He was my high school crushâthe guy who had no clue I existed. Sure, we shared a fleeting moment in the country club closet, but he thought I was someone else. After that night, I went to college, moved to Boston to find myself, and pushed him out of my thoughts.
It workedâuntil he saw me performing at a local community theater. My character is bold, daring, and vivaciousâeverything Iâm notâwhich makes him believe, again, that Iâm someone else.
He likes what he sees, and while a hot fling with an NHL star isnât on my bingo card, sometimes the numbers line up vertically, or horizontallyâor, in my case, both.
Itâs only when I find myself in his armsâand his bedâthat I begin to discover who I really am and what I want. The problem? He has no idea Iâm the nerdy girl from high school he never noticed.
But one thing I do know, after spending time with him and learning his fears and hopes, is that heâs everything Iâve ever wantedâand Iâm everything that can destroy him.
