Synopsis:
“She is magnetic to
me. Every emotion she feels pulls me that much closer to her charm and
energy. For reasons unbeknownst to me, I want her to know what she means
to me.” ~Jake Evans
For Jake Evans, life was as it should be. No responsibilities. He was the master at embracing his reckless lifestyle whenever it presented itself. Surviving on his ability to expertly hustle, fight and womanize, Jake could do it all; lived it all.
Raised in a rundown city, filled with crime and drugs, he had survived the death of an abusive mother and a life with an absent father while only having his brothers to depend on. His lifestyle became fast and Jake had lived it the only way he knew how, until the day he met Delilah.
Delilah St. James was the epitome of flawless. Brought up in an affluent southern household, Delilah’s life had been planned from the moment she was born. She was raised to be the perfect socialite and daughter, and groomed to be the ideal wife. When a school internship moved her to Sulfur Heights for the summer, Delilah collided with the bitter reality of life outside her comfortable gated community when Jake Evans upset her perfect world.
Over the next two years, Jake and Delilah became best friends, embracing a friendship neither one was prepared to have, although they soon found it to be a relationship that neither one of them were willing to sacrifice.
A tragic turn of events brings Jake and Delilah together once again. Only this time, the feelings are different. Lines within their friendship are blurred. Everything they vowed never to do, becomes the very thing they cannot deny. Will Jake and Delilah’s relationship withstand the changes surrounding them? Or will the emotions sever the two year friendship they’d fought so hard to keep?

Excerpt:
“Jake, I’m
really nervous now. I’m not sure I can—”
“Shut up. Your
damn mouth got us into this mess, now you’re going to get us out,” I snap back,
purposely pissing her off so she will focus on anything other than what she’s
actually about to do.
“Don’t tell me
to shut up!” Her eyes are set to kill as glares fly in my direction. Good, now
she’s pissed. This is the right frame of mind that will make the slim chance of
winning successful.
“Don’t do
anything or say anything, got it? Listen to exactly what I’m saying and do
exactly what I say when I say it! Do you understand?” I hold her chin, turning
her head toward me and say, “You’ve got to trust me.”
