Rhoades
Loneliness. The pain doesnтАЩt simply go away with time. ItтАЩs been years, and they tell me I need to move on. But I canтАЩt.
Blame and regret are my constant companions. Until I see him in the spotlight and everything changes. Night after night, I watch him dance. Thinking about him.
What heтАЩd feel like.
What heтАЩd taste like.
And now that I know, I want him even more.
And maybe...just maybe, he might want me too.
But not yet.
Not before he knows heтАЩs more than a pretty face. Not before he knows what he means to me. I need him by my side.
The two of us.
Together.
Austin
Why canтАЩt I forget him? His hands touching me. His mouth on mine. Kissing me. Rendering me mindless.
Breathless.
Every night I lay awake burning for him. Dreaming. Thinking. Needing him.
NoтАФI donтАЩt. I donтАЩt need anyone.
I lie.
I want him.
I want more. I am more. HeтАЩs seen that, and now here I stand with my dream on the horizon. All I need to do is take that first step. Trust him.
Trust myself.
Rhoades begins immediately where Austin, Book one, left off
