Can't Buy Me Love
Can't Buy Me Love
“When Tara Jean was growing up, the river of men that flowed through their trailers and crappy apartments all had necks the size of Rayanne’s waist.
She’d said once that they made her feel small and safe.
Until, of course, they got mad at her. And then all that brute strength came to bear on Rayanne and spilled over onto Tara Jean.
Which was why, as a rule, Tara Jean stuck to thin guys. Some of her boyfriends might have even weighed even less than she did. And she was okay with that, because the theory was that she could hold her own in a fight with a skinny guy.
Of course, that proved to be just as much bullshit as the rest of her theories.
But the point was, back when she was attracted to men and felt anything other than numb, she didn’t like big guys. Men like Luc, with their big arms, strong chests and all those sweat-slicked muscles, did nothing for her.
She stood in front of the window unit in her studio, the cold air blowing right down the front of her vest, turning her nipples ...to ice but doing nothing to calm the fire under her skin, and wondered when that had changed.MoreLess
