3:AM Kisses (extended teaser)
Prologue
Baya
Sometimes life has its way
with you. It peels back the layers of your existence like the skin of an onion until
the real you glows underneath, raw and painful to the touch. It’s in those
moments, in that hour, you look to those that give you strength—for me, that
person was my brother. He was the one that put me on a pedestal after tragedy
struck in our young lives. He promised to always look after me. To make sure
that I wouldn’t stumble in life and that the right people would land beside me
along the way. It’s no coincidence most of those people were of the estrogen
card-carrying variety. My brother loves me so much he pinned me high on the
good girl board long before I could have contested the effort, and, now that
I’m admiring the view below, I’m not so sure I want to be the poster child for
innocence anymore.
It’s
funny how something like death, which isn’t funny at all, can shape your
destiny. When my father was alive, all he talked about was his heyday at
Whitney Briggs, and, of course, being little I imagined him stuck on a farm,
pitching straw over his shoulder—but Whitney Briggs is a far cry from any
countryside barn. Whitney Briggs University is billed as a cosmopolitan
educational institution tucked in the blue mountains of North Carolina, and, so,
after he died, both my brother and I set our scholastic compass in that
direction. That’s where destiny kicks in, and I meet him.
Bryson
Edwards. Even his name makes me sigh.
He’s
right here, and I want nothing more than to close the gap between us until he
falls into me. I’m boiling over, ready to have him, ready for him to have me
any way he wishes.
I stretch
my arms up over my head and wriggle my body into his mattress.
His chest
ticks with a silent laugh. “Whatever it is you’re doing, keep doing it.” A seam
of moonlight catches his features, exposing the fact he clearly approves.
“I’m
settling in.” I twist my hips into the bed. “I think I could get a good night’s
sleep here.”
“Oh,
sweetie”—he growls it out as the smile slides off his face —“if you spent the
night in my room, there wouldn’t be a whole hell of a lot of sleeping going
on.” His fiery breath sears over my mouth like a promise. “And, if you did
happen to fall asleep, I’d be guilty of doing something very, very wrong.”
My
fingers run down his granite-like abs and unbutton his jeans. I glide down the
bed and plant a kiss just above his boxers.
“I don’t
plan on sleeping,” I say, it low like a threat. “And neither should you.”
On to the teasers!!!
ENTROPY (The Countenance Trilogy 3)
*Cooper’s POV
Cooper with his little sister Marky
“If Laken doesn’t pick you, I’ll hate you
forever.” She snarls at me as if there were an underlying physical threat
buried in her words.
“If Laken doesn’t pick me, I’ll be damned forever.” In the Tenebrous Woods, but I leave that part out. Even if I was still
above ground I’d be damned without Laken.
CELESTRA FOREVER AFTER
*Skyla’s POV (In the
nether-sphere with her biological mother)
“And how does forever
fit in with Gage dying?”
“In God’s arms, forever in our hearts—time heals all wounds
and all that good stuff. Take your pick, mix and match. I’m sure you’ll find some
adage to make you feel better. Now, be gone. I’m having dinner with your
father.”
Hope you enjoyed the teasers and I hope you really enjoy 3:AM Kisses! Happy reading!!!
