For the next four years they spent almost every waking hour together. But just as Summer inevitably turns to Fall, all good things must end. As Lacey’s family sells their house and leaves the Hamptons, Lacey and Luke vow to stay in touch. But a dramatic meeting when they are teens leaves their friendship in tatters and Lacey’s heart broken. Fast forward seven years, and 22-year-old Lacey returns to the Hamptons. During a night out partying, who does she run into? Luke Drake. The only thing is Luke doesn’t recognize her. At first, Lacey thinks it’s hilarious--a case of karma finally catching up with the golden boy--but then she realizes that all the feelings she’s buried for so long aren’t going to stay buried . . . especially when she and Luke are thrown together by internships at Drake-Mason Pharma. Luke Drake wants to be anywhere but the Hamptons, and he certainly doesn’t want to be interning at his dad’s company. Luke’s got a secret plan: make enough money to break away from his controlling father and strike out on his own. Then one night he sees a girl at a club and after an incredible night together, he discovers that the mystery girl is his childhood friend: Lacey Mason. He knows what he did to her when they were teenagers was wrong and is determined to spend the summer showing Lacey that he’s changed...and that they belong together. However, family secrets, including the one that ended their friendship in the first place, may prove to be too much and Lacey may not be willing to let Luke break the friendzone.

Download or read book Intimates written by David Huddle and published by David R. Godine Publisher. This book was released on 1993 with total page 248 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this daring, and often dazzling, collection of stories, David Huddle gently scrutinizes the marvelous complexities (and endless permutations) of male-female encounters. In doing so, he again confirms his place among those few writers who can unfailingly capture, with a wry eye and unvarnished prose, both the most monumental and the most minute meetings between the sexes, those vertiginous moments that can change the directions of our lives (and can also pass unnoticed until many years after the event). Here is thirteen-year-old Angela on a trip to Scotland, experiencing the first ache of adolescence while falling in love with a black male model. And here is a professor caught in his study with a female student stretched out on his desk - nude. Huddle is always measuring that fine tension between fidelity and infidelity, that line between probity and license. He doesn't sit as a judge, but records these moments with both art and grace in a sweet and subtle prose that is guileless and wholly believable. Whether his subject is an aerobics instructor bent on revenge, or a chance, and sexually intimate, encounter on an airplane, David Huddle is a writer who is always in complete control, always managing to expose new facets in the ageless and fascinating terrain of male-female topography.
Download or read book Mermaid's Heart written by Stacy Claflin and published by Stacy Claflin. This book was released on with total page 208 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the second part of the Dark Sea Academy trilogy, and if you haven’t read Mermaid’s Song, you’ll want to do that first. The following description contains spoilers for the first book. What’s the point of being a princess if the whole kingdom hates you? Being a royal should make my life easier, but it only compounds my problems. When my father, the new King of Valora, succeeded the beloved King Tiberius, many of his subjects believed he killed my uncle just to gain the throne. His new policies only make the people hate him more. Just my luck, they transfer their loathing onto me. Even my best friend and my boyfriend aren’t enough of a buffer, and I’m continually fending off verbal, and sometimes physical, attacks. That’s when my powers start growing… When no one at the academy can—or will—help me learn about my new abilities, I begin to research them on my own. Modern answers seem to be entwined with a terrifying ancient legend. If the lore is true, my destiny is far more tragic than my present problems. And I don’t know if I can change it. Or if I should even try.
