Walking softly across the cool tile, I re-enter my bedroom and finally pick up ‘Phoebe’s’ phone and decide Sebastian’s waited long enough for my reply. Halsey’s, Young God, is playing softly in my bathroom as I step into the large bathtub and sink down into it.

I let out a sigh of pleasure as I feel my muscles immediately relax as the warm water sooths every inch of me. Resting my head against the rolled up towel behind my head I stare up at my phone and finally type a response back to Sebastian.

Hey! Sorry for not replying right away. It’s been a crazy day. I’m finally home and soaking in a much needed bubble bath trying to unwind…to answer your question, I may have thought about our date once or twice today. ;)

Excitement buzzes in the pit of my stomach as I watch the grey bubble appear on the screen as Sebastian types a reply back.

Mmm…a bubble bath, huh? Sorry in advance for the overly naughty images filling my head at the moment. That’s okay. I was finishing up my run anyways. I texted you when I still had a mile to go, but I couldn’t stop thinking about you…

I stare down at my screen and bite my lip as I contemplate how I should respond to that. I’m suddenly bombarded with naughty thoughts of his body glistening with sweat and flushed from his run.

Not one to be shy, I decide to snap a picture of myself soaking in the tub. I only show my neck down, which my neck and my face are flushed bright red from the heat and the dirty thoughts dancing around inside of my head.

This man is hands down one of the sexiest to ever contact me on Candy Hearts—and that’s saying a lot seeing as I’ve slept with some of the most sought after actors and athletes while I lived in the Big Apple.

There’s just something about that smile and those eyes along with the rugged look of masculinity that has my thighs clamping tightly together in anticipation of finally meeting him in person Friday.

I hit send and then type a quick response,

What kind of naughty thoughts are filling that too-handsome-for-your-own-good-head of yours?

I let out a slight gasp of surprise as a photo pops up on my screen along with a response.

Since we seem to be on a ‘show not tell’ theme tonight, I’ll show you what my thoughts about you and that bath are doing to me. BTW glad to know you think I’m handsome ;) because I think you’re sexy as hell, Phoebe.

A picture of his bare chest, still damp with sweat, speckled with a light patch of hair across his chest and then trailing a path down leading to the holy grail of all penises pressing angrily against the restraint of the red Nike basketball shorts that are keeping it trapped inside. I can make out the shape of a wide tip making desire pool between my thighs as I think about how it’d feel deep inside of me as I rotate my hips on top of it.

I’m normally turned off by crude photos in text messages from Johns, but there’s something erotic about seeing Sebastian’s hand squeezing his length through his shorts.

REVIEW

I was so excited to read this novella. It promised to be a scorching, salacious read, and it truly lived up to its title. 

I loved getting to know the characters and I cannot wait to find out more about them as this serial continues. Haylee obviously has some demons chasing her and the fact that she had to take on a different persona after some life altering event has left me intrigued to find out just what happened in her past. Nate on the other hand seems to have it all together and I have to wonder what is going to happen to this star quarterback's promising career should this scandal blow wide open.

What I really enjoyed about this story was the game that both characters played with each other, whether they knew it or not. The constant mystery of whether they knew who the other really was, and whether or not they really cared for the consequences of their actions.Walking the line between right and wrong, knowing full well that it could lead to very bad things for both of them. I have to applaud Haylee for her bravado and the fact that she didn't turn tail and run once she knew the truth. 

This book was exciting, and just when it got to the good part, just when the story really started to heat up *BANG* cliffhanger of note. I wasn't sure if I wanted to scream, swear of cry....I may have done all of those things for a minute before pulling myself together. A good start to this series. I can't wait for more.
