“My GPS keeps trying to get me to drive into the river.”
At least that wipes the scowl off his face. “Yeah, GPS systems haven’t kept up with the developments around here real well.” He rubs the back of his neck and the movement sends the muscles in his arm and shoulder flexing. Between his sweaty muscles and my memories, I’m pretty sure my panties have disintegrated, and I’m pretty sure he knows it.
I clear my throat and resort to asphalt-gazing again. How hard is it to put on a shirt? “If you can point me in the right direction, I’ll get out of your hair. I’m sure I’m the last person you wanted to see today.”
His grunt has me looking up at him again. Those blue eyes, those crazy blond curls. That mouth. “Cally…”
I sink my teeth into my bottom lip as our gazes tangle. He takes a step toward me, and he’s so close, I have to lift my chin to keep my eyes on his, have to curl my fingers into my fists to keep from touching him—sweaty and solid and so damn gorgeous.
I wait—for him to tell me how horrible I am for what I did to him, for him to ask me why I did what I did. I don’t know what I’d say. In the shadow of my mother’s death, it’s hard to imagine that, once, leaving New Hope—leaving Will—seemed like the worst thing that could happen to me. I was so wrong.
But he doesn’t ask and he doesn’t move away from me. His gaze dips to my lips for the briefest moment, and the way my body responds to his nearness, even all these years later, even after…everything…it only confirms what I suspected.
After seven years. After the lamest breakup in the history of breakups. After breaking his heart and dismissing my own, I’m still very much his.
Coming in October 2013!
