Kiss Me Kate

What is the storm of the century compared to the unstoppable force of true love?

It’s been three years, but the memories of Silas Gentry still haunt me.

Never trust a charming smile and smooth words. He was my brother’s best friend and my first real crush. When he agreed to take me to my senior prom, I thought we’d finally made a connection. I was foolish enough to dream our first date was a promising start to the greatest love story ever told. Instead of dancing the night away, I cried myself to sleep wearing a dress I saved for months to buy. That night I vowed to never fall in love again.

Kate Benson is the one that got away. She’s my biggest regret and the girl who motivated me to be a better man, hoping one day to be worthy enough to beg for a second chance. Three years ago, I made a huge mistake. I was young and stupid, but wise enough to know I wasn’t good enough for someone as amazing as her. When I came to my senses, it was too late to make amends. She’d left for college in the big city and banished me from her life.

I should have moved on, but I can’t. That little girl had captured my heart, and her beautiful smile was forever imprinted on my soul. So, when a new job brings her home, I devise a plan to sweep her off her feet, win back her love and finally tell her how I truly feel.

We’ve wasted enough time apart, and nothing can stop me from making her mine – not even the powers above.
