He
chuckles and all of a sudden my back straightens. “That’s their schedule,
Ships. Ours is a secret.” He abruptly
stands and grabs my hand to pull me up. My body jolts at the connection that
sitting side by side with him all this time has had buzzing just beneath the
surface. As if knowing he was close enough to touch but not really touching was
an awareness all in itself. I know he can feel it too. That I’m not alone.
Because the words on his lips falter momentarily before he recovers. And a part
of me wants to stay like this a bit longer but know it’s just that missed
connection we lost so long ago that’s causing the sensations to simmer to the
surface. Nostalgia. Muscle memory of the heart. “C’mon. Let’s go.”
“Go?”
“Yes. Go.
It’ll be easier if you think of this whole trip as an adventure rather than their wedding.”
“And
what? You’re my tour guide?”
“If
that’s what you want to call me. I prefer cruise director though, considering
we’re kind of stuck with the nautical theme, Ships.” He winks and holds his hand out.
“Oh,
please.” I roll my eyes.
“Or captain.”
“You’re
certifiable, you know that?” I shake my head and he pulls on my hand to help me
stand.
“Quite
possibly, but all that matters is I’m in charge of this schedule, and we need
to get a move on it. Your adventure awaits.”
“And, oh
captain, my captain, that adventure is what?” I drag my feet like a child,
curious what he’s talking about but smiling nonetheless.
“Do you
actually think I’m going to tell you?” He dazzles me with that smile I can’t
resist. “Didn’t you know? Spontaneity is the best kind of adventure.”
Oh. Shit.
Sweet Cheeks by K. Bromberg is LIVE
on November 14th!
Pre-order your copy here:
It all started with the invitation. To my ex-fiance’s new
wedding.
I should have ignored it.Thrown it away. Set it afire. But I
didn’t. I replied.
With a plus one.
And then my assistant accidentally mailed it.
Enter Hayes Whitley. Mega-movie star. The man who has
captured the hearts of millions. But I gave him mine years ago. He was my first
love. He was my everything. Right until he up and left to chase his dreams
without so much as a simple goodbye.
When he showed up out of the blue ten years later, I should
have known to steer clear. I should have rejected his offer to take me to my
ex’s wedding. I should have never let him kiss me.
But I didn’t.
And now we’re left wondering if the pieces of the life we
once shared still fit together somehow. First loves are hard to forget. The
question is, do we want to forget? Or do we risk the chance and see what
happens next?
New York Times Bestselling author K.
Bromberg writes contemporary novels that contain a mixture of sweet, emotional,
a whole lot of sexy and a little bit of real. She likes to write strong
heroines and damaged heroes who we love to hate and hate to love.
She’s a mixture of most of her female
characters: sassy, intelligent, stubborn, reserved, outgoing, driven,
emotional, strong, and wears her heart on her sleeve. All of which she displays
daily with her husband and three children where they live in Southern
California.
On a whim, K. Bromberg decided to try her
hand at this writing thing. Since then she has written The Driven Series
(Driven, Fueled, Crashed, Raced, Aced), the standalone Driven Novels (Slow
Burn, Sweet Ache, Hard Beat, and Down Shift (Releasing 10/4/16)), and a short
story titled UnRaveled. She is currently finishing up Sweet Cheeks a standalone
novel out at the end of 2016.
Her plans for 2017 include a sports
romance duet (The Player (#1) and The Catch (#2)) and the Everyday Heroes
series (Cuffed (#1), Combust (#2), and Cockpit (#3). She’s also writing a
novella for the 1,001 Dark Night series that will be out in February 2017.
She loves to hear from her readers so make sure you check her out on social
media.
