"Sam Anderson has been cautious over men after her boyfriend cheated on her, but things have changed when Phoenix comes into the picture. 

Phoenix Williams comes back to the town he swore not to revisit. He’s a cocky, confident, and relentless businessman—the type of man Sam despised. Surprisingly, the same qualities draw Phoenix closer to her. 

He also treats her like a princess. But like most relationships, there are always ups and downs—their relationships tested by their pasts—the past that brings them closer, and the same past can change their lives forever."

Teasing Phoenix

　　I swallow hard and squeeze my eyes shut. “Yeah because you’re killing me here.” My voice becomes huskier.


　　She stands from my lap, this time I let her. I rub my face with my hands and release a deep breath.


　　“Stop saying like that. I need to go home anyway.” She checks her phone.


　　“I will send you just wait until I calm a bit.”


　　She looks at me with a query look. “Did you forget I have my car down? And you rode to school with Garrett.”


　　“And so? Can’t I send you? I’ll drive your car, then I’ll call a cab to get back home.”


　　She laughs. “I’ll be fine, Phoenix. I’ll let you know if I get home safe.”


　　I grab her hand. “Not so fast, always stubborn. It’s the right thing to do to send my date home, but I won’t insist. You might change your mind and text me that you don’t want to see me again.”


　　She smiles. “I would definitely do that.” She then moves her face closer to mine, then kisses my nose, and I think it’s sweet.
