Good Vibration by S.L Scott ~ Tour Stop



I grab her exploring finger just as it reaches my happy trail—a trail that if I let her wander down further will lead us to do things we can’t take back. Things like three-word phrases being confessed that would end me if I was rejected. Things like selfishly wanting to own her body and doing things to her that would make my fantasies blush. And things like making her promises too soon that won’t do either of us any good. She makes me want a future that’s not possible, and one I don’t deserve.

Listening to my ego got me into this situation. Will listening to my heart get me out?



Excerpt

"Looks like you've been stood up, sweetie.  How about I give you a ride?"  He draws out the last word for me to catch his double meaning.

I look at this smug, arcissistic jack-off and reply in my own smartass way.  "Giving  me a ride will probably put you out."

"Only if it's good, and I've got all day to find out."

There's something about him.  Yes, he's arrogant.  Yes, he's hot, but all that aside, his confidence is also sort of attractive.

Sunny convinced me to spend my summer on the islands, encouraging me to come here and live a little.   Well, here I am.  Might as well start living it up now, and really, he is just too delectable to refuse.  He might be exactly what I need-- a carefree goodtime.  Ridding myself of all logic and good reasoning, I say, "My day just opened up.  I think I'll take you up on that ride." (Kindle location 93 of eARC)
