Ava
Crawley only had one dream in life; grow up and marry the boy next door, Jeremy
Henley. When she was twenty, her dream was crushed by her nasty, vindictive,
deceitful sister Kennedy. Unable to handle the hurt, Ava fled.
Jeremy
Henley is a Sky Cowboy in Australia’s Northern Territory. Along with his twin
brother, Jackson, he is Pine Creek’s finest catch. Jeremy doesn’t give a damn
about that, he only cares about the most beautiful woman he’s ever seen; Ava
Crawley. After years of waiting for Ava to show an interest in him, an
opportunity presents itself and Jeremy takes it. Then, Ava up and leaves for
France. No explanation. No goodbye. Nothing. She doesn’t come back for three
years, and when she does, Jeremy has a baby son.
Will Ava and Jeremy be able
to overcome the pain of the past and give their love a chance? Or, will Ava
lose her life just as she’s starting to live her dream?
“Hey, Jeremy,” I slur. The alcohol was definitely bringing out my
inner bravado.
“Hey Ava.”
He smiles at me and I melt. I
feel like I could slide right off the stool and pool on the floor in a big
alcoholic puddle. “What’s going on?” He says
nodding towards the Patron.
“Nothing much.” I slur again and then use
my fingers to shove my tongue back in my mouth and wipe away any escaping drool
at the same time.
“Want some company?” He grins cheekily and all I can do is stare
at his mouth; hypnotized. I’m pretty
sure my tongue is hanging out but I can’t do anything about it. My reflexes are too slow and besides, Jeremy
is just too delicious.
He chuckles, snapping me out of my reverie,
and slides onto the stool beside me.
As we finish off the bottle of tequila
together, we start to flirt. Harmlessly
at first, but then things start getting heated.
I shift in my seat as he blows in my ear and whispers something that I
can’t make out. It doesn’t matter
though, it’s still hot as hell.
“I need to pee,” I slur. Wobbling as I stand, I make my way slowly
outside, towards the ladies room. Once
there, I use the facilities and try to give myself a pep talk. I need to calm down. Focus.
Sober up a bit so I can enjoy Jeremy and actually remember having this
time with him in the morning. I wash my
hands and walk out, running smack bang into a hard wall of warm solidness.
“Sorry,” I giggle before looking up into
the hypnotizing clear blue eyes of Jeremy.
He grips me around the waist and pushes me back into the wall. His hand travels down my leg, pausing at my
knee to lift up. Automatically, I curl
my limb around his waist. He leans in
and I smell his sweet, warm, alcohol induced breath as it mingles with mine for
a split second before he touches his lips to mine. I moan involuntarily and then gasp as he
grinds his hardness against my softness.
His tongue sweeps in and teases mine in an erotic dance. My hands dive into his soft chocolate brown
hair and I grip and tug causing a deep groan to rise from his throat.
“Get a room, Henley,” a voice calls as they
walk by. I immediately drop my leg and
push him back slightly. We’re both
panting heavily. I try my hardest to
focus. I’m so turned on its
unbelievable. I would have let him take
my virginity right then and there if we hadn’t been interrupted. But, we were.
I take a deep breath and stumble back inside ignoring him calling my
name.
