#Excerpt
He shifts his body until he is towering over me. I crane my neck to meet his glooming eyes. For a beat, he just looks me up and down as if he’s sizing me up. I swallow back my fear of trying to face off with him when I’m so consumed with the fire his presence engulfs my body in.
“Let. Me. Be. Clear. I am walking you home whether you like it or not.”
My jaw falls slack—shocked at the nerve of this man. I point my finger directly into his chest as hard as I can. “Youdon’t get to tell me what to do.”
He stumbles backwards but catches himself, though he doesn’t seem pleased. I begin to pull my hand back, but he grabs my wrist and pushes me up against the wall of the elevator.
His lips are a breath away from mine. My anger mixes with lust. It’s a push and pull that is making my panties uncomfortably wet.
“Don’t push me right now, Jessie. I’m not in the mood. Let me get you home safe and then you can go on your little date with Roman’s friend.”
I knew he was pissed about that. I try to shove him out of the way, but he gets back in my space. “Don’t you dare act like you get a say in who I date. You made it pretty clear where we stand, so you don’t get to have an opinion on the matter.”
“You don’t know what you’re talking about,” he says, which sounds like a warning. “Nothing is clear about where we stand.”
“Oh, I disagree. You’re the one who has this big bad secret that he uses as an excuse because he’s too chicken shit to be a man and take what he claims he…”
Before I can finish, he....
BLURB
I’ve hated Walker Harlow for ten years.
Not because I wanted to—because he made me.
On the night of my graduation, I snuck into his room, heart racing, finally ready to show him the crush I’d kept hidden for years. One touch, one moment, should’ve been everything. Instead, he went off on me, shredding my pride and leaving scars that never fully healed.
He’s my best friend’s older brother. The man I swore I’d never forgive.
And now? He’s the man on the other end of the phone, begging me for help.
Walker didn’t plan on raising a baby alone, but Eli changed everything. And against my better judgment, I answer his call. Because the truth is, no matter how much I tell myself I hate him, my heart never learned how to stop wanting him.
But being near him again is dangerous. His secrets run deep, his walls are higher than ever—and mine are crumbling faster than I can rebuild them.
If I let him in this time, it won’t just be my pride on the line. It’ll be my heart.
