LOGINShe’s sunshine, glitter, and impulsive chaos. He’s suit-and-tie, headlines, and cold steel control. Together? Absolutely not... right? Jace Whitmore and Lily Thompson have *history*-the kind neither of them talks about, but both remember. She remembers him as the tall, egotistical jerk who kissed her stupid... then told her he wouldn’t touch her with a six-foot pole. RUDE. And infuriatingly unforgettable. He remembers her as the pint-sized menace who’s far too cute for his sanity. Her pout? Weaponized. That glitter obsession? Unbearable. Her... everything? Inexplicably addictive. And while she’s not his type (his type being supermodels with legs for days), his eyes, and maybe something else, never got that memo. He’s the reformed playboy now forced to run his family’s billion-dollar empire. She’s a glitter-wearing, bubble-blowing whirlwind of trouble who wants to get revenge on her ex. He’s the suit-clad face of responsibility. She’s the younger sister of his friend. And exactly no one thinks they should be within ten feet of each other. It started with one forbidden kiss. One very personal grudge… One impulsive decision… And the fear of things becoming real.
View MoreLILYPierce Blackwood is a scary man. At some point in our lives, before baby number one had even dropped, I was sure he was going to kill my sister. Very wrong assumption.But the way he looked at Jace now, I was sure he would commit murder.“I have no idea what’s going on either, this is ALL her.” Jace answered casually and strolled to the couch farthest away from me, where he sprawled, one long leg crossed over the other.Stupid big man. How dare he be so comfortable, this was serious!“Lily!” Myra yelled. I turned, my cheeks red. I had only looked at him for a second. Ah yes…the explanation.I started with an apology. “I am sooo sorry I roped you all into this, it really isn’t how I thought the night would go.” I took in a deep breath readying myself. On top of my heart wrenching experience, I had to narrate said heart wrenching experience that same night, to everyone in the room (including Jace) AND tell it in a way that gathered enough sympathy to make them all go with my plan.
LILYThe first empty room he could find, Taser pushed me into. A little too roughly, but I couldn’t complain since it meant he was angry. Exactly what I wanted.I smoothed my unwrinkled gown, lifted my chin up and looked at him.“What the hell was that? What do you mean he’s been asking you out? Have you been cheating on me? After all the times I’ve been there for you-“I barked out a laugh in surprise, “did you really just accuse me of cheating? When I walked in on you with my bestfriend a few minutes ago? You’re impossible.He clenched his jaw, his eyes narrowed at me. “And I explained why that happened. Is this some kind of payback tantrum? Fine, you’ve publicly embarasssed me, and unlike you, I won’t hold this mistake against you, we can move on.”“Move on with what?”“The bracepass!” Ihe looked at me like I was the dumbest woman on the planet and it dawned on me that he looked at me like that a lot.Like I was an idiot whose tantrums he tolerated.“Timothy…” I called him his real
JACEThe sound of laughter rang out from my left and I hummed in disapproval.Why the hell was I here again?Myra giggled beside me and I turned to look at my friend’s grinning face.“God, you’re such a grouch.” She teased, the corners of her eyes crinkling.“Myra, the only words I want to hear from your mouth are ‘Oh Jace my savior, thank you for accompanying me to this party instead of working all night like my husband’ anything else, zip it.”I had at least three contracts to review with my secretary, let’s not forget Michael’s proposal for the quaterly convention ….last year’s was bad and I had to make sure everything went smoothly this time around. I knew there was something else I was forgetting.So far I’d run the company for a full year without burning in to the ground, but me and everyone who knew me thought there was still time for that. No one would be surprised if I screw up.“Jace.”“What?” I asked, sounding irritated. I noticed a pair of girls whispering to themselves as
LILYI met Taser four years ago at one of the bars I stopped at while on the run. I had done something horrible at home which led to my mother’s death. I couldn’t face my sister Myra, and did the only thing I knew how to: run…hide. Taser was easy to be around and after a couple shared drinks, I told him everything. Well almost everything. But we had been together ever since. As friends at first, but then he finally asked me out, and even though he wanted us to be quiet about it, almost everyone had hinted at us dating; presently or in the future.Then a year later, Evie showed up. The beautiful darkhaired, tall and sarcastic marvel . After she talked to me at our first class together, I knew she would be my best friend forever and introduced her to Taser. She loved everything I loved, except him, who she hated being around. I guess that changed… or better, it was never true. Taser and Evie were in a shouting match and I had somehow found my way into a seat by the dressing table.
