Desperate Chances (Bad Rep #4)
by A. Meredith Walters
Contemporary, Romance
And love can turn into an enemy…
Mitch Abrams, the bassist for the
popular rock band Generation Rejects, has been in love with Gracie Cook for
years. But Gracie, a complicated girl with a lot of baggage, was too blind to
see how she felt about the man who had always stood by her.
Until one night of passion brought them
closer than they had ever been before.
Feeling off balance and out of control,
Gracie does the only thing a girl with self-destructive tendencies can do: end
things with Mitch before they can really begin.
So Mitch moves on. With his band, his
friends, and a new girlfriend.
Yet he can’t seem to forget about the
girl who threw his heart away.
Gracie, who is still struggling to build
a life after crashing to the bottom, finds it hard to forget about her one
night with Mitch. And even as she tries to convince herself it was only sex,
her heart knows differently.
But life is full of chances and
desperate moments. And when Mitch and Gracie are thrown back into each other’s
lives, will they seize at the opportunity to do things right?
Or will the rock star and the less than
ordinary girl crash and burn?
THE BAD REP SERIES
“The fun of living in a small town,” I said. I noticed that she was dressed in tailored black slacks and a cream silk blouse that molded to her breasts. The neck dipped into a modest V. It didn’t reveal anything really. Just the slight hint of cleavage. It certainly wasn’t anything most men would have fixated on. But it was Gracie. And I was Mitch. So I couldn’t help myself from staring at the smooth skin of her chest.
She lifted her hair and draped it over her shoulder, revealing the long, graceful curve of her neck.
She tasted like strawberries and sweat. My tongue glided up the column of her throat and I wanted to devour her.
All of her.
She moaned deep and low in the back of her throat. I lifted her leg and hitched it over my hip. She was just the right angle to go deep. I slid inside of her again. Even though I had just come, I was already hard for her again. She was wet, so fucking wet. There was no resistance as I thrust into her.
“Mitch,” she whispered, her voice raw, her eyes needy. I covered her mouth with mine as I buried myself to the hilt inside of her perfect, wet warmth.
She repeated my name over and over as I began to move my hips. She rose up to meet each push. It was a litany. A prayer. We came together.
Together.
Always together.
“Hello. Earth to Mitch,” Gracie called out, wiggling her fingers in front of my face.
Damn. I had a hard on. This was the problem with looking at her. Blue balls and mortification.
“Sorry,
my mind’s somewhere else.” I blinked a few times and tried to think of dead
kittens and naked grandmas. Anything to get rid of the straining bulge in my
pants.
I wasn't able to read the books prior to this one but I must say, I am highly interested to read them. Once again, Ms. Walters has captivated me with her words and characters. I had a lovely time reading her Reclaiming the Sand series and my expectations and curiosity for her books grew. Simply put, I can't wait to read this one.
Both characters suffered through a rift in their friendship and the budding relationship they seem to have before. They made a lot of mistakes that led to them hurting one another. And yet, with the help of their friends, they were able to find themselves again. The question is, would they form their friendship again or would the feelings they tried to hide, emerge?
actual rating is 4.5
