ABOUT THE BOOK
Hadley
Jacobs is over Machlan Gibson.
Sure,
she’ll always be a little weak to the dimple in his right cheek and the way his
five o’clock shadow makes him ruggedly handsome. But that’s not enough to cover
every other thing about him because they all drive her nuts. Like how he’s
won’t admit he’s wrong even when he knows it and how he drives his stupid car a
million miles an hour on wet asphalt. As she rolls back into town and takes a
seat at Crave, she won’t take the bait. She’s over him. Mostly.
Machlan
isn’t over her.
It’s
not because he hasn’t tried. He reminds himself over and over that she’s not
the girl for him. After all, she drives him insane with her sassy attitude and
the way she calls him out on everything. She beats him at poker, even though
she doesn’t know the difference between a straight and a flush, and when she
looks at him with her bright, blue eyes, it’s unnerving. When she climbs onto
that bar stool and orders a drink, he puts it in front of her and ignores the
sparkle in her eyes. He’s not over her,
but she won’t know that.
But
she does know that. And he knows she’s not as over him as she’s pretending to
be. When life forces their hand this time, there’s more on the line than a pile
of poker chips. It’s their forever.

EXCERPT
“What the fuck was that?”
My words are ringing through the air as the
door slams shut behind Spencer. There’s a bite to my tone, a jagged edge to
each syllable that’s delivered with precision. I wait for Hadley to react. All
I get is a slight roll of her eyes.
“What’s what?” she asks.
My head spins, the events of the last few
minutes tumbling through my mind and clamoring against each other. I can’t make
sense of any of it.
“You don’t trust me,” I say. “So what was
that all about? Why did you lie for me?”
“I didn’t say I trusted you.”
“You just told Spencer he could.”
She jumps off the stool and places her hands
on her narrow hips. “That’s Spencer.”
She’s inches away, close enough for me to
actually hear every breath she takes. Each soft intake of air feels like an
invisible arm pulling me toward her.
Everything inside me is screaming—from the
elation, and relief, of getting the building. From the irritation of Hadley
intervening. From the proximity of her body to mine and from the smug look
she’s flipping my way.
“Did you want this or not, Mach?”
“Clarify this.”
“Fuck you.”
I grin. “Is that an offer?”
Her arms cross over her chest, but the
posture is muted by the way her lips part. “Clearly not.” She flushes. “But
thanks for going there.”
“It was your
mind that went straight to the gutter.”
She drops her arms at the same time she pulls
her lip between her teeth. She’s definitely not doing it for my benefit because
she has no way to know how hard it is for me not to reach forward and run my
thumb along her jaw and free it. There’s no way she knows this is the exact
look, complete with the lust in her eyes I’m scared of never seeing again, that
I replay as I lie in bed alone and get off to memories of being entangled in my
sheets with her.
“You could’ve just said thank you,” she points
out.
“I could’ve.”
“You should’ve.”
“I would’ve if you hadn’t sidetracked me.”
She tilts her head to the side. “Whatever.
You’ve never thanked me for anything in your life.”
