Excerpt
I reminded myself of the bubbly pink thing in my glass and
began pulling my hand toward my face when the cup was jerked from my grasp.

“Delicious,” Sean murmured as he sipped from the rim of my
glass, lifting his eyebrows and grinning hopelessly. Is this real?

“Where did you come from?” I snapped. “What are you doing
here?” The words fell out in accusation, but I was more surprised than
anything. I stopped dancing and stared at him, tanned and gorgeous. His beard
disappeared into delectable stubble. I had to stop myself from wanting to touch
it, to touch him. His wavy hair was cropped, forcing my focus to his glowing
emerald eyes which stared at me.

“Meeting Jesse. What are you doing here?” This creep owes me
an explanation. Or does he?

“Come here.” I pulled on his wrist and walked with Sean
through the gaping wall of windows that was open for the evening, blasted with
heat lamps and fans. Sorry, planet. In the dim glow of the streetlights I
observed Sean was wearing all black; dress pants and shirt, of course teasingly
unbuttoned at the top with his cuffs rolled over his muscular forearms. I
continued sipping from my glass, eyeing him suspiciously. I wasn’t sure what to
say, how to feel, or if he was actually standing there.

“I thought you were still in Miami,” I pressed, taking a sip

“I thought you’d be spending a Saturday night with your

wild.

“You waited almost a week to tell me.” I swung at his arm

you’ve tampered with this one.”

My body warmed with his hand along the middle of my back as
Sean guided me back to the booth. I was only on my second drink and resentful
he thought it was his place to tell me I had enough. I had enough of his
stupid, handsome face, that was for sure. I had enough of him the last time I
saw him, when he left me alone. Shudder. I didn’t have enough then. Seeing him
next to me, feeling his skin on my back, his eyes burning into mine, reminded
me of how much not enough I had of Sean.

Ella and Lizzie were still dancing in the middle of the
floor, leaving our booth empty. I noticed Jesse turn from the bar and gaze in
our direction, his mouth spreading into a playful smile. It was one twisted

Review
Avery has the education, the career, a great group of friends but what she doesn’t have is the one man she has always wanted. Instead they are part of the same group of friends and although they may flirt it goes no further.
Sean is sexy yet sweet, a loyal friend and flirts like a master. When life as he knows it changes he and Avery realize their true feelings for one another as she is the one he leans on and she wants to be by his side for anything and everything he might need.
This is an emotional friends to lovers story. I not only loved the chemistry and connection between Avery and Sean but their whole group of friends as well. I am looking forward to more of these characters and this series.
