A Kiss Beneath the Stars

I'd never needed a week away with my brothers so badly until I'd broken up with my girlfriend. The female persuasion was the farthest thing from my mind... that was until I lock eyes with the stunning brunette sitting on the other side of the bar.

It didn't take me long to figure out that she was there alone, even though every time she'd make eye contact with me, she'd glance over her shoulder like she was waiting for someone.

My brothers and I had decided to move the party from the bar to my hotel room. Things got loud, and before I knew it she was standing on the other side of my door. Only she wasn't here to join the party, instead she was raging with anger at the fact we'd kept her up half the night.

As she walked away from me, pulling her t-shirt down to cover herself it was then I decided I was determined to show this uptight, but gorgeous woman how to have a little fun. As vacation ends, we agree to keep seeing one another, but soon I find her pushing me away. Scars from her past have her terrified of the future, and I fear our love will be over before it even begins. I just need to figure out how to convince her that we are worth fighting for.
