Spend Your Sunday With Will & Gabby (Excerpt)

A Will To Change is now available on Amazon, Barnes & Noble and itunes

If you haven't read it yet.....here's one of my favorite Gabby moments. So Why not spend your Sunday with Will & Gabby? I promise there will never be a dull moment:

“So, Gabby, tell me about this ‘friend’ of yours.”
“Will?” I smiled just thinking about him.
“Is that his name?” She smiled back and I nodded. “Well, I could see your face light up at the mere mention of him. He must be pretty special.”
“He is. He’s a really good friend. In fact, there are days that I feel like he’s my only friend.”
“Is that all that two of you are? Just friends?”
“Oh, yeah. Will and I never -.” I cleared my throat. “And we never will.”
“Well, why not?”
She caught me off guard with that question. How did we go from me facing my nightmares to me sleeping with Will? “I don’t know. It’s just not that way between us.”
“Is he already in a relationship?”
I busted out with laughter at the mere thought of Will in a relationship. “Umm, no! Will doesn’t do relationships.”
She nodded at me. “Well, are you attracted to him sexually?”
What the hell? “Uh, no… I mean, I don’t know.” Did the fact that I would get a little bothered on the nights that Will didn’t come home, surmising who he was with and what he was doing, or that I loved staring at him with no shirt on qualify as being sexually attracted to him?
“Well, Gabby, it’s obvious that you think the world of this guy, so why are you afraid to take the next step? Do you feel like you don’t deserve to be happy?”
“Umm…no. That’s not it at all! Look, Will dates…I mean, has sex with girls that look like swimsuit models and there are no strings attached.” I laughed at myself, realizing what I just said. “No pun intended.” She flashed me a smile over my quick wit. “What he and I have is much deeper than any sexual relationship, and I’m okay with that.”
“Well, you are a young woman with needs, and there is nothing wrong with fulfilling those needs with someone you care about.”
Oh, my god! I could feel my face turning red. She was telling me I needed to get laid?! I knew it was true, it had been four months since I last had sex and it wasn’t very gratifying, but with Will? Just hearing myself thinking such thoughts sounded ludicrous. “Well, even if there are tumbleweeds down there, Will certainly won’t be the one taking care of them.”
