Excerpt
Harris
“That night in
your bedroom, I think about it all the time.”
I let go of
the bat, and he did, too, our hands clasping together. Every muscle in my body
tensed, and I ignored the birds chirping and kids yelling from the playground.
At that moment, we were all that existed on Earth. The wind picked up, but it
wasn’t enough to cool me down. From my head to the very tip of my toenails, I
sweated in anticipation of the next moments.
“I do, too.” I
thought about it more often than I should have. Some of my best memories with
Dylan were always masked by that one kiss. My most shameful moment was at my
wedding when Dylan and I shared our first kiss as husband and wife, and Harris
entered my mind momentarily.
“I’m sorry
about what happened after. I really am.”
I forgave him
years ago. We were young, and I was hell bent on leaving Sycamore Bay. It
worked out for the better because he would have only held me back. I never
wanted to resent him, and surely I would have. But he had Jody, anyway.
“It’s okay,
Harris. It really is.”
The gap
started closing between us, the only air allowed our breath on one another. He
smelled of strawberry, and I was sure he tasted just as sweet.
“No. It’s not.
That kiss, that kiss brought me to my knees.” He squeezed my hand with his
right and pulled me closer with his left. Our bodies touched, and our hearts
raced against each other. “I have a feeling this one will, too.”
I sucked in a
breath as we connected, my body exploding with energy, every piece of me filled
with warmth, weakness, and joy all at one time. When he slipped his tongue in,
I allowed my arms to wrap around his waist, rubbing between his shoulder blades
and down his back until my hands rested above his backside. I wanted to push
down farther, grab his butt, squeeze tight and pull him even harder against me
so I could feel him. I didn’t, though. I kept kissing him, and he kept kissing
me, and every piece of the puzzle fit together for those moments.
We could have
been in a movie, everything spinning around us, and we stood still, our lips
the only things moving. I wanted to lie down on the field, crawl on top of him,
explore every inch of his body. Maybe later. I savored the moment we were in,
relished in the fact I was kissing Harris Malone, and he was kissing me, and
not in my bedroom. We were in the middle of a baseball field, in plain sight of
anyone to see.
We pulled away
from each other if only to take a breath. He took all of mine away.
“Wow.” He
closed his eyes for a moment and opened them back up.
“Wow.” I
repeated his sentiment.
“That was
worth waiting eight years for.”
“I’d wait for
eight more if it meant you’d kiss me like that again.”
My knees
almost buckled beneath me when he gently placed his hands on either side of my
face. He pulled me closer to him and put his lips to my ear and whispered,
“It’s a good thing you don’t have to.”
Review
"We fit
together. We were notes on a sheet of music meant to blend together."
This book had so many of my favorite things wrapped into one!
Single dad being the best he can be for his daughter....Yep!
A country singer trying to find herself again...Oh yeah!
A second-chance romance that leaves you swooning and wanting more...Yes, Please!!!
This book starts off with a bang, and you're immediately immersed into Dory's world.
She's no longer the huge star she once was, and even more than that, she's not even sure who that person is anymore.
All it takes is a trip down memory lane and a move back to her hometown for her to see that everything she ever needed in life was there all along.
"Dory was
the one who got away.
And I was too dumb to not chase after her ."
I fell so hard for Harris!
Oh my gee.
He's just a great guy who will do anything for his daughter, even if she puts up a fight;)
And the things he feels for Dory are so swoonworthy! Gah!
As you flip the pages, you are constantly trying to force them together because you know it NEEDS to happen.
But the best part about a love story is the journey<3
"We were
fixated on each other, and I could interpret his eyes better than any song
lyrics."
I loved the small town this story was based in. Makes me smile thinking of my own home town.
All the characters are someone you would find in a place where everyone knows everybody.
The busybodies, the jocks, the stuck up girls, and of course, the grandmas!
Gah! I loved Dory's grandma!!!
If you love small town romance with a little drama, a little heat, and whole lot of heart...Grab this book!!
Another wonderful read from Tracy Krimmer!
“Dory,
sweetheart, all
that glitters isn’t gold. Love, laughter, smiles—those are the things that
glitter that are worthy in your life. The money, the cars, the fans, they all
disappear. The ones that count, they stick around.”
