SYNOPSIS
Determined to live out a lifelong dream, Kat Hilliard moves cross country after college to New York City to chase her destiny. Knocking out 140 character tweets for a financial firm by day and engaging in all the sexy options New York has to offer by night, Kat is not prepared when New York’s most eligible bachelor, Reese Tremaine, bumps into her on a downtown train. Her simple life will never be the same.
Swept into the hideaways and haunts of the extremely rich and decadent, burdened by an unwanted celebrity, Kat fights to remain true to herself as great sex, a heated political campaign and the dark secrets of a soldier returned home push her toward the one mistake that could keep her from living out her New York fairytale.
Slowly fading into the shadows I step lightly away and down
the street making my way to the white sports car with the dimly glowing
dashboard lights within. I cross over to the passenger side door and knock
quietly on the glass.
The door clicks unlocked. I hesitate before opening the door
and getting down into the car. I stare at Reese’s tender eyes as I pull the
door closed. The dome light turns off. His eyes continue sparkling with the
reds and greens of the dashboard.
“I waited,” he says.
We stare at each other a long time. Eventually, I reach out
and take his powerful hand and hold it. “What do you want?” I say. “A cookie?”
Reese grins. An electric tingle shoots through my belly. The
car pulls away from the curb and begins moving quickly. The engine is so silent
I didn’t even know it was on.
I keep his hand, gripping it tightly as I let both our hands
rest on my left thigh. We don’t say another word while he drives quickly
through the abandoned residential streets of the Brooklyn night.
The excitement of us fills up the small, contained space
inside his expensive, low to the ground sports car. My defenses are down. I
bathe in the drowning magic of our undeniable connection. I accept all the
manipulation, the inconvenience, the likelihood of being used.
Right now it feels right. I am tired of thinking. I needed
to get out of my mind and inside the moment. My eyelids drop. All is black. The
only things I feel are his warm fingers laced with mine.
It’s three a.m. and we race alone across the Brooklyn Bridge
into Manhattan. I lift my hand to touch his beautiful face. When he exhales his
lips form a relaxed smile. The air we breathe becomes rich with the buzzing
need of our beating hearts.
