Excerpt:
His dark eyes narrowed in on my face, then looked me up and down before breaking into a grin.
“Hey, Sunshine.”
The words stuck in my throat momentarily as I looked at his lazy grin. His lips were full, and I realized I was staring when he chuckled softly.
I looked down, embarrassed, then said, “Hey.”
I looked back up and felt as if I was being sucked into his gaze. My heart pounded in my chest, and it suddenly felt hard to breath. He reached his hand out and spun a lock of my hair around his finger. I watched as he wound it round and round, and my palms began to sweat.
“Where ya headed to so fast?” he asked his voice low.
“Class,” I sputtered. My throat was suddenly bone dry.
“You could always ditch,” he said with a grin as he tugged on my hair. “We could go for a drive.”
“Uh… No, I really can’t. I have to bring my grades up,” I replied lamely.
Hawk shook his head and began walking backwards, away from me.
“Your loss, Sunshine. See ya around.”
I collapsed against the wall before my legs gave out, cursing myself for being so stupid.
You should have gone with him. Quit being such a baby.
That was why, when Layla suggested the shopping trip, I agreed right away. I needed to change my image.
