JUST ONE KISS: Sneak Peak!
JUST ONE KISS (Kissed by the Bay series, #3) releases in only three more days!! Here's a sneak peek for you:
Adele leaned against Luke, and put a hand on his arm. He was at least a foot taller than she was. “Come, Luke, I’ll help you find a reasonable snack.”
My gaze stuck on Adele touching him in such a very familiar way, her body snugged right up against his, too. Were they a couple?
Luke stepped away, casually breaking her hold on him. His expression didn’t change but the distance he’d created between them felt wide and deep. “I’m still good from breakfast, actually. I found a quaint diner just off the highway called Over the Moon. Their pancakes are so good I’m thinking of asking the woman who runs the place to marry me.”
I choked on a laugh. “Do you mean Mrs. Hanson? She’s almost eighty!”
His eyes twinkled. “I’m a firm believer in pancake-love knowing no age.”
Adele wrinkled her nose. “You keep eating pancakes and the wardrobe people are going to have to sew you into your clothes. Or they’ll fire you.”
“I’d be willing to die a terrible death in a firestorm if need be, on set of course, if it meant having those pancakes forever.”
Adele threw her hands up and walked off.
“Luke, I need you over here please!” Roger Abbot called then shouted to other actors.
Luke turned to me. “It was. . . Well, I was about to say ‘it was nice to meet you’ but we haven’t officially introduced ourselves. I’m Luke Montgomery,” he said, holding out his hand.
“Charlie Rockwell.” I took his hand, which closed around mine. My legs immediately turned liquid. I smiled, trying to hide his affect on me. “Good luck on your upcoming nuptials, Luke.”
The corner of his mouth curved upward. “Thanks. I’ve always had trouble finding good pancakes.” He gave me a secretive smile that I couldn't define and then he sauntered off.
My belly heated. Had he been flirting with me with his pancake remark? Having gotten married so young, I’d never really been in the dating loop, so it was hard to tell.
I watched him go, wondering if the tabloids had gotten it wrong about Adele and Luke. He certainly didn’t seem the least bit interested in her.
And, maybe I was dreaming, but it almost seemed as if he might be interested in me.
