Considering we’d had the same guys in our class since kindergarten, Rafe’s novelty factor alone would have had the girls tripping over themselves. He was the hottest ticket in town. And he knew it.
Can we stop? Hayley asked.If I see a sheltered spot, we’ll hole up for a while.Can we look for one? I have a blister--We all have blisters, Sam said.We need to keep going, Daniel said. We lost a lot o...
By the midpoint, he’d shot up to my waist, but his muttered curses told me he’d underestimated how good I was--or overestimated how good he was--and it was clear he wasn’t going to catch up in time. S...
But if I tell Daniel…He’ll worry it’s a neurological problem.Neuro…? Right. Brain. You could just say brain, you know.Neurological covers more than just the brain. It--He held up his hand. If there’s...
Brendan helped Rafe into the harness. It took a while, the process punctuated by Rafe’s questions. Then he stood at the base of the rock face, saying, You put your toes here, right? And you grab those...
Blast him, Ronan hissed as they surveyed the empty space behind the roadside shop. He may tell us not to treat him as a prince, but he cannot stop acting like one. He does as he pleases.Only when it's...
Before we left town, Antonio pulled into a strip mall and went in to get subs and salads, leaving Clay and me half naked and bleeding in the car, and Cain unconscious in the trunk. No wonder I was anx...
Barnes in there? he asked, meaning the principal.I shook my head. Haven’t seen him. Ms. Morales was around, though.Yeah, I talked to her. She says I need to talk to Barnes. Late once too often this we...
Am I the only one around here who thinks Maya has a hidden Y chromosome? Hayley said.If she does, she’s hiding it pretty good, Corey said, giving me a lascivious once-over.
After a moment, he shook his head. Quickly and mercifully is best. Clay? Go out and ask her into the alley.Clay looked at Jeremy as if he’d just been told to dance the rumba on a public thoroughfare.I...
I think you have to switch it on, like you do sometimes.He nodded. Another quiet moment. Then, So you can tell when I switch it on?I can.Good. If I ever do it with you, accidentally, stop me, okay?You...
You're crying? he said.No, I- I tore my gaze away. Just dust. From the path. Simon's that way.I tried to pass him, but he stooped, trying to get a loom of my face. When I wouldn't let him, he caught...
You could stay here, I said softly. If he does leave.He rubbed his arms, like he was getting cold. His gaze was down, but his jaw was set in that way I knew well, ready to refuse. Only he didn’t want...
You could have stayed with my mom today, I said as Daniel navigated the potholes and ruts. You’ve got to be hurting.Nope. Don’t feel a thing.Tough guy, I said. No, well-medicated guy. You really think...
You can do this, Sam, Daniel said. You know you can.He kept reassuring her as I worked on the radio. Why wasn’t anyone answering? The pilot had been talking to someone just before he collapsed.Or had...
Yes, I had another wild encounter last night, I said as we walked toward the entrance.Really?That’s not what you wanted to talk to me about?No.Damn.He only laughed and grabbed the door for me. We went...

Yeah yeah, h said. I waited. She was decent. Although technically, she's still naked.You're sch a perv, she turned on to me. Okay, kitty. Lead on. We'll try to keep up.Yeah,good luck with that, Rafe s...
Why does everyone call you Mexican? he asks. My head jerks up. Huh? I’m distracting you with an unrelated and potentially rude question. Aaron called you Mexican. So did they. But you don’t have an ac...
Where the hell did the Pack find you two? At a beach volleyball tournament? Great tan. Love those curls. LeBlanc shook his head. He’s not even as big as I am. He’s what, six foot nothing? Two hundred...
