That Boy (That Boy, #1)

by Jillian Dodd

“And you would be a fool. Lori is perfect for you. It’s weird because you are so different from her. You know, you and I really are a lot alike. I mean, we both love to have fun, are wild, larger than life, always ready for the next challenge, the next adventure, the next dare. But, on the downside, Danny, sometimes, I think you and I could float around aimlessly. We’re like kites. We just go wherever the wind blows us even if it’s not the best place to be. Lori is like a great kite flyer. She understands that you need enough string to go on your adventures. She even encourages it and helps you soar.” I smile at him, add some cheese to the top of the omelet, and flip it onto a plate. Setting it in front of him, I add, “She also knows when you need to be brought back to earth. She grounds you, Danny. In a very good way.”
