Excerpt: Meet Leo and Tabitha
“Come over,” Leo said in a soft tone.
I turned to look at him and was a little startled by how close he had gotten when I wasn’t looking. His gaze was steady and heavy. I almost made a gulping sound when I swallowed.
“It’s late,” I answered. “And I’m exhausted. I did just fly in from Cali this morning.”
“Just for a little while,” he insisted. “If you can’t make it back to the hotel, you can always sleep in the guest room.”
“We’re having breakfast in the morning,” I reminded him.
“It will be morning in a little more than an hour,” he said, grinning.
God, he was even closer, our bodies were almost touching. Static crackled up my fingers and arm when his fingers brushed over mine at my side.
I swallowed hard again before answering. “I wasn’t expecting breakfast that early.”
“So, hang out for a little while and then we’ll still do breakfast later.”
“I’m tired,” I said lamely, but that wasn’t quite true anymore. I suddenly felt wide-awake.
“I don’t really care.” Leo’s voice was gentle, yet husky. His fingers trailed over mine once more before carefully closing over them. “I know that makes me sound like a dick, but I don’t really care if you’re tired. I am trying to make up for nine years of lost time.”
My lungs evaporated, like totally left my body. I felt like I wasn’t breathing at all as I looked up at him and as his thumb traced lightly over my knuckles.
I should say no and go back to my hotel room. I should say no. Tabitha, say no.
“Okay,” I said, ignoring that little voice in my head.

Girl Code Synopsis & Purchase Link
When Tabitha and her best friend Leslie were young, they made a pact to never get involved with the same guy. That wasn’t a problem for Tabitha, especially as far as Leo Pesciano was concerned. Tabitha hated the guy. It didn’t matter that he was good looking and all of the other girls drooled over him, and Leslie had a big crush on him. He was obnoxious and loved to rile Tabitha up; but when she is faced with life-altering challenges, Leo becomes her protector and her friend.
There is a strong chemistry between them that Tabitha tries very hard to ignore, but Leo doesn’t make it easy. After an explosive end to their friendship during their college years, more than nine years later they are reunited and Tabitha is again resistant to the attraction she feels to Leo.
Time, distance, and new lives have come between Leslie and Tabitha over the years, and they rarely speak or see each other, but Tabitha tries to uphold the girl code they created when they were children. Her loyalty to her old friend is admirable, but will this same loyalty destroy her chance with the man who just may be the love of her life?
