A Little Too Wild Excerpt
A swish of black hair caught my eye. I did a double take and the air was sucked out of my lungs.
Raven.
River’s sister had always been pretty. When I’d left here, she’d been a sophomore. Twelve years later, she’d grown into a woman who wasn’t pretty.
She was devastating.
Long, silky hair fell nearly to her waist. A handful of freckles dusted her nose. Her soft lips were painted a sultry red. A sleeveless, black dress hugged her lithe body.
The dress had a swath of leather around her torso, giving it a sexy edge. That and the slit that ran up her thigh. She had mile-long legs accentuated with a pair of strappy heels.
Goddamn. She was stunning.
Then again, she’d always snagged my attention.
There wasn’t much that River didn’t know about me. Mostly because we’d been friends for so long, but also because he’d been my confidant in high school.
But not once had I let it show how much I’d crushed on his sister.
“Raven.” He jerked up his chin, waving her over.
“Oh, there you are.” She smiled at him, then turned to me, flashing me those arctic-blue eyes framed by sooty lashes. “Oh.” Her smile dropped. “Hey, Crew.”
“Hey, Raven.”
“I’m going to go find a seat,” she told River.
“’Kay. I’m sitting with Crew.”
Without another word, she walked away, taking a chair on the bride’s side of the room.
Twelve years and all I got was a Hey, Crew.
Why did that surprise me? Raven had never seemed even slightly interested. The only girl at Penny Ridge High I’d wanted was the only girl who couldn’t have cared less. I was a world champion, an Olympian, and she still stared straight through me.
Maybe some things around here had changed. But not enough.
I needed to get the fuck off Madigan Mountain.
