CHAPTER ONE
It was a typical mid-October night in Chicago, Illinois, and Shannon Rivers was getting ready for her date. Her free-spirited extrovert roommate, Leah, lounged in the doorway, keeping her company as Shannon tried to figure out what to wear.
“Ten dates already, huh?”
“Yeah,” Shannon confirmed.
“Think tonight’s the night to finally... you know...?” Leah teased.
“Stop that,” Shannon admonished, even as she giggled and blushed. “And for the record, probably not.”
“Seriously?” Leah’s tone turned incredulous as she came and sat on Shannon’s bed. “Still not yet?”
Shannon shrugged. “I’m not ready.”
“Robert’s tall, built, cute, and is steadily employed,” Leah reminded her. “Pretty good catch.”
“I know,” Shannon sighed. “And he’s very attentive and sweet. I just don’t...,” and she trailed off.
She’d met Robert at the coffee shop on campus two months earlier. She was almost done with her double Bachelor’s in Finance and Accounting. He’d just graduated with his Master’s in Business and was studying for the CPA exam when he wasn’t working at Creach & Langford, one of the most prestigious investment firms in the nation.
He was handsome, smart, funny, charming, and completely besotted with her. The fact that she felt no spark whatsoever when he kissed her bothered her a great deal.
“Don’t, what?” Leah asked.
“Think of him like that,” Shannon confessed, then sighed again. “He’s a great guy, and I like spending time with him. But something’s missing, Leah. I’m just not attracted to him that way, at all, and I have no idea why. Unless that changes somehow, I don’t know how much longer I will see him. I know he wants more than just a goodnight kiss.”
“If that’s really how it is, you should tell him, Shannon,” Leah said somberly. “You can’t help what you don’t feel. It’s not anybody’s fault. It’s just the way things go sometimes.”
Shannon nodded. “Yeah. And like I said, he’s a great guy. Robert deserves someone who can be more than a friend to him.”
“So, talk to him. And after that, give him my number. I think he’s hot, and I’d be happy to ‘more than friend’ him as many times as humanly possible.”
Leah grinned as she watched Shannon’s eyebrows vault skyward.
“Girl, please. I’m kidding. You know I’d never do that. I mean, depending on the circumstances, I probably would, but not to you. Just trying to get you to loosen up and at least smile.”
“You’re talking like I haven’t seen you in action after a few too many Jell-O shots,” Shannon teased.
“I like to play the field. What’s your point?” Leah said primly.
Each of them managed to keep a straight face for a few moments before they both roared with laughter.
