“Oh God.” She crosses her arms quickly, a peachy, scarlet flush flowing into her cooled porcelain cheeks.
“Sorry.” I stare at anything but the girl and eat up hardwood as I find my seat. “Please. Sit while we wait for Patrice to come back.”
Harper drags her jacket from the arm of the couch over her chest as she sits, clutching it like a teddy bear.
She’s young, this girl, and I may be a brute for picturing her curves and the parts of her body that bloom rose-like and sweet. Yet, I was a poet before I ever became a lyricist, and I can’t help but appreciate a woman, even one that damns herself into a grave within five seconds of meeting her.
I’m almost thirty. I can’t be eyeing a girl barely over the legal drinking age who could be my kid’s nanny.
Except that I am.
OMG! Preorder now!

About the Author
Ketley Allison has always been a romantic at heart. That passion ignited when she realized she could put her dreams into words and her heart into characters. Ketley was born in Canada, moved to Australia, then to California, and finally to New York City to attend law school, but most of that time was spent in coffee shops thinking about her next book.
* * *
Her other passions include wine, coffee, Big Macs, her cat, and her husband, possibly in that order.
