All I Know (Paradise Beach #1)

by Tamara Lush

All night I've been staring at her. Every time I force myself to look away, I'm drawn in by another detail. The soft waves of her light brown hair. Her giant blue eyes. That pouty mouth of hers. It always seems turned up into a soft smile. That tiny, curvy body. I want to crush her against me. Could I do it without breaking her? Probably not. She's so petite. The whole package makes me nearly blind with desire. No one's ever given me an electric, kinetic jolt like Kate. Back in high school she was my dream girl. A dream I never wanted to wake up from. And now she's my dream woman. I don't need months or years to figure that out—the past couple of hours have told me everything I need to know. She's still the sweet, hilarious, caring person I've always adored. And yet, something in her has changed. Maybe she's matured, or maybe it's the gravity of caring for a sick parent. Every time I look at her, I feel pure, high voltage electricity running through my veins and want to protect her from whatever's troubling her. Can I possibly keep my hands to myself while we walk on the beach? Jesus Christ. Every muscle in my body tenses.
