CHAPTER SIXTEEN

Savannah

It’s my first night with my own place in Boston, and I already have a gorgeous man in my apartment looking like he wants to spend the night. Everywhere his gaze caresses me, my body warms. I don’t know what to do about my nipples waving at him like two take-me-now beacons, so I hug my legs to my front.

Having sex is one of my goals, but the intensity of my attraction to Brice scares me. It feels dangerously impulsive. I cling to the conversation I had with Jana. If sex was all I wanted, I would have had it already. What I want is a better life for myself. Jumping into bed with the first beautiful man who pays attention to me feels like a recipe for failure.

“You really have issues.” What do they call laying your crazy at someone else’s door? Transference? Whatever, I need to be angry with him, or I’m going to be on my knees begging him to initiate me.

But then what? Where would we go from there? I’m not saying I may never have a one-night stand . . . but my legs are still hairy for God’s sake. It’s too early in my transformation to think I can handle someone like Brice.

And how would I look Jana in the eye? I told her I’d follow her plan. I paid her all that money. I don’t care how amazing his lips might feel on my skin.

They’d catch on stubble. Remember that.

“I have issues?” The look on his face is shocked—like I’m the first to accuse him of not being perfect. It bolsters my conviction.

“You love to orchestrate things. Make them turn out the way you want.”

“That’s not so much an issue as a talent.”

His grin is all sex, and heat surges through me. I bet he knows exactly what he’s doing. How many women have fallen for that look? Have felt the same urges that are filling me and have given in to them? His grin says too many.

Time to address the elephant in the room. “I’ve spent the last few hours thinking about you.” That didn’t come out the way I meant it to.

“Really?” His eyebrows arch, and he looks pretty pleased with himself.

I rush to add, “And Lance, Murray, Jay, and Jimmy.”

That removes some of the cockiness from him.

I continue, “I’m surrounding myself with the wrong men. Scaring off anyone who might actually make me happy. I need to stop hiding from life by continuing to open the door to you guys.” I shrug. “Jana says this is a journey I need to take on my own, and I think she’s right.”

“Jana?” He huffs. “I’ve looked into this woman. She didn’t exist five years ago. She’s a liar, a scammer. Possibly worse.”

I shake my head. It makes sense that Jana would be working under an assumed name. The very nature of her business is covert. “I’m sorry you have no faith in me.”

He steps closer. “It’s not you I have no faith in.
