Bennett and Cassie are at it again, this time looking the ultimate challenge in the eye and deciding, after everything they’ve been through, why not?
AFTER ALL THIS TIME
Some people are meant to be together, even if they find each other through tragedy. When Bennett Saville’s brother jumped off a bridge and landed on Cassandra Wallace’s car, their lives become intertwined in a way they never wanted to unravel. But so much has happened, and most of it would have been soul destroying if they hadn’t had each other. And now, after all these years, they are ready to take the final step to declare their love, but Bennett’s star is rising fast, and being a famous actor with a hit movie might undo all the trust they have built their love on.
ALWAYS
Cassie isn’t the jealous, insecure type, but things have changed, and so has Bennett. Coming into his prime as a man and as a highly regarded actor, Cassie, ten years older than her lover, begins to worry that their foundation is shaky, and that she can’t compete with the jiggly twenty year-olds who throw themselves in Bennett’s path. What she can’t see is herself through Bennett’s eyes. If she could, she would know always and forever is all he ever wanted with his Cass.
Excerpt:
Cassie
stood at the check-in counter at the airline’s VIP lounge with a heavy heart as
she watched Bennett convince the staff into allowing him a bigger baggage
allowance. The older woman seated behind the desk couldn’t withstand his charm,
and with a coy smile she waved his suitcase through.
He
came over to Cassie, well pleased, his cabin bag slung over his shoulder. “Told
you they’d let me go over.”
She
grinned at him. “Who can resist you?” She turned and gestured to the doors,
where photographers waited.
Bennett
sighed. “I’m already cutting it fine. I need to get to the departure gate. It’s
a fair bit away. Walk with me?”
He
strode off with her hand in his, having turned a couple of times and waved at
the photographers, who weren’t allowed past security. Cassie struggled to keep
up with him. The gate was far away and by the time they got there she was a
little out of breath, having had to double step to match his long stride.
He
grinned as he looked at her flushed face. “Sorry about that. If I miss this
plane, John will kill me. He’s got a whole raft of stuff planned for when I get
there, and to be honest, it looks like I’ll have no time at all to spare for
the first week.”
Bennett
looked over at the gate where the sign flashed that his flight was ready to
board. He pulled her close as he hugged her tightly.
“I’ll
miss you, you know that, don’t you?” His mouth found hers and she clung on to
him as she kissed him back.
She
nodded. “I’ll miss you too. Make sure you call me when you get there, at least
when you can.”
He
gave her one last hug and stood back. She already felt bereft.
He
smiled at her. “I love you. Look after yourself. Try not to give the
Metropolitan Police any more excuses to put you on their leaderboard.”
She
laughed. “I love you too.”
Bennett
nodded, smiled, and approached the desk to present his passport and boarding
pass. The man behind the desk waved him through and he looked back one last
lingering time at her before he disappeared.
Cassie
stood there for a minute not wanting to admit that he’d gone. The marathon sex
session they’d had last night would have to sustain her—and more importantly
him—until his return.
She
sighed heavily and made her way back to the exit to drive home.
