“Yes.” She rolls her eyes, but her smile stays fixed between her rosy cheeks. “Does that intimidate you? That I’m smarter than you?” Her mouth twitches. “Honestly? A little.” Aspen narrows her gaze at me, assessing. “I won’t apologize.” “I’d never expect you to.” We grin at each other, the air between us buzzing with the joy of good conversation, delicious food, and great wine. I don’t remember the last time I felt this at ease. In fact, I don’t know if I’ve ever—
YOUVE TALKED TO HER TWICE BROTHER.TWICE. What is thiz dialoue??!??!?
I can’t help but wonder if she feels the snapping chemistry between us like I do. Is that the reason she wants to extricate herself from spending more time with me?

Briefly, I wonder if I should feel embarrassed about my breakup confession last night. But any idea of embarrassment quickly fades when I remember the kind look in Alex’s eyes, the insistence in his voice, and his supportive words of encouragement.

Oh. My. God. Can i go a few pages without cringing???
She’s so different from the girls I’m used to.
Shoot me
Making a plan with Alex, on the other hand, is shockingly easy. Like a business transaction . . . but in a fun and sexy way.
