Unrivaled (2016)
“Of course he’d follow. He’d basically followed her directly from the Neiman Marcus shoe department to the Night for Night dance floor. It was the perfect way to end the first week.
She’d spotted him the moment he walked into the club—well, she and every other girl in the vicinity. Though unlike the rest of them, Aster breezed past, pretending not to notice or care.
Guys like Ryan were used to girls fawning all over them—happy to bask in the glow of a big-name celebrity while requiring nothing i...n return. While it was probably an ego boost for the guys, it was degrading for the girls. If they were after a quick hookup so they could brag to their friends, then whatever, carry on. But if they were hoping it would result in something more (and Aster suspected most of them were), then that was their first major mistake. Nobody in the history of relationships ever wanted to be with the person who was too easy to get—or at least not for long.
Aster had managed to remain a virgin for as long as she had, not because of her parents’ expectations (that had little if anything to do with it, not to mention, her virginity was a technicality at best), but because she held herself in such high regard she’d yet to find someone worthy of sharing such an intimate part of herself.MoreLess
