BLURB:
Forty-four year old Julie Weston has loved Timmy and James
since her college days twenty something years ago. She's fantasized about both
all these long years, never able to choose between them.
Hoping Tim and James will attend, she attends their college
marching band reunion. When both men show up her dreams are answered. They're
sexier than she imagined and she hopes they won't be disappointed by her older
self.
It turns out both men came just to see her again and neither
is happy about the other’s presence. They fight over her, confusing her more
than ever. It takes a hot ménage…or two…for her heart to decide which one she’s
in love with.
EXCERPT:
Oh God. She couldn’t make up her mind, just as she’d feared. They were both
fulfilling her dreams and almost her
fantasies. Why couldn’t she be like Connie and love just one man?
“I’m
single. And confused,” she admitted unhappily, hoping and praying her answer
wouldn’t drive either man away before her heart could decide who it wanted. She
held her breath, waiting for James to drop her on her ass and leave in disgust.
But
he stayed. His eyes darkened. His fingers bit into her arms, but he didn’t walk
away. Instead, he kissed her again, rubbing his groin against her. When he
finally released her, he promised, “Game on.”
Tim
stomped over and shoved James away. “What the hell was that?”
James
pushed him back. “What in the hell does it look like?”
“Keep
your hands off her.”
“I
don’t see a ring on her finger, and she started it.”
Tim
wrinkled his brow, captured her hand and yanked her to him. “She’s had too much
to drink.”
Again
she help up one finger and repeated, “I just had one.” She thought it best not
to mention the Benadryl.
With
sad eyes, Tim asked, “Who do you want? Me or him?”
Fighting
back sudden, scalding tears, she freed herself, stepped back and regarded both
men. “I don’t know.”
Tim’s
expression grew incredulous as if she’d struck him. He echoed, “You don’t know?
Since when do you like him?”
“Maybe
since you dumped her,” James said with a sneer. He puffed up and faced off with
Tim. “If you don’t like it, back out. I’m going to fight for her—like I should
have before.”
Tim’s
eyes grew large as saucers. “I had no idea. You were with Theresa…”
“Theresa
dropped me like a hot cake. And you disappeared.”
“And
I heard she was going out with Gus, not you.” Tim looked around as though to
make sure Gus wasn’t about to pop out of nowhere.
She
heaved a sigh. “Gus was my friend. He fell for me, not vice versa. I feel bad
if I led him on. It wasn’t intentional.”
“Like
me? You never realized I liked you as more than a friend,” Phil interjected as
he danced nearby with Anita.
She
blanched and wanted to evaporate.
James
winked. “It seems you were quite the siren, leaving all of us shipwrecked in
your wake.”
Stunned,
she clasped her hand to her throat. “I swear, I had no clue. I’m so sorry.”
“Yet
you’re still leaving us in your wake, honey.” Tim glared at all of them and
fisted his hands on his hips.
Honey? She didn’t like the sound of that.
