A kiss. A promise. A mistake.
Hollywood stuntman Ace had life changing decisions to make and time was running out. Bleakly, he saw a future of always being different, that was, until he met British beauty Nina Mae. Her enthusiasm for life was addictive.
Rich, party girl, Nina Mae was in love. But a demand to come home early and a simple mistake, changed the course of both their lives.
Would she ever get back to America? Or were they destined to be two people who met and enjoyed one unbelievable weekend, tied by the repercussions of those hours. Or was she simply his distraction?
Ace watched her all night, his jaw was aching from all the clenching he’d been doing and he’d wanted to smash his cousin's face in when he’d gone over and talked to her, when he’d specifically told him not to.
Now, his brother and cousins had gone on to another bar, reluctantly leaving Ace behind when he told them he 'didn’t need a babysitter'.
All night he’d been remembering the man he used to be. He held the record for getting laid the fastest out of all his cousins, he reflected without humour, remembering the night he’d talked up a woman and was deep inside her up against a wall, in eighteen minutes flat. His cousins had timed him, he remembered. Now he was sitting here, stalking a woman who didn’t know he was here.
Ace didn’t even know why he was torturing himself like this. It wasn’t as though he was going to walk over and talk to her or take her to bed. He rubbed his leg as he continued to watch her dance. God she had moves, he appreciated. He decided he’d get pissed, then go home.
She turned suddenly and looked straight at him.
Shit! Don’t do it, don’t do it. Don’t. F’ing. Do it, Ace thought in a panic. She did it anyway. She walked over to him and he, dumb shit that he was, had nowhere to go.
