Absolutely Not in Love (Sweater Weather, #7; Appies, #2)

by Jenny Proctor

But she isn’t really into hockey.” Mom turns and heads across the living room. “Then it’s a good thing you’re more than a hockey player.”

And with Gracie, I’m quickly learning I’ll take anything I can get.

There was a fire in Gracie’s eyes, something that makes me think she really does find me attractive, and I add it to the list of tiny things keeping my hope alive.

I felt whole, as cheesy as that sounds. Whole and alive.

I want to spoil her. If she’ll let me.

I love that he’s always taking care of people, but is he taking care of himself? Does he ever say no?

I’ll follow her anywhere. Whatever it takes. Whatever she wants. I’m hers.

Gracie laughs as she lifts it over her head, holding it up for me to see. The poster reads MR. DARCY? NAH. GIVE ME FELIX JAMISON.
