Excerpt

Luke and Tasha’s suggestion ate at me all day. I had plenty of time to think on the journey for a client meeting, then on the way back. At the same time, I’d browsed the local Ealynn Sands estate agent sites for rental properties. There wasn’t much around unless I wanted a one-roomed studio near the marina for an extortionate price or to spend all my salary on a massive property I’d only use about three rooms in, which I wouldn’t be able to afford either. I would have to bite the bullet and call Sara. But how would Ems react to me moving in? We hadn’t been in touch since I went to New York. But needs must. I waited until I got back to the station before calling Sara; signal on the last part of the journey was dodgy at the best of times and I didn’t need it cutting out when I was in the middle of this conversation. Standing by the bus stop, I dialled and waited. “Hello?” A female voice I thought I recognised answered. “Hey, is that Sara?” “Yes…” A note of suspicion crept into her voice, no doubt assuming I was a cold caller about to offer her compensation after an accident. “It’s Mason. Mason Miles.” A shriek down the line had me holding the phone away from my ear. “Oh. My. God. Mason!” “Tasha gave me your number. She’s moving in with Luke and there’s a spare room at yours.” There seemed little point in beating around the bush. “I never expected you to call me though. What will Ems say?” Sara laughed. “No idea, haven’t spoken to her in a while.” “Huh. And don’t I know it.” Sara paused. “It was a bit of a shitty thing to do, Mason.” “What? Tell her my plans to go on a secondment to further my career, offer her the opportunity to come with me and have her walk out on me? It wasn’t all one-sided, you know.” I don’t know why I felt the need to defend myself, given that all of this had happened eons ago. But I needed a place to live and without Sara’s support, I wouldn’t get a roof over my head. Sara let out a sigh. “Yeah, you’re right. Anyway, that’s all water under the bridge and I expect you’ve got some hot chick in New York, so there’s no need for Ems to stress.” I didn’t answer and let her think that was the truth. “About this room?” “Oh, yes. Look, Ems is working late tonight, why don’t you come around about six and see what you think.” Suddenly, I had a vision of the future where Ems and I would be taking turns in working late in order to avoid each other. But I needed a place to stay and if that was how it would be, I’d have to deal with it.

Excerpt

“Remind me why we’re doing this again?” I winced as a woman literally stuck a pin into me. “We’re saving my mum’s skin,” declared Amber, my best friend. Which was why I stood in a freezing cold corridor in a thin satin slip dress, having the bodice altered to make it fit properly. “Keep still,” hissed the woman through a mouthful of pins. “I don’t want to get blood on this dress.” I did as I was told, trying not to shiver and inadvertently get pricked. Amber had roped me into modelling at the Ealynn Sands Annual Summer Fashion Pageant. Her mother worked in the hotel which hosted it, and two girls they’d lined up to model had dropped out at the last minute. So Sonya had spoken to Amber, who’d spoken to me, and before long we were trying on outfits and now being made up to within an inch of our lives. While I enjoyed fashion, my interests lay on the other side of the industry in marketing and PR. This week, I’d got the news I’d been accepted for an internship next summer with a prestigious consultancy in New York. It was everything I wanted… Macy’s, Bloomingdale’s. Audrey Hepburn in Breakfast at Tiffany’s. Central Park and yellow cabs…you name it, I was ready. Anything to do with the Big Apple and I wanted it. When I’d told her, Amber had been excited for me, even though it meant missing out on our usual summer plans. Selfishly, I didn’t care. One summer away from here wouldn’t hurt anyone, well, except maybe Amber. She would miss me. “Excuse me, ladies,” a male voice cut through the excited chatter in the corridor, “coming through!” My gaze fell on the waiter pushing through the hallway with a tray full of empty plates and dirty cutlery. Dark curly hair, brown and gold eyes, and a muscled body clad in the regulation uniform of black jeans with a black and white horizontal striped t-shirt. I practically drooled. Justin Navarro. For years, he and I had danced around each other every summer. Almost getting together. Almost, but not quite. He brushed past me, his arm skimming my nipples, which tightened enough in response that he noticed and paused. The corner of his mouth quirked, his eyes catching mine. “Sorry,” he murmured. The low octave of his voice sent waves down my spine.

Best laid plans and all that right? At least that’s how Lennon’s life seems to be going. She has plans to go to New York and live this glamorous life, until things happen. Lennon and Justin strike sparks off each other from the jump. But Lennon is an entitled, rich princess, or so Justin thinks, so she’s off limits. Plus she’s leaving town. Justin isn’t necessarily what I’d call a boy from the wrong side of the tracks but he’s definitely not in Lennon’s neighborhood, even though they have the same friend group. Justin and Lennon both have a case of judging a book by it’s cover and being wrong. Justin is not what Lennon thinks and Lennon isn’t what Justin thinks. A good story that teaches you not to judge people at first glance. 4 stars!
