“Hi. I’m…Stella.” It took me a minute, but I wasn’t that star struck that I forgot my name. Just my manners. I cracked my gum again, unable to blink. The man I had watched for hours upon hours onscreen was standing before me.  “The trainer,” I managed to blurt out as Luke’s intense chocolate eyes stared back at me.

Fit for Love

“Ding. Ding Ding.” Daniel rang the bell, reaching the top of the rock wall before me. I slipped and remained dangling from my harness. I repelled down, angry at myself for missing the last rock. Now I’d have to go back to Luke’s knowing he preferred a super skinny actress to my muscle bound frame


“You were so close,” Daniel said when he met me at the bottom. “You’ve come such a long way. A couple months ago there was no way you could climb that wall.” I nodded. “You can do hard things, Stella. Now stick to what you’re good at and train Luke to swim.”


I hated to admit it, but he had a good point. Training Luke was a challenge I was good at. He already could catch a wave. If I put my emotions aside, and focused on the physical challenges, I could help Luke meet his goals and continue to pay off my debt. I just couldn’t let love or lust or whatever it was get in the way.
