Excerpt:

“Why are you so pissed?”

Jamie spared her a cold glance over his shoulder. For a fleeting moment, she thought he might deny his anger or talk around it, but instead he muttered, “You know why.”

Sucking in a breath, Sky hesitated. For a long moment, she watched him picking up weights and stacking them (loudly), feeling like she had a wad of cotton in her throat. She wasn’t sure what to say or how to play this; she only knew that she needed Jamie to be her friend again—and so much more than that—and she wasn’t going to insult his intelligence by playing dumb.

“Look, I didn’t even want to go on that date,” she told him, still talking to his back. “It was a last-minute favor to Alison—she begged me!” Wordlessly, Jamie stacked two more weights, then scooped up a dumbbell.

Frustrated, Sky said, “Look, she begged me as a personal favor to go out with him.”

With his back still to her, he said, “Yeah, did she beg you to bring the guy back home with you, too?”

Sky winced at that. “The date didn’t mean anything, Jamie.”

God, he was being difficult. Was he going to make her say it first? Didn’t he know how scary that was?

Suddenly he whipped his head around, as if a thought had just occurred to him. “Wait—is he downstairs right now? Waiting for you?”

“No!” Sky nearly yelped. “No, he’s not there. He left.”

“Ah,” Jamie said with a nod. “So that’s why you’re here. Let me guess: you want my opinion now.”

“No,” Sky began, shaking her head, “that’s not—”

“Well,” Jamie declared, “my opinion is that this is bullshit.”

Stunned, Sky just blinked at him for a second. “Exactly which part?” she asked, confused.

“This whole thing with you and me,” he stated bluntly. “And I’m done with it.”

For a terrifying second, Sky panicked. How was he “done” with it? With her? “What does that mean?” she said, trying to keep her voice from betraying what a hot mess of emotions she was right now.

Jamie started walking toward her, his eyes burning with anger. “It means: I don’t want to be your friend and I don’t want to hear about these guys anymore.”

“That’s what I’m trying to—”

“What do you even need my input for anyway?” Jamie continued brusquely, and Sky’s breath hitched in her throat. She’d never seen him this angry (and was it wrong that it was turning her on?) “You’re a grown woman,” he practically barked at her, stopping his processional about five feet away from her. “You go be with whoever you want to be with.”

Nodding, Sky felt her adrenaline rise. “Fine, I will. In fact, that’s exactly what I’m going to do,” she promised, walking closer to him. If he was missing her meaning, he certainly wouldn’t be missing it for long...
