Fighting Temptation by Jamie Garrett

Austin: I’ve always been a loner.
Some women say they like my dark, brooding looks. Their words not mine.
But when they realise I’d rather be left alone ninety-nine percent of the time?
They disappear fast.
Only one woman has every held my interest enough for me to want to break that habit.
In fact, I want to spend all my time with her. Every second of my life.
She’s amazing. Gorgeous. Incredible.
One of these days I might even have the balls to tell her how I feel.

Brooke: I make sure my chair at the weekly meeting is always next to his. We’ve been making small talk for weeks.
Somehow, I always know the second he enters the room.
I can feel him.
He has an intensity that takes my breath away. It’s like he can see into my soul.
But I can’t take it any further.
How can I admit to him that sometimes, the thought of him is the only thing that keeps me sane. Hell, sometimes the only thing that keeps me sober.
Plus, I know Kyle is still watching me. Sneaking around somewhere, calling me all the time.
I can’t afford to set him off.
For all our sakes.
