Having hope was her weakness.
If Sadie Mullins hadnโ€™t started to believe in love again, hadnโ€™t let herself fall for him, she wouldnโ€™t be feeling this way.
Wouldnโ€™t have her heart breaking.
Wouldnโ€™t regret meeting West Montgomery.
The cocky bastard should have left her alone, let her forget about him.
Let her move on with her life.
Of course, he didnโ€™t.
That could have been the end of it.
Of course, it wasnโ€™t.
Damn hope.

Soaked Teaser #8

Excerpt

When the plane began its taxi to the runway, he gripped the armrests tightly, dislodging my elbow in the process.

โ€œSorry,โ€ he gritted out.

โ€œNervous?โ€

โ€œNope.โ€

I raised my eyebrows.

He grimaced. โ€œScared shitless is a better description.โ€

I bit my lip so I wouldnโ€™t smile, but he saw the small motion.

โ€œMost plane crashes occur within two minutes of takeoff. Once weโ€™re in the air, Iโ€™ll be fine. Itโ€™s just those first two minutes.โ€

He braced himself with his feet, his thighs flexing under his gray pants.

โ€œTalk to me. Distract me.โ€ His eyes pleaded with me, belaying the gruff tone to his voice.

โ€œUmmm. Okay.โ€ I paused, my mind blank. โ€œAre you single?โ€

What the fuck? Where had that question come from?

โ€œYes. You?โ€

I clenched my jaw, turned away for a second. โ€œYup. Very.โ€

His eyes narrowed as he observed me. โ€œWhatโ€™d he do?โ€

โ€œWhat?โ€

โ€œWhatโ€™d the idiot do?โ€

โ€œHe was an idiot.โ€ I shrugged.

โ€œClearly.โ€

Shaking my head, I turned the question back on him. โ€œWhat about you? Why are you single?โ€

โ€œI travel a lot for work. It makes it hard.โ€

That word. I couldnโ€™t help my eyes from flicking down to his crotch.

The muscles in his arm relaxed as he laughed at me. โ€œYeah, it can be a problem sometimes. But I handle it.โ€

I coughed. Did he mean what I thought?

The laugh lines around his eyes deepened as he struggled to keep a straight face.

โ€œIs it a problem that comes up a lot?โ€ What the fuck was wrong with me this morning? I blamed my lack of filter on my way-too-early-in-the-morning drink.

He kept his voice serious. โ€œJust morning and night.โ€

I snickered and he relaxed the rest of the way, his knuckles no longer white against the armrest.

โ€œIโ€™ve mastered some coping techniques. I could teach you. You may need them in the future, if you run into any more idiots.โ€

I blinked. Damn, he was bold. I looked down where his hand rested between us, unconsciously checking out his fingers. Long and lean. Surprisingly lean for such a broad guy.

โ€œIโ€™ve had a lot of experienceโ€”โ€

โ€œIโ€™m sure you have,โ€ I interrupted.

โ€œโ€ฆ and itโ€™d be a shame for all that knowledge to just go to waste,โ€ he finished.

Author Bio

SK_ALT LOGO

Iโ€™m a Southern girl who firmly believes mornings should be outlawed. My perfect day would include lounging on a hammock with a good book, carbohydrates, and the people around me randomly breaking into choreographed song and dance routines. It would not include bacon, cleaning, or anything requiring patience.
