EXCERPT
“You seem happy,” she said.
“I am,” I answered, running my fingers along the chains of the swings. “I can’t believe I get to be here and be part of this. Thank you.”
She tilted her head. “Thank me? I didn’t do anything. You being here is all you.” Julia moved closer, and I stumbled when I tried to step back.
“You’re so handsome, Carter.” God, she needed to stop. I was hanging on by a thread as it was. “Kiss me.”
I blinked, trying to kick start my brain into formulating a response. What was with this woman? “Julia…”
“I know you’re going to tell me all the reasons you shouldn’t. Or can’t. How about you tell me the one reason you should?”
“And what’s that?”
She stepped so close the scent of her perfume drifted up my nose and the heat of her body made my fingers itch to pull her the rest of the way to me.
“That you want to.”
She knew me. She read my mind. No matter what I told her, my body was screaming something else, and she knew it. “I’m going to do it unless you say no,” she said. She moved closer, the high heels she had on making her much closer to looking me in the eye.
The conversation with Ethan flooded my mind, and I stepped back, forcing a smile on my face. “No, Julia. Come on, let’s go down and sit. I’m sure the dinner is about to start.”
Julia stared into my eyes for so long, I wasn’t sure she heard me or even cared what I said. When she turned and walked away, leaving me to follow her, I knew two things: one, she heard me just fine and two, I was doing nothing but continuing to upset her. I had to find a way for us to move on from this attraction of ours once and for all.
