BE WITH ME Synopsis:
From the author of the #1 New York
Times bestseller Wait for You
Do Teresa and Jase have a real shot at getting together
or will life get in the way?
Teresa Hamilton is having a rough year—she's in love with
her big brother's best friend, but he hasn't spoken to her since they shared a
truly amazing, mind-blowing, life-changing kiss. Then she got out of a terrible
relationship. Now an injury is threatening to end her dance career for good.
It's time for plan B: college. And maybe she'll have a chance to convince Jase
that what they have together is real.
Jase Winstead has a huge secret that he's not telling anyone—especially
not his best friend's incredibly beautiful sister. Even though he and Teresa
shared the hottest kiss of his life, he knows that his responsibilities must
take priority. He certainly doesn't have time for a relationship. But it
doesn't help that all he can think about is kissing the one girl who could ruin
everything for him.
As they're thrown together more and more, Jase and Teresa
can't keep denying their feelings for each other. But a familiar danger looms
and tragedy strikes. As the campus recovers, the star-crossed couple must
decide what they're willing to risk to be together and what they're willing to
lose if they're not. . . .
EXCERPT:
“You got a visitor, Tess.” He rested his chin atop my head,
which caused my pulse to try
to outrun my heart. “Two of them to be exact.”
“Okay.”
There was a pause. “Are your eyes closed?”
“No.”
His chin slid off my head and then his chest rumbled as he
laughed. “Your eyes are
closed.” He laughed again. “Open them up.”
Cursing under my breath, I pried one eye open and then
jerked against him. His arm
tightened. “Oh wow …”
The black-and-white horse was the closest, standing mere
feet away from me. The brown
one wasn’t too far, shaking its head and making soft snorts.
My eyes were wide as they bounced
between the two creatures. “They’re not carnivorous, right?
Because at their size, they could eat
me.”
Jase laughed deeply as his hand shifted up, resting in the
center of my stomach, just
below my breasts. “Horses do not eat people, you little
idiot.”
I started, eyes narrowing. “There’s always a first.”
The lips pulled back on the black-and-white horse as if it
was smirking at me.
“This one right here? Mr. Friendly? Jack calls him Bubba
One,” he said in a quiet,
calming voice. But air hitched in my throat when his thumb
moved in a slow circle over the thin
material of my tank top, hitting against the wire in my bra.
“And the brown one is Bubba Two.”
Mouth dry, I wetted my lips. “That’s good for remembering
names.”
He chuckled as his pinkie and forefinger started to move up
and down, reaching my belly
button and then sliding back up. It was almost as if he was
unaware of what he was doing, or the
electrifying response the tiny motions were dragging out of
me. “I think so too, but his real name
is Lightning.”
Said horse shook his head, tossing the shaggy mane.
“Lightning seems to be a more suitable name,” I admitted,
relaxing as the seconds
passed. Maybe that was his intention. Distract me with the
soft, almost innocent touches. It was
working. “What about Bubba Two?
“Ah, the one who is staring at the pail like it’s the holy
mecca of grain?” His cheek
grazed mine as I laughed. “That’s Thunder. And we’re going
to feed them. Together.”
The friction his fingers created with my shirt sent tiny
shivers up and down my back.
“With our hands?”
His answering laugh tipped the corners of my lips up. “Yes.
With our hands.”
“After checking out the choppers on them, I’m not so sure
about that.”
“You’ll be okay.” He slid his hand off my stomach and
wrapped it around my wrist.
Slowly, he lifted my hand out in front of me. “Hold still.”
My heart lurched. “Jase—”
Lightning trotted forward and pressed his wet nose against
my hand. I cringed, waiting
for him to eat my poor fingers. The horse didn’t. Nope. It
nudged my hand as it whinnied softly.
He guided my hand up over Lightning’s jaw, all the way to
the pointy, twitchy ears.
“See?” he murmured. “That’s not too bad, is it?”
I shook my head as my fingers curled along the soft coat.
Lightning seemed to anticipate
the direction of the petting, pressing his long head against
my hand as my fingers tangled in his
mane. It wasn’t bad at all.
Jase shifted behind me, and in an instant all thoughts of
the horses evaporated. His hips
lined up against my backside, and I bit down on my lower lip
as I focused on the white splotch
covering Lightning’s muzzle.
I could feel him—feel Jase. And there was absolutely no
doubt in my mind that he was
affected by how close we were standing. That knowledge and
the hard length of him left me
dizzy, just like it had done that Saturday night. An all too
warm flush spread down my neck. In
the back of my head, I was rationalizing his physical
reaction. He was a guy. Our bodies were pressed
together. If a wind blew on a guy’s private area, they got
hard. So I should just ignore it,
but my body was so not on board with my head. My body was
operating on a different playing
field. An ache centered low in my stomach. A sharp and sweet
yearning raced through my veins.
“Not so scary, right?” His voice was deeper, richer.
“They’re like dogs. Well, like a dog
that can carry around two hundred pounds, if not more.” Hand
sliding off mine, he stepped back,
and the sudden emptiness of his body was like a cold shock.
“Trust me.”
Then he smacked my ass.
