Long
Overdue
By:
Tara Andrews
Jill Malone has been looking for
love for all the wrong reasons. A reality check has her signing up for a
no-strings attached night to simply forget about forever after. The last
thing she expected was to know her blind date.
Blake Anders doesn’t need help
finding a date, but he’s tempted by 1Night Stand’s reputation of arranging
exactly what a person needs. And he needs more. Though doubtful, he agrees to
one night and hopes to discover his perfect match. He didn’t count on
Madame Eve reaching deep into his past to give him a night with the woman he
never forgot.
Fearing another broken heart, Jill
works to keep herself from becoming attached, but Blake goes all in to convince
her that he wants their long-overdue love to be more than a one-night stand…
Excerpt:
“I think
there’s been some sort of mistake,” she managed.
“But,
we’re here. And I don’t think it’s a mistake.”
Of
course, he’d be polite, while wondering what happened to the size zero, with
extra-large breasts, he ordered. “I don’t know.” She shook her head and swore
disappointment flashed across his face. “I’ll be honest; I am not comfortable.”
“And let
me be honest. I’m looking forward to an evening with you.” Ooooh, smooth. Then again, she didn’t expect less, given his
tabloid reputation. Still, her legs felt a little less stable.
She faced
him. What really went on in his head? “You don’t find it strange that you know
me?”
His
killer smile set off butterflies in her belly and a warning bell in her mind.
“No. In fact, it makes sense.”
“Why is
that?”
“Because
I used to wonder about you. A lot.”
Jill
forgot to breathe. Forgot almost everything. Did he say…?
“Didn’t
you ever wonder about me?”
Jill
exhaled. “I’m taking the Fifth.” His smile grew. She shook her head,
recognizing dangerous territory. “I’m still not sure.” Not sure she’d measured
up. Not sure she’d survive with her heart intact.
“Stay for
a drink.”
She
wavered at his low-voiced offer. Dammit, he’d become even more handsome than
she remembered.
