trying not to be bothered by Jack, trailing feet behind me who I get off to most lonely nights.

After I’ve shown the senator our entire facility and answered a million questions, we’ve circled back to my office. Robert comes slow jogging down the hallway, getting all of our attention. “I’m so sorry I was caught up. I got here as soon as I could.”

“It’s no problem,” the senator says. “Jack and the lovely Tori have been taking very good care of me.” The man gives me a smile that teeters on creepy.

“That’s great. Is there anything else left to see in this building?” Robert asks.

“No, I think I’m all set.” The man gives me one last smile. “It was so nice to meet you.” He turns to Jack. “Nice to meet you, too, son.”

Dismissed of our duties, Jack and I watch them walk down the hall. With every step they take, the tension between us thickens.

Jack is the first to speak. “I’m not sure if he was really nice or interested in you.”

I glance down at my boobs in my V-neck T-shirt. “Really, you’re not sure?” I turn from him and head to my office. He follows me inside, but he doesn’t say anything, so I say, “Why was that guy here, anyway?”

“Robert’s hoping to get government funding for our outreach program. It’s a longshot.”

“Mmm.” I slide into my chair.

“I saw that you and I are on the same teambuilding weekend.”

I try to quell my smile. “Oh yeah?”

“Yeah. Is that gonna be weird or anything?”

“Why would it be weird?” I ask, typing nonsense into the computer.

“All right, cool. Then it’s not weird.”

I glance up at him. “Is it weird for you?”

“It might be a little weird.”

I cock my head to the side. “What’s it been, a year?”

“It’s been a little over a year.”

I shrug as if I couldn’t give the exact day and hour count since it all ended. “You’re the big man on campus. I’m sure it wouldn’t take you much to get one of us switched.”

“It wouldn’t, but I don’t need that. Do you need that?”

“Did I say I needed that?”

“Nope.” He grips the door, and I imagine the muscles in his forearm working under that sleeve.

“Then I guess I’ll see you next weekend,” I say.

“Guess so.” He leaves, and I let out a huge sigh, closing my eyes. “I forgot to tell you.”

I perk up and see he’s back in the doorway, dammit. “Yeah?”

“I didn’t look at your chest in that shirt once.” He heads out, and I grit my teeth, having no idea how this man has the power to crank my body temperature up to scalding.

Find out if Jack can win Tori back!

Acknowledgments

The Destiny Dunes world is one that has been in my mind and on the page in some form for many years. Other books took priority for one reason or another, but I found myself, almost daily, dreaming about Kylie’s and Brett’s love story. It was one of those tales that wasn’t going away, and I’m thrilled they kept knocking on my door!

First and foremost, I’d like to thank my partner in romance crime, Amy Knupp for gently nudging me on a daily basis to become better at all facets of this business. I’m so thankful we’ve made this rare and dynamic connection, and my sincere hope is to one day contribute as much knowledge, skill, and overall awesomeness to this friendship as you do!

Humongous thanks to my loyal and invaluable beta readers—Jessica Calla and Kristen Kovach. I think one or both of you have read most everything I’ve ever written, published or not! Thank you for loving romance novels and for knowing them and the market so well!

Thank you so much to my romance author marketing group—Amanda, Amy, Beth, Christine, Janet, Jessica, Jody, Lulu, Monica, Rob, Sahara, and Shannon. I live for our biweekly meetings! I’m learning so much from each of you. Thank you for being the supportive and sharing group that you are!

And finally, thanks goes as always to my whole world—my husband Jody and our son, Collin. Thanks for putting up with all the writing and writer-related stuff I do on a daily basis! You’re both beyond understanding and supportive. Love you both around the world and back.
