In every life there is always that...one.
Twenty-one
year old Laura Sedgwick is a rebel without a cause. Her only plans
for life are to make no plans. She revels in her fascination of the
unexpected as she navigates her way through mid -1990’s Dallas
nightlife. One very bad night brings her face to face with the one
man likely to change her mind about…well...everything.
Twenty-three
year old Seth Whitaker has every intention of seeing through with his
well mapped out life. He is a hard working over-achiever that has no
intentions of slowing his pace for anyone. With a fierce
determination to not let life pass him by without taking a huge bite,
he finds himself inexplicably drawn to the one distraction that could
keep him from his best laid plans. Little did he know his
determination to keep his life on track would be the very thing to
trigger the events that change the course of both their lives.
In this
life she had only done one thing right...

All I was feeling was showing in the
bathroom mirror on my reddened face. I was having a hard time
enjoying it, instead of being terrified. I cupped some water from the
faucet and swallowed, willing myself to get it together. I walked
into the hall of the long corridor that led back to the rooftop door
and found Seth waiting for me, arms crossed over his chest, casually
leaning against the wall. I stood on the opposite wall, placing my
hands behind my back. I felt a drop of water drip from my bottom lip
onto my chest and slide into the V of my dress. I saw his eyes follow
it with envy as he spokes his first words to me.
“You are all I think about, and I
come here and you look…like this,” he breathed the words to me
and I felt them on every inch of my body. I moved to go to him and he
made a small gesture that kept me where I was. He still wanted to
play and I was game.
“What do you think about?”
“Your laugh, the way your voice is
raspy in the morning when you wake up, the arch of your perfect feet,
the way your hair falls over your face when you’re on top of me,
the way this feels right now and every time I’m with you.”
I pulled my leg through the thigh high
slit in my dress propping my heel on the wall behind me and smiled.
He cursed as he came toward me in a blur. He stopped himself inches
away, placing both hands on the side of my face against the wall.
“Temptress,” he whispered into my
ear.
