My lips connect with hers in a searing kiss before I hold her gaze in the moonlight one last time. “Anytime. Thank you for catching me, and I will never let you fall.”
I hold Trixie like that for the next solid hour as we leash our mouths, our bodies together. Trixie Toberman walked into my life right on time all those months ago. Whisking me away to this very place, claiming me in ways that no one before her had been able to do.
Trixie tamed me, she trained me, she downright rearranged my heart. What Trixie doesn’t know is that I almost didn’t make it to Beta house that first night. Miranda Smirnoff stopped me at the door and made a proposition she didn’t think I could refuse. At the time, I didn’t think I could either, but something deep inside of me said run. So, I did. Right past her into these hallowed halls and into the arms of the most beautiful girl I had ever seen.
I’d like to think that Trixie and I still would have happened if I screwed up that night, but I’m glad I didn’t have to find out the hard way. I didn’t want Miranda. After Knox introduced me to his sister last summer, long before she ever moved onto campus, Beatrix Toberman was the only girl I could see. I’ll tell her that on the flight to Memphis when I surprise her with her favorite coffee, with Clyde seated firmly between us—hell, beside us. I’m not letting anyone real or imagined get between Trixie and me ever again.
To all the naysayers, I say don’t be cruel.
I plan on loving Trixie tender, long into the future.

Acknowledgments
Thank YOU so much for reading RED HOT KISSES! I hope you enjoyed the trip back to Hollow Brook as much as I did! Trixie was very special to me because so many people deal with social anxiety. And, although the book just touches on the surface of such a complex issue, I want those who suffer from all forms of anxiety to know that you are not alone!
A special shout-out to Addison’s Angels, my street team, who rock like mad. I love you girls so much. Thank you for helping me in a big way! And a special thank you to my peeps over at the Reader Corner, too! You guys are truly made of awesome. Hugs for going along with all my dreams and schemes.
Thank you to Lisa Markson who is so very sweet and never afraid to tell it like it is. I appreciate that most about you! Keep being awesome! And thank you to Tabby Coots for taking the time out of your busy life to pour over the multitude of words I’ve shoved your way over the years. And you never complain! You’re like a miracle! You ladies both rock my world!
A special thanks to the eagle-eyed Kaila Eileen Turingan-Ramos! You’re a beast when it comes to scouring over pages and pages of text in ample time. Honestly, you must never sleep! You are way more wonderful to me than I ever deserve! Thank you for that! XOXO
Kathryn Jacoby, my thanks to you comes from the depths of my soul. You’ve gone through it all this year and yet tirelessly went through the books. You are an unstoppable force of nature. I pray God’s continued healing over you each and every day.
A HUGE *SHOUTY* rooftop thank you to the most wonderful editor of them all, the sweet and brilliant, Paige Maroney Smith. There is none like you! I pray you never leave me! Ready for another book?
And last, but never least, thank you to Him who sits on the throne, Jesus. Worthy is the Lamb! Glory and honor and power are yours. I owe you everything.
