Cooper Clark never liked me.
From the time we were kids, we bickered and fought. We argued. We battled it out on the playground and later, when we were teenagers, in the schoolyard. I kicked his ass more times than I cared to count, but then something happened.
I realized that I was totally, completely, madly in love with him the same week he started dating my best friend.
After graduation, I left, and I didn't look back. I didn't keep in touch with anyone. I didn't stay connected to my old classmates. I didn't do any of that.
Then my aunt gets sick, and I have the chance to move back to town and take over her bakery, which has always been an integral part of Ashton. It's a no-brainer for me. I promised her I'd return and take over the shop one day, and there's no time like the present, right?
My first day on the job, things are looking up. Then Cooper Clark walks through those doors, and I realize that some things never change.
Savored is a super cute second chance romance in which Cordelia and Cooper find themselves unable to break free of destiny. What connected them in high school still draws them together years later when Cordelia finds herself back in her hometown. Cooper is sweet and sensitive and really pursues her like a true gentleman should. There is a little bit of drama but, no good love comes easy. I really did feel bad for her at times regarding her Aunt and the bitterness she had held onto since high school but I was so happy that she was able to reach her HEA with Cooper.
A taste
I didn’t say I love you.
I didn’t say take me home.
I just whispered his name and silently prayed that the moment would never end because I didn’t want it to. I wanted to be locked in this moment for all of eternity: just him and me. Just the two of us: forever and always.
There are moments in your life where everything seems to slow down. Sometimes things seem to just come to a complete standstill. That was one of those moments.
“I’m going to come if you don’t stop,” he whispered. It was a warning, but it was also a question. I didn’t care. I wanted him. I wanted to taste him in my mouth. I wanted to know that I was powerful and sexy and could make him fall apart just for me.
And then he did.
