Exert:
Moments later, Mrs. Coach calls me inside to help carry out the remainder of the food when there’s a knock at the door. It’s so soft I’m almost sure I imagined it. "Grayson honey, please grab the door," Mrs. Coach calls from the kitchen. I walk to the door but when I open it, I’m completely unprepared for what’s in front of me. Or rather who is in front of me.

Huntley is wearing a coral sundress with matching pumps. The color accentuates her sun-kissed skin, making it look like she’s glowing.

Her hair is curled and left loose, hanging down past her shoulders. My eyes stop at her lips, pink and glossy. I stand there like an idiot and shamelessly drink her curves in.

She clears her throat and for a brief second I’m lost in the depth of those sapphire-colored irises. I have never seen stormy blue eyes until now. They tell a story, about what I’m not sure, but it’s there, in those stormy depths and I want to find out what it is.

"Hi," she whispers. Her musical voice moves through my body and jolts me from my daze.

"What are you doing here?" The words are out of my mouth before I realize what I’m saying. Hurt flashes across her face at the sound of my accusatory tone and I want to kick myself in the nuts for being such an ass. It just goes to show what being around this gorgeous girl does to me.

"This is my family," she states matter-of-factly, "I was invited."

Of course she was invited. Coach Morgan is her uncle after all.

Thank you Captain Obvious…

Dumbass…
"Sorry, of course, come in," I barely choke the words out and gesture for her to come in. I catch a trace of her perfume and almost lose my mind. God, I love strawberries and vanilla. She giggles and I realize I said that out loud.

Are you fucking kidding me? Could this get any worse?
Huntley pauses in front of me and smiles. It’s enough to steal the air right out of my lungs.

"Strawberries and vanilla are my favorite too," she whispers. She stretches onto the balls of her feet to place a feather-light peck on my cheek. I can feel the heat surface in my cheeks and it’s the first time ever that a girl makes me blush.

Review:
I really enjoyed this book. This books is about hurt, pain, love and taking chances.  Huntley was your average girl till all the things she is hiding start coming out. Grayson comes off as the typical jock with not a care in the world. He has things hidden too. They have a instant attraction for each other. In the end taking chances pays off...
