Emme Ford loves her job as a bar promoter. She runs in the same circles as musicians and socialites, getting paid to party with them. She’s content with life just the way it is, and she has no interest in marriage, kids, or growing up. But what happens when the party’s over?

Axel Jones wants to marry Emme, but she denied his proposal. They both pretend it didn’t affect their relationship, but it did. A wedge divides them, and now they’re stuck in a stalemate. What do you do when one person wants more and the other doesn’t?

EXCERPT

“I just wanted to come here to talk.” He finally looks up at me and tugs on his hair again before running a hand over his beard. “I’m frustrated, Emme.”

“I know you are,” I say softly. “But I’ve made it clear what I need.”

“Yes, you have, but what about what I need?”

He’s right, and I know that. He’s got needs that are different from mine, and his aren’t being met in this relationship.

I don’t answer, because I don’t actually have an answer for that.

“We’re stuck, Ems. We’re at an impasse. A stalemate. What do you do when only one person wants more?”

“You wait.” My voice comes out with more vehemence than I intend, and I suppose that’s maybe the first real sign of emotion Axel’s heard from me in a while.

“What if I don’t want to wait?”

I glance away from him, because something deep in my heart knew where this was leading. “Then we have some decisions to make, I guess.” I say it softly because it’s not what I want. I don’t want to end things with Axel.

“I think we do.” His voice is quiet, too.

EXCERPT

“I know you desperately need to clean this office, but I don’t think drunk Emme is the best maid for you.” I giggle as he flips on the light then kicks the door shut behind him.

His eyes land on me, and it’s only when I feel their searing burn wherever they land on my body that I realize the real reason he brought me back here. “We didn’t come back here to clean.”

I want to sass him, but my words die on my tongue as his gaze heats me all over. “Oh?” I say instead of something more articulate. “Then why are we here?”

He takes a step toward me, and my heart races. This man still gives me butterflies even though we’ve been together for six months. Sometimes the haze of tequila gives those butterflies wings, and right now they’re flying around my stomach like they’re trying to find their way out.

“I think you know.” He steps closer to me, reaches out his arm, and runs a knuckle from my cheek to my jaw.

I look up at him.

“God, Emme, when you look at me like that…and that tequila you drank…a man can’t even form a goddamn sentence.”

“What are you going to do to me?” I whisper.

His lips lift into a smile, but his beard hides it. He leans in close to me, so close I can smell him.

His lips close in toward my ear. “I’m going to fuck you on my desk.”

“Just on your desk?”

“Maybe against the door, too.”

“What makes you so sure of that?”

He leans back and grins at me. “You had tequila tonight.”

I nod in confirmation. “I did. A lot.”

“You know I love it when you drink tequila.”

“Remind me why again?”

“Panty. Dropping. Juice.” He presses kisses to my skin between each word, trailing from my ear toward my mouth, and then his mouth covers mine and there’s no more talking.
