Synopsis: Levi Black is an s.o.b.
Born with a silver spoon in his mouth, heโs a pretentious, obnoxious, womanizing jacka** who thinks the world revolves around him.
He wouldnโt be wrong.
A famous soccer player, his skills on and off the field have won him medals, trophies, women, and the cover of every heartthrob magazine in the country. Heโs broken nearly every bone in his body and a few hearts along the way, including mineโhis stepsisterโand lived to tell about it.
One night changed everything, and Iโve avoided him like the plague ever since. Just long enough to finish college, to bury the hurt, and to outrun the memories. But now thatโs all changed. Iโm back, and thereโs no more running.
My hands are supposed to be my livelihood, but now theyโre my curse. Leviโs reckless ways have landed him in a sticky situation, and his father has given me an offer I canโt refuse. One month, and all I have to do is put my hands on his body. Easier said than done. The problem is, even though I know itโs bound to bite me in the a**, I canโt bring myself to say no to the s.o.b.
EXCERPT
Holy shit. I donโt know if I can do this. Vista is a problem. My problem. Having her here, in my home, is going to change everything.
Who am I kidding? It already has. But it doesnโt have to, a voice in my head whispers.
One month.
Thatโs all I have to get through, and then my life can return to normal. I can go back to pretending she doesnโt exist, doesnโt matter.
One month. I repeat the words in my head until theyโre keeping time with the beat of my heart. Theyโre my new mantra.
One month.
One month.
Piece of cake.
Now all I have to do is believe the lie.
โUnless youโve developed an unhealthy attraction to stairs I donโt know about, quit staring into space and get over here, jackass,โ Vincent calls out. โIโm not a one man circus. Help me keep these bitches entertained.โ
The women gasp as if offended by Vincentโs crassness, but theyโre not. They are bitches, and they know it. Hell, theyโve made it an art. Itโs what makes them attractive to menโbeing unattainable.
Except to me.
Being who I am, women like them are a dime a dozen, which grew boring ten minutes ago.
I stare up at the empty staircase for a moment longer before kicking a crutch out behind me and twisting around to join the party with the realization that choking down the lie is going to be damn near impossible.
I canโt ignore the hollow ache in my stomach thatโs formed from just seeing her any more than I can ignore the throbbing pulse thatโs demanding attention in my jeans.
Vista Marquis thinks a few stairs can keep me from getting to her? Then she doesnโt really know me.
I can obtain anything I want.
Iโm Levi-fucking-Black, and just like my father, I make shit happen.
