Excerpt
Flynn
“Oh my gosh! I’m sorry!” A female voice grabs my attention, and I glance toward the entrance doors of the Wynn to find a blur of wild curls running like a banshee. She bumps into several people trying to get outside, and more apologies blurt from her lips as she almost takes out an older gentleman wearing a cowboy hat.
The man is none too pleased, but his annoyance doesn’t stop her. Out onto the pavement of the driveway, she stumbles a bit on her sky-high heels as she continues her fast-track path to who knows where.
She comes to a halting stop in the center of the entrance driveway, in the middle of cars and only a few feet from my bike, and looks around maniacally with her big green eyes.
What is she doing?
Her breaths come out in harsh pants, and she chaotically brushes pieces of her wild mane of curls out of her face.
“You okay?” I find myself asking, and she snaps her eyes toward mine.
She stares at me like I just asked her to solve an advanced calculus problem, and I lift the visor up on my helmet to repeat my question. “You okay?”
She shakes her head and digs her teeth into the meat of her full, red-painted lips. But just as she opens her mouth to respond, a man in a well-fitted suit comes bursting out of the entrance doors, yelling, “Daisy!”
The beautiful but possibly insane woman shuts her eyes on a heavy sigh, and by the sag in her shoulders and frown on her lips, I have a feeling she’s the Daisy he’s calling for.
“Daisy! Honey! Wait up!”
“Fuck,” she mutters, and it doesn’t take a genius to figure out Crazy Daisy wants nothing to do with this guy.
Maybe he’s the reason for her abrupt departure and reckless sprint out of the casino?
This guy could be her boyfriend. Fiancé. Husband. I don’t fucking know what. But whoever he is, she wants distance. That much is apparent.
And even though I’m supposed to meet my brothers at one of the Wynn’s bars in about ten minutes, the urge to help her is too strong to ignore.
It’s a rare thing for a guy like me, to be honest. I don’t meddle in other people’s shit, but the panicked look on her face makes me want to give her the escape she needs.
But before I know it, before I can even offer the help, she takes it for herself.
***5 Stars***
Oh my. This was an experience.
A fun one, but OMG….you know that wide eye’d, shocked, I can’t believe that is happening kinda a facial expression?
Yeah, I had that kinda look on my face a few times.
I also needed a sub zero bath a few times.
So, basically it all evened out in the end….
But Flynn and Daisy. I gotta say, I adored these two...they are both an “experience” but for very different reasons, which, in this case totally worked for me. And I really, REALLY want to tell you why, but I can’t...because you need to experience it all on your own, but they are simply really good people. As for their whole “fake” marriage thing. I don’t think it really was ever fake because that line blurred real quick. They were basically each other's missing puzzle piece and I just really liked how everything worked out for them in the end.
This is a great addition to the Winslow Brothers saga. It was low on angst and even outside drama, which could have happened at one point, but I’m happy it didn’t. I really liked getting to hang out with all the Winslow’s, and I do mean ALL. Lexi is still all kinds of awesome-ness and I cannot wait to see just who will bring Ty to his knees!
