“Kiss me.”

He brings his mouth to mine and takes it in a hard, deep kiss. When he releases my lips, he looks me in the eye.

“I love you, Brady.”

“I love you, too, Bran.”

I met a guy in a Christmas-themed town and fell completely in love with him. How cliche is that?

The End

Preview of

Taeli

Seventeen Years Ago

Istart snatching my clothes from the closet, flinging them inside the suitcase on my bed, when a soft knock sounds on my bedroom door.

“Taeli, sweetheart, can I come in?” Daddy asks.

I swipe at the tears on my cheeks and walk over to unlock and open the door.

His eyes land on the suitcase, and he sighs.

“You’re really leaving?” he asks.

I nod. “Damon is on his way to pick me up. We’re flying to Chicago in the morning.”

“I wish you’d wait until the end of the summer.”

“Why? So Mom can spend the next thirty days telling me what a disappointment I am?”

“She didn’t mean any of that. She’s just angry,” he says.

“It sure sounded like she meant it. I’m sorry I’m not the perfect daughter, but this is my life.”

“Your mother doesn’t want to see you throw away the opportunities you’ve been given or see your talents go to waste. We’re not saying to break up with the boy. We’re just asking you to wait. Give it another year and see how you feel then.”

“I don’t want to wait a year. He was accepted into Northwestern, and I’m going with him.”

“Are you sure this is what you want?” he asks.

“I love him, Daddy.”

He sits down on the foot of my bed and pats the spot beside him.

I sit and lay my head on his shoulder.

“Love, huh? I know better than to argue with a woman in love. I guess that settles it.”

“It does for me. He makes me happy. Why can’t Mom be happy for me?”

“You and your mother are more alike than you realize, kiddo. You’re both lead by your heart. That’s why you two butt heads so often.”

“Alike? More like complete opposites,” I disagree.

He chuckles.
