Deep Surrendering (Episode 1)
by Chelsea M. Cameron
March 20, 2014
She's
all about rules. He lives by none but his own. When these two meet, the results
could be disastrous.
When
Marisol Everly’s friend Rory sets her up with Fin Herald, Marisol doesn't
expect that it will amount to anything, but that was before she saw Fin's
searing blue eyes and mischievous smile. Not to mention, he seems absolutely
fascinated by her mundane life. He's everything that a girl could want, but
there's something else that ripples under the surface of his flirty
behavior. Something darker. Something that fascinates Marisol, but scares her
at the same time. Is she willing to risk falling into an abyss she might not
get out of?
“So
what are you going to do about it?” He pulled me closer as we barreled through
the streets.
“I’m
going to pay attention to the things that matter. Like this.” His hand went
under my chin and pulled my face up. “I’m going to pay attention to you, and the
way the sun catches the darker streaks in your hair, the pink in your cheeks
and your beautiful eyes. That’s what I’m going to pay attention to right here,
right now.”
I
nearly melted off my seat.
“But
you don’t even know me,” I said. This was too much, too fast. Even though I’d
been hearing about him from Rory, I still didn’t really know what mattered. The
important things. Life was all about the little details.
Like
if he was a morning person, what his favorite breakfast cereal was, what song
did he always get stuck in his head, how was his relationship with his mother.
He
shrugged one shoulder and pulled my face closer.
“I
know that right now I’m paying very close attention to your lips and I’d like
to pay even closer attention to them…” I turned my head at the last moment, so
he missed and got my cheek.
“I’m
sorry,” I said, hoping he wouldn’t hate me. “I have a no kiss on the first date
rule.” It sounded even worse out loud. I sounded like some sort of
stick-up-her-ass prude.
“No
kiss on the first date?” Fin said, turning his head to the side as if he was
fascinated by me.
“Is
that a problem?” God, I hoped not.
He
grinned at me and flicked my hair over my shoulder.
“Not
at all.”
