Excerpt
He
chuckles and all of a sudden my back straightens. “That’s their schedule,
Ships. Ours is a secret.” He abruptly stands and grabs my hand to pull me up.
My body jolts at the connection that sitting side by side with him all this
time has had buzzing just beneath the surface. As if knowing he was close
enough to touch but not really touching was an awareness all in itself. I know
he can feel it too. That I’m not alone. Because the words on his lips falter
momentarily before he recovers. And a part of me wants to stay like this a bit
longer but know it’s just that missed connection we lost so long ago that’s
causing the sensations to simmer to the surface. Nostalgia. Muscle memory of
the heart. “C’mon. Let’s go.”
“Go?”
“Yes.
Go. It’ll be easier if you think of this whole trip as an adventure rather than
their wedding.”
“And
what? You’re my tour guide?”
“If
that’s what you want to call me. I prefer cruise director though, considering
we’re kind of stuck with the nautical theme, Ships.” He winks and holds his
hand out.
“Oh,
please.” I roll my eyes.
“Or
captain.”
“You’re
certifiable, you know that?” I shake my head and he pulls on my hand to help me
stand.
“Quite
possibly, but all that matters is I’m in charge of this schedule, and we need
to get a move on it. Your adventure awaits.”
“And,
oh captain, my captain, that adventure is what?” I drag my feet like a child,
curious what he’s talking about but smiling nonetheless.
“Do
you actually think I’m going to tell you?” He dazzles me with that smile I
can’t resist. “Didn’t you know? Spontaneity is the best kind of adventure.”
Oh.
Shit.

It all started with the invitation. To
my ex-fiance’s new wedding.
I should have ignored it.Thrown it away.
Set it afire. But I didn’t. I replied.
With a plus one.
And then my assistant accidentally
mailed it.
Enter Hayes Whitley. Mega-movie star.
The man who has captured the hearts of millions. But I gave him mine years ago.
He was my first love. He was my everything. Right until he up and left to chase
his dreams without so much as a simple goodbye.
When he showed up out of the blue ten
years later, I should have known to steer clear. I should have rejected his
offer to take me to my ex’s wedding. I should have never let him kiss me.
But I didn’t.
And now we’re left wondering if the
pieces of the life we once shared still fit together somehow. First loves are
hard to forget. The question is, do we want to forget? Or do we risk the chance
and see what happens next?
Meet the Author
New
York Times Bestselling author K. Bromberg writes contemporary novels that
contain a mixture of sweet, emotional, a whole lot of sexy and a little bit of
real. She likes to write strong heroines and damaged heroes who we love to hate
and hate to love.
She’s
a mixture of most of her female characters: sassy, intelligent, stubborn,
reserved, outgoing, driven, emotional, strong, and wears her heart on her
sleeve. All of which she displays daily with her husband and three children
where they live in Southern California.
On
a whim, K. Bromberg decided to try her hand at this writing thing. Since then
she has written The Driven Series (Driven, Fueled, Crashed, Raced, Aced), the
standalone Driven Novels (Slow Burn, Sweet Ache, Hard Beat, and Down Shift
(Releasing 10/4/16)), and a short story titled UnRaveled. She is currently
finishing up Sweet Cheeks a standalone novel out at the end of 2016.
Her
plans for 2017 include a sports romance duet (The Player (#1) and The Catch
(#2)) and the Everyday Heroes series (Cuffed (#1), Combust (#2), and Cockpit
(#3). She’s also writing a novella for the 1,001 Dark Night series that will be
out in February 2017.
She loves to hear from her readers so make sure you check her out on social media.
