. You’re welcome.

  Dear sports puns: Sorry, it’s not you; it’s me. I know I had fun with you in the golf book, and even in the baseball book. But Jesus H Christ you gave me nothing for football. Less than nothing. Your sexual innuendo puns need work.

  Thank you to all my amazing Troublemakers who let me use their names in my books, even if I if I make them get punched in the face, or have a raging case of herpes. #sorrynotsorry
