The Summer Spotlight on Reading concludes with
At First Sight by Mya O'Malley.
Do you believe in love at first sight?
Blurb
Modern
love can be a headache. Just ask Annie
Morgan, who, recently divorced, finds herself in the middle of the proverbial
online dating jungle. Making a deal with
her best friend, Annie agrees to go out on exactly five online dates out of
seventy-six potential suitors.
Shane
Nicholls was jaded, he had his heart broken and never got over the hurt. Now,
convinced that all women are trouble, he avoids drama at any cost. Funny thing is, drama seems to find Shane
around every corner.
Can
Annie, a romantic at heart, find love online or will she find love at first
sight the old-fashioned way, by awkward, chance meetings with Shane Nicholls?
Through a number of obstacles and heartache, Annie and Shane find that love at
first sight really does exist if you truly believe.
Excerpt
Johnny’s was packed. Standing on
line to place her order, Annie took in her surroundings. Just as the owner,
Johnny, was coming over to take her order, something caught Annie’s eye. The
guy near the window, he seemed familiar somehow. Where had she seen him before?
He was eating dinner with a pretty brunette. He lifted his head to look at
Annie as their eyes locked. On no! It was the guy from the mall, the one she
bumped into. She quickly spun around, knocking right into the waitress who was
carrying a tray of soft drinks.
Soda soaked her shirt and dripped
onto the floor. The waitress was clearly annoyed and appeared like she would
have loved to tell Annie off. Instead she rolled her eyes and ran to get a
towel. If Annie thought she was embarrassed before, it was nothing compared to
how she felt now. Every eye in the place was on her, including the guy from the
mall. Helpless to do anything else, she grabbed some napkins and bent down to
sop up some of the mess.
“It seems you have a knack for
causing a scene everywhere you go.” It was his voice. The voice that
filled her head with inappropriate thoughts, with longing. What was she
thinking? Did she dare look up? His gaze was a magnet, forcing her to meet his
eyes.
His eyes were a warmer brown than
she had remembered, drawing her in.
“I...uh...”
“I’m joking. Here, let me help you
with that.” He grabbed the napkins from her hand. The heat between them jolted
her back. She moved quickly, surprised he could evoke such a reaction from her.
Nobody had ever made her feel so exposed before. What was going on here? Annie
felt foolish.
“I’m Shane. Shane Nicholls.” He
extended his hand to her. They must have appeared to be quite the sight,
bending over to clean up the mess while shaking hands.
“Annie.” Annie remembered her new
rules of safety in the dating world. One of them was she would not reveal her
last name or any other personal information until she was sure the guy wasn’t a
stalker or anything.
“Annie. It suits you, I like it.”
Annie had almost forgot about the woman waiting for Shane at the table near the
window. She glanced over and took in a tight-lipped woman. It hit Annie that
this woman was not the same stunning woman from the mall. Hmm, she had met his
type before. This guy had “player” written all over him. She quickly brushed
herself off and excused herself.
“Hey, Annie. Wait.” He reached for
her hand. Annie forgot all about placing her order and made a beeline for the
door. She didn’t look back. Well, Annie figured, it looked like it would be
Chinese food tonight.
