LOGINShe lives on her own terms. He’s living on borrowed time. Neither of them planned on falling—especially not for each other. Blue has made a life out of leaving. Her summer is all dusty boots, soft sunsets, and smoky guitar covers shared with millions of followers from the back of her boho van. Portland was supposed to be a quick visit—just her best friend, a short-term gig harvesting,, and a little time to breathe.But then there’s Teddy.He’s the brooding, blue-eyed lead singer of No Name, the local grunge band with a sound that hits like a bruise and a smile that makes her forget how to breathe. He’s wild onstage and guarded off of it, carrying secrets behind that slow-burning gaze. He’s everything she never wanted: complicated, magnetic, dangerous in a way that feels too good to ignore.What starts as stolen glances and flirtation under stage lights turns into something hotter, deeper, harder to walk away from.They come from different worlds—but under the heat of a summer that feels endless, they collide in all the wrong ways that somehow feel right.And the only thing harder than falling for him… is trusting he won’t break her.
View MoreThe first thing I’m aware of is light. Pale and drowsy, it filters through the thin curtains and paints soft shadows across the bed. My eyes adjust slowly, but the moment they land on her, I forget how to breathe. Blue. She’s lying on her side, one arm tucked under her cheek, the sheet just barely covering her lower back. Her skin glows in the quiet morning light—golden and warm like she’s lit from within. Her hair is a chaotic masterpiece on the pillow, tangled curls and sun-kissed strands that beg to be touched. I can’t stop staring. I don’t want to. Every inch of her, every freckle and curve, is burned into my brain like a fever dream I never want to wake from. “If you keep looking at me like that,” she murmurs, eyes still closed, voice low and rough from sleep, “we won’t leave this room.” I grin, slow and lazy. “That’s the best idea you’ve had all morning.” Her eyes flutter open, and she points at me like she’s trying to be serious, but her smirk gives her away. “You’ll ruin
Teddy reached into his pocket, pulled out the key card, and swiped it. The light blinked green. He pushed the door open, and there he was—Tyler. Tail wagging like he’d been counting the seconds since we left. I dropped to my knees and let him knock the air out of me with a happy bark and a slobbery kiss to the cheek. “Missed you too, buddy,” I muttered, scratching behind his ears. Teddy closed the door behind us and ruffled Tyler’s fur as he passed. “Come on,” he said, nodding toward the hallway. We walked to the bedroom. I peeled off my shoes, letting the soft carpet take the ache out of my feet. Teddy disappeared into the bathroom. I heard the faucet twist, then the sound of rushing water. I didn’t follow him right away—I just stood there, watching him work through the open door. He checked the water with his hand. Dropped in something that fizzed and turned the water a soft pink. Steam started to rise, and he rolled his sleeves up to his elbows. He looked up and caught me wat
I didn’t know what Teddy was thinking when he grabbed my hand and pulled me off the dance floor. He didn’t say a word—just took me. The music was pounding behind us, but his silence was louder. It made my chest tight, my pulse spike. I thought he was heading for the bathrooms. But no—he pushed through a door marked staff only, like it meant nothing. Like he owned the damn place. I barely had time to register the flickering hallway lights before he yanked open another door and pulled me into a stairwell. The second it shut behind us, he was on me. My back hit the wall, and his mouth was on mine—hungry, rough, like he hadn’t touched me in years. His body crushed into mine, all heat and muscle, and I couldn’t help the noise that slipped from me. I gripped his shirt like I needed it to stay standing, kissing him back like I meant it. Because I did. Then he was hiking up my skirt, not hesitating. His fingers found me fast, sliding between my thighs like he already knew what he’d find.
The bass hit me in the chest the second we stepped into Omnia. Lights flickered and danced across the sea of bodies, casting everyone in flashes of gold and violet. The air was thick with perfume, sweat, and the undeniable electricity of a Vegas night at its peak. Music pulsed through the walls, the kind of beat that made it impossible to stand still. Our group moved through the crowd toward the velvet-rope section reserved for us. Teddy’s hand brushed the small of my back, a light touch that sent heat down my spine. When we reached the table, drinks were ordered—rounds of shots and fruity cocktails that hit fast and hard. My head buzzed with tequila, laughter, and Teddy’s scent, warm and spicy as he leaned in. I wrapped my arms around his neck and kissed him. It started soft, but I got carried away. His hands tightened around my waist as my tongue slid against his. A little too intense for public, maybe, but I didn’t care. Let them watch. I wanted everyone in this place to know who
