“Okay, maybe not so normal.” As he smiles, his gaze brushes down me, soft and light as a feather, from my face to my feet and back up again, where his blue eyes stare into mine, showing a glimmer of interest in spite of my obvious drunken incoherence.
Because it’s so unexpected, it makes me catch my breath. What am I doing? How can I be smiling and flirting with another man? I’m here because I’ve broken up with Dan, the man with whom I was supposed to spend the rest of my life. He was my Mr. Right, and I fucked it up. Emotion rolls over me with the strength of a tsunami, and I tighten my hand on my glass and knock back the rest of the drink in an attempt to control it.
I don’t care about the medication or the migraine. Maybe if I drink enough I’ll pass out, and then I won’t have to deal with this pain anymore. Because I can’t bear it. I loved Dan with all my heart, and now he’s gone.
What the hell am I going to do?

About the Author
Serenity Woods lives in the sub-tropical Northland of New Zealand with her wonderful husband and gorgeous teenage son. She writes hot and sultry contemporary romances with a happy ever after, and would much rather immerse herself in reading or writing romance than do the dusting and ironing, which is why it’s not a great idea to pop round if you have any allergies.
