About Right Next Door:
My fiancé is officially a married man. The only problem is that he isn’t married to me. . .
Addison Peacock has been stuck in the same seaside town her entire life. When her college boyfriend proposes the night before graduation, she can finally see the future she’d always dreamt about. But the sudden illness of her father causes her to put that future on hold, and her soon-to-be husband leaves, with nothing but a promise that one day he’ll return.
Now, five years later, he’s kept that promise. There’s only one problem . . . he’s already married. Crushed twice by the same man, Addison needs a distraction, someone to get her back on her feet and mend her broken heart. As luck would have it, Damian Walker has just moved in next door.
Having rebuilt his own life after a drunk driver stole his career, his heart . . . everything, Damian knows what it’s going to take to get Addison’s life back on track. But he’s not going to be anyone’s rebound. His life is complicated . . . there’s no room for one-night stands. Until Addison knows what she’s looking for, neighbors are all they’ll ever be.
One shared wall, two sun-kissed balconies, and a chance at love...a twist of fate. Could the possibility of a future be right next door?
Excerpt:
The door flies open, slamming
against the inside wall, and momentarily startling me. “What now!”
At
first, I’m caught off guard by her irate greeting, but as she stands frozen in
the doorway, her eyes grow wide in surprise, and a blush shadows her ivory
face.
Damn.
She’s beautiful.
I
have to bite my lip to stifle a grin.
“I’m
sorry. I thought you were somebody else.” Her tongue darts out and licks
nervously at her lips. An intense desire to capture it between my teeth and
slide it between my own lips spikes through me.
Leaning
casually against her doorframe, I cross my arms over my chest. “I heard
something crash. Is everything okay?”
Her
shoulders drop slightly, and her hard eyes soften, meeting mine. “Yeah,
everything’s fine. A friend made me angry, and I threw a vase at the wall.”
This
time I can’t hide my amusement. “You either have a very short fuse or an
asshole for a friend.”
The
tension slips further from her shoulders, and she smiles at my remark. “It’s
the latter.”
Shit,
so maybe model dude is her boyfriend. What am I doing here? I don’t have time
in my life for shit like this, but I also can’t seem to make my feet walk away.
“Well,
I can promise I’m not an asshole, and I’m not doing anything tonight. Do you
want to grab a drink?” She looks down at her watch and bites her bottom lip in
contemplation, her hesitancy making me uneasy.
“Come
on, Green Eyes, it’s only nine o’clock.” Pathetic, I’m begging a girl I should
be running from to have a drink with me.
Those
eyes instantly meet mine and are filled with a sudden shine that wasn’t there a
minute ago.
“Do
you want to come in and watch American Ninja Warrior with me?” The request
comes so quickly I almost miss it. In fact, the only part I understood was that
she wants me to come inside her place. Hell yeah, I’m coming inside. But first,
I need to know what we’re doing because at this moment, what my dick hears is
‘coming inside’ and it has its own idea as to what that means.
Suddenly
she’s laughing, and it’s awesome. Her entire face brightens, and her eyes
twinkle like I’ve never seen. Her happiness is settling in my chest and making
me grin at her like a damn schoolboy.
“You
have no idea what I’m talking about do you?” Her laughter subsides and leaves
her with a smile that is . . . stunning.
“No
clue. Only that you asked me in, and yet, I’m still standing in your doorway.”
