An Excerpt
Shelley flicked her hair over one shoulder and gave me a side eye . “ I gave my brother your number so he can watch out for you when you get to LA .” The highway swam before my eyes . “ You did what ?” “ Don ’ t be mad at me . You ’ ve never been to California . I was worried .” She smiled . “ He said he was happy to come get you .”
I knew she meant well , and if it had been anyone else meeting me , I would have been relieved to see a familiar face . The last person I wanted to see was Shawn McDowell .
I had developed a crush on him almost from the first time I saw him when Shelley and I met at the spelling bee in sixth grade . He had been in high school then , and I was just the friend of his pesky baby sister . As soon as he graduated , he moved to California . After a decade or so of small parts and bartending jobs , he had landed a continuing role on a soap opera .
