Summary
Their eyes lock again, and the heat in his gaze catches her off guard, making her stomach swoop. She presses her thighs together without thinking, but James notices—the quick flick of his eyes downward, the sharp swallow that follows.

Summary
"You did WHAT?!"
Belly closed her eyes, feeling the humiliation wash over her again. "I sent Conrad a love letter on the back of his anniversary invitation."
"On purpose?" Taylor's voice still hadn't quite gone down in pitch.
"No, of course it wasn't on purpose," she snapped.
"Okay. Good," Taylor said slowly. "Otherwise I would've thought you'd lost your mind."
"That's the thing," Belly sighed. "I think I am."
Or: in the lead-up to hers and Jeremiah's ten-year wedding anniversary, Belly accidentally sends a love letter to Conrad. It's the final nail in the coffin of a marriage that's been dead for quite some time.

Summary
After weeks of steering clear of him had led nowhere, Belly had reached the end of her rope. Desperate times call for desperate measures, that’s what they say.
So she’d faced him head-on and told him she noticed the way he’d been looking at her – that she loved the way he’d been looking at her, actually – and that maybe she’d end up loving it a little less if they did something about it.
Because she was going to marry his brother. And that wasn’t about to change. Because she loved his brother. She loved him so much, really, that the only way they could try to get each other out of their system was by not touching at all.
Out of respect for Jeremiah.

Summary
“God, you’re such an arse,”Lily laughs, unable to hold back. “So you’d like to put your date through some sort of trial—”
“No,” James cuts in with a grin. “It’s just—I don’t know if you’ve noticed, but I’m not so good at surface level things. Talking about the weather, exams, sitting in the same old pub—it’s so boring. I’d want my date to have a little adventure. To do something we’ve never done a million times before—to—”
“Sit in a pile of rubbish?”
As if on cue, wind gusts up the alleyway and rustles the crinkled chip wrappings at their feet. James turns to her, eyes wide and deliberate.
“Sure,” he says quietly, “If that’s what she’d rather do.”

Summary
“Please.” She clutches onto the front of his shirt, and it’s unfair because he’s the one who’s drowning; he’s the one who needs an anchor. “Please, don’t ask anything. I just—I need to feel something.”
