Series: Hearts, #1
Publication date: February
27th 2013
Genre: New Adult
Contemporary
Description:
My life has always been safe. I
like it that way. I grew up in a fake society where plastic hearts
rule. If our hearts are made of plastic, they can never
be broken. My parents have expectations and I do everything I can to
meet them, even if it means giving up on my own dreams.
Now, all I want is to be free to make my
own choices.
Dane Wright is everything I have been
warned to stay away from. We met one night while I was with my
perfect, parent-approved boyfriend and I haven’t stopped thinking
about him. I don’t want to like him. I am doing everything I can to ignore
his pull, but my heart seems to want what it cannot have, what
it has never had.
Can he measure up? He may think I am too
good for him, but maybe he is too good for me.
Life is a series of choices and I have
never been able to make my own. Until one day, when my heart decides
to make a choice for me.
Recommended for mature readers due to sexual content and
language.
About the Author:
Book Excerpt:
"Something about the way he looked at me paired with his
proximity to my body sent heat through me. For the first time ever, I felt
desire to be close to a man, desire to fall and let him catch me. It was a dangerous
game I was playing and one I wasn’t sure I could win.
Dane and I talked while I got ready for class. I still needed
to put my clothes on, but that wasn’t going to happen while he was still in my
room. “I need to get dressed,” I said, as I pulled clothes out of my closet and
placed them on the bed.
“I’ll turn around, no peeking I swear.” His mouth turned up at
one side as he looked at me with mischief in his eyes. While I trusted him, he
was still a guy and they couldn’t be trusted under these circumstances. I
stared at him for a moment, silently pleading before he spoke again. “I’ll step
out in the hall if you do one thing for me first.”
I eyed him suspiciously, “And what’s that?” His eyes lowered,
“Kiss me,”
My stomach fluttered as I stood on my tippy toes to kiss his
cheek, but before I could react he cupped my face in his hands and locked his
lips on mine. His mouth was warm and soft as he massaged my lips with passion
and desire. He worshipped my tongue with his own as his fingers coiled in my hair,
sending a tingle through my body. I’d never done anything crazy like bungee
jumping or skydiving, but I imagined this was what falling must feel like; the
euphoria and bliss mixed with a little bit of danger. Just as I reached behind
his back to bring his body closer to mine he pulled away, looking at me through
dark, hooded eyes. I could feel his warm breath on my face, but my body felt
cold and my knees were weak. I needed the connection back.
I wanted to kiss him again, but he stopped me by placing his
finger on my lips. “You better get dressed,” he whispered, rubbing his thumb
over my lips. He kissed me softly one more time before he left my room without
saying another word.
I stood there motionless for several minutes, rubbing my
fingers over my lips. Every time he kissed me it was better than the last. Was
it possible for every kiss to be the best kiss?"
