✨EXCERPT: THE NIGHT BEFORE GRUMPMAS by @authorkendallhale is coming December 5th!
#PreOrderNow
“You okay there, Sis? You went quiet,” Val’s voice cuts through my daydream, oblivious to my mental spiral.
I clear my throat, trying to shake off the very detailed images racing through my mind. “I’m fine. And no, I’m not accepting any of his offers, Val.”
“At least consider it,” she teases. “Just a kiss. It’ll be like . . . an experiment. A very important experiment.”
“No kissing,” I mutter, pacing the tiny kitchen, hoping the movement will cool me off. “No nothing, okay?”
“By the way, you never mentioned he had a sexy voice,” she presses.
“Let it go,” I huff.
“How hot is he?” she continues, and knowing my sister, she’s not letting this one go until I either agree to fuck him or send her proof that we kissed.
I hesitate. “He’s, you know . . . decent-looking. In that infuriating, constantly-annoyed way.”
Val scoffs. “Decent-looking? Please. I bet he’s hot as fuck, and you’re just downplaying it.”
She knows me too well, damn it. So what if he’s good-looking? So what if I want him to eat me alive? That doesn’t mean it should be happening. At all. There are plenty of hot men out there, and you don’t see me begging them to lick me, do you? That’d be . . . weird, right?
To get her off my back, I throw out, “We made a deal, though.”
“Oh?” Her voice perks up instantly. “What kind of deal? A hot, dirty one where you let him fuck you for one night? No kissing. Very Pretty Woman, then.”
I groan, covering my face with my hand. What the hell have I gotten myself into? I never should have told her anything.
