EXCERPT
“Yeah. That’s one way to
put it. Is there something else you called for besides trying to stick your
nose in where it doesn’t belong?”
I open my mouth and then
shut it, unsure how calling him because I just needed to hear his voice has
devolved so quickly into this. Into me scrambling for words I can’t find to fix
shit that doesn’t need fixing.
Because I don’t want this.
Don’t want him.
“Well then, if you want to
actually talk instead of pull this ridiculous bullshit, I’m here for you…but
Had…? Whatever this is here…this passive aggressive crap? I don’t do too well
with that. We had our one night. You made it quite clear you didn’t want anything
more than that so you don’t get to call me up and question what I might or
might not be doing with anybody else. You want no strings? Then cut the
ties…but frankly I don’t think you know what the fuck you want so until you
figure your shit out, I think it’s best that we say good night before we make a
bad situation even worse.”
“Wait!” Desperation rings in my voice in the
single word. And I hate myself for sounding like this but I’m so lonely, so
scared and just want the comfort I know he can bring me right now.
I wait for the sound of the
dial tone to assault my ears. Wait for the incessant beep that reaffirms why I
have barbed wire wrapped around my heart – painful but necessary. But there is
nothing for a few moments until I hear the phone scrape against the stubble on
his face.
And I wait…my throat
burning with the tears I want to shed but am so sick of. The ones that no
longer bring me comfort.
“I’m here, Haddie. I’m not
going anywhere, okay?” The timbre of his voice carries his concern and sympathy
to me through the line.
The incoherent sound I make
is all I can offer in thank you to him for not hanging up on me. For not giving
up on me.

SYNOPSIS
ONE
NIGHT. THAT'S ALL IT WAS SUPPOSED TO BE.
Reeling
from the sudden loss of her sister, Haddie Montgomery has sworn off
relationships. All she wanted from Beckett Daniels was a sexy distraction to
help her escape her pain for just a little while....There weren’t supposed to
be any strings attached—so why can’t she shake the memory of that unforgettable
night from her thoughts? Or the taste of his kiss from her lips?
No matter
how hard Haddie tries to forget about him, Becks relentlessly tries to prove
that she should start living for today. But she is determined to avoid romantic
commitment, and she can always use her ex-boyfriend’s reappearance to help
snuff out the slow burn within her that Becks has sparked....
Or will
fate force her to realize that this kind of connection doesn’t come along very
often and a chance at love is worth the risk?

ABOUT THE AUTHOR
New York Times and USA
Today Bestselling author K. Bromberg is that reserved woman sitting in the
corner who has you all fooled about the wild child inside of her—the one she
lets out every time her fingertips touch the computer keyboard.
K. lives in Southern
California with her husband and three children. When she needs a break from the
daily chaos of her life, you can most likely find her on the treadmill or with
Kindle in hand, devouring the pages of a good, saucy book.
On a whim, K. Bromberg
decided to try her hand at this writing thing. Her debut novels, Driven,
Fueled, and Crashed of The Driven Trilogy were well received and went on to
become multi-platform bestsellers as well as landing on the New York Times and
USA Today lists. Her other works include a short story, UnRaveled, and a
companion piece to The Driven Trilogy titled Raced. She is currently working on
three stand alone Driven novels, Slow Burn, Sweet Ache, and Hard Beat. She also
plans to release a novel addressing the 10 year gap at the ending of Crashed in
late fall 2015
