I tugged at the hem of my oversized shirt, painfully aware of how it hung awkwardly off one shoulder, and wished I had taken the time to at least run a brush through my tangled, wet hair. We weren’t even completely dressed before the power in the old building went out, and we had to find all the candles in my apartment.<\/p>\n

Matt moved around the kitchen. Each time he glanced my way, my heart skipped a beat, and a warm flutter rippled through my stomach. I caught myself holding my breath, only to release it in a shaky exhale when he turned away. He made me nervous, not in an I-want-to-throw-up way, but in a butterflies-in-my-stomach kind of way. Glancing out the corner of my eyes, I studied him. His island-tanned skin glistened in the can- dlelight, and his dark hair fell loosely to his shoulders in wet waves.<\/p>\n

He stood shirtless in a pair of low, very low, dangerously low-hang- ing grey sweatpants and nothing else. He reached for the wine bottle, arm stretching across the counter. The movement pulled his shoulders taut, and I found myself tracing the line of muscle with my eyes. When he caught me staring, heat pooled low in my belly. “See something you like?” His voice was rougher than before. I forced my eyes back to his face, but they betrayed me, dropping to trace the lean muscle of his torso before I could stop them.<\/p>\n

When I realized where I was looking, I jerked my gaze away, but the damage was done. I bit my lip, my mouth suddenly dry. Unbidden, images flashed through my mind: his hands on my skin, his body pressing me into the mattress, his lips on mine. “Earth to Brooke.” His voice snapped me back to reality, a hint of amusement in his tone.<\/p>\n

I blinked, heat creeping up my neck. “Hmm?” “You seem\u2026 lost in thought.” His lips quirked into a half-smile. “Oh, I was just,” I fumbled for words, “admiring the, uh, crafts- manship. Of your tattoos.” He chuckled, low and warm. “Is that what we’re calling it now?” He slid the wine toward me, his fingers brushing mine as I reached for it. For a heartbeat, neither of us moved to break the con- tact.<\/p>\n

Then Karen’s judgmental meow shattered the moment, and we both pulled back, laughing. “Your cat is staring at me.”.<\/p>\n

1kitap1.com\/en Prologue Anniversary Surprise “I’m not attracted to you,” Chris blurted out, then immediately winced. His shoulders sank with a heavy sigh, as if he’d been carry- ing this secret around like an overpacked suitcase. Time seemed to stop. The air grew thick, not romantic thick, but more like someone had forgotten to turn on the fan thick. Each heartbeat pounded in my ears while my brain struggled to process what I’d just heard.<\/p>\n

“What?” My voice emerged as barely a whisper. My hand flew to my chest, partly for dramatic effect and partly because I genuinely thought I might be having a heart attack. I searched his face for any sign this was an elaborate anniversary prank. Maybe he’d hired ac- tors. Maybe there were hidden cameras. Maybe I was on some twist- ed reality show called Destroy Your Wife’s Self-Esteem for Cash.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n
