I wrapped my arms around his waist and hugged him. “See, that’s exactly why I fell in love with you. You say all the right things.”
“Yeah, well, I am an actor after all,” he said and laughed as I playfully smacked his chest.
Then he leaned down and kissed me, and I knew he definitely wasn’t acting.
About the Author
Thanks so much for reading Gravity Happens, my eighth full-length novel. I really hope you enjoyed it as much as I loved writing it and developing the characters that helped bring the story to life. If you are interested in reading my other novels, they are also available in e-book format online.
Books have always had a big part in my life, and I probably spend way more time reading than I should, engrossed in the stories that keep me captivated. I am a total sucker for romantic comedies in all forms, because at the end of the day I just want to laugh and see some really great people fall in love. When those stories are mixed with an awesome soundtrack, it just doesn’t get much better than that.
In addition to books, I have a serious love for the Florida Gators and the Boston Red Sox, I am addicted to fashion, and I never go anywhere without my iPod. Give me a grande non-fat vanilla latte from Starbucks and chips and queso from Tijuana Flats, and I am a happy girl.
