THE WEDDING DATE
Kelly Eadon
Releasing April 5th, 2016
Forever
A
LITTLE FAKE RELATIONSHIP NEVER HURT ANYONE . . .
Kate Massie has big dreams-they just
haven't worked out. Yet. In the meantime, she spends her days clerking for a
judge and her nights fantasizing about her tall, dark, and sexy gym crush. So
when she runs into him one night, she's shocked to realize he was her shy,
nerdy junior-prom date. But that isn't where the surprises end . . .
James Abell needs a date to his
sister's wedding. So when Kate agrees, he's relieved . . . until one little lie
turns their wedding date into a full-blown fake relationship. Only it doesn't
feel fake-not the toe-curling kisses and definitely not the electricity.
Neither of them is looking for something real . . . but they just might fall
for their own little white lie.

Kate
stared at herself in the mirror.
This is just pretend.
What was wrong with her? She’d spent
all week fortifying her internal defenses. When he’d offered to bring her
dinner or keep her company, she’d assured him Beth was taking good care of her.
Now, with only a few words from Margaret, she’d let herself slip back into
fantasy.
A fantasy where she could kiss James
whenever she wanted. Where his strong arms held her at night.
A
tremor passed through her.
No!
She was stronger than this. She needed to convince his family and the other
guests they were dating, not herself. She tore her eyes from the bathroom
mirror and unzipped the garment bag that hung from the shower curtain rod.
She
shimmied into the blue lace dress.
She
had to admit, Ainsley had been right about it.
The fabric skimmed over her body and
showed precisely the right amount of leg. Or it would, once she got it zipped.
She twisted and turned and wiggled, but couldn’t reach the zipper.
Crap. She had to ask James for help.
She
took a deep breath and knocked on the door leading back to the hotel room.
“I’m
dressed.” His deep voice sent goose bumps over her skin.
She cracked the door and poked her head
through. “I hate to ask you this, but I’m stuck. I need you to zip me up.
Please.”
He
kept his attention on the cufflink he was hooking through his button hole.
“Sure.”
She only hesitated for a moment before
she stepped from the bathroom and spun, to give him access to her back.
There
was a zipping sound as his fingers skated over the fabric.
She exhaled sharply. There. It was
over. She turned back to him. “Thank you. I’ll be ready in one minute. I have
to find my necklace first.”
“You look amazing.” James' voice caught
as he stared at her, his eyes a vivid, brilliant gray.
Kate couldn’t tear herself away from
him. His gaze pierced her, suspending her in time and space.
He stepped toward her, curled his palm
around the back of her neck and lowered his mouth to hers. A delicious tingle
surged through her blood and down to her toes as their lips met. He snaked his
other arm around her waist and pulled her against him as his tongue swept into
her mouth.
She tilted her head back and gave
herself over to him, reveling in the feel of his lips against hers. His kiss
turned rougher, more urgent. Her knees went weak and her head swam as she
clutched him.
Her tongue tangled with his, matching
him stroke for stroke. All rational thought fled her mind and she was engulfed
in a cloud of James: his smell, his taste, his touch.
He pulled back for a second and his
eyes glinted as he traced his thumb over her cheek. Then he tightened his grip
around her waist and took the fullness of her lower lip in his mouth. A tiny
moan escaped her as he sucked gently. With every stroke of his tongue, her body
melted further into his. His fingers dug into her back and she could feel his
heart pound through his dress shirt.
A
knock sounded on the door and she stepped back abruptly, breaking the kiss.
His eyes burned with an intensity that
sucked all the air from her lungs. She shifted her gaze to the floor.
No one
had ever kissed her like that.
