“Talking is not what you want to do,” Jess scoffs.

No lies detected.

I’m going to be crossing boundaries with her I never have before.I just hope my conscience and willpower stay on the same team.

“Let’s go find out, shall we?”










CHAPTER ELEVEN

JESSIE

––––––––

Iran from Frank Bonitoand into Liam’s arms only to be hurt in a different way.I know he was going to reject me, as he always does, but for some reason I need him more than ever.

Let’s go find out, shall we?

What does that mean?

I’m way too drunk to work it out and feel like maybe he’s up to something.Getting me away from these hot guys most likely.

Not that any of them are anywhere near as handsome as Liam.

I just wanted to drink the night away.Being with Savannah today was a stark reminder that if I want another job in this industry, people are going to want references.She was interested inHigh Topsand knew who Frank was.

It made me sick.

I might have to give up my dreams because he’s a sick pervert.

I didn’t want to go home and face Liam and his constant rejection.Here, these California men love my accent and are interested in me as awoman.

Don’t you feel anything?

No.

Yet he stands before me now, telling me he wants to take me home, with desire in his eyes.The worst part is, I’m drunk enough to believe it.Drunk enough towantto believe it.
