EXCERPT :
I
head towards the bar and Grace isn’t even paying attention. She’s chatting up the bartender, who sees me coming and excuses
himself as I take a seat two stools away from her.
"Hey,"
I say in a low voice. "I’m
sorry for picking you up back there. It was presumptuous to think you’d talk to me tonight, let alone come up to my room."
"Another
margarita," Grace calls out to the bartender.
I
catch his eye and hold up a finger. "Scotch, please. Top shelf."
"I’m not interested in your excuse, Vaughn. Truly." She
looks me in the eyes for the first time tonight. "Truly, I am not
interested. I’m
not playing a game with you. I’m
not playing hard to get. I’m
not pretending to be pissed. I’m not even pissed. I’m just not interested. You’re not the man I thought you were. And I get that I was
invested in the fantasy version of you. OK?" she says, shaking her head a
little. "I get that. It was my fault for turning you into some kind of
Prince Charming. So it’s
not fair that I had such high expectations of you. I’m sorry that I blamed you for something I caused."
The
bartender delivers our drinks and takes Grace’s empty glass away. I take a sip of my Scotch, then gulp it
all, and slide my glass on the bar. "Another, please." The bartender
nods and moves off to get that. I put my head in my hands. "Grace," I
say, rubbing my temples. "Just for the fun of it, tell me what that Prince
Charming version of me was like. How do I not measure up?" I look up at
her, but she’s
staring down into her pink drink, playing with the paper umbrella. "Was I
nicer? Was I more generous? What is the real Vaughn Asher missing?"
She
meets my gaze for a moment, but it’s a fleeting one. They drop back down just a
quickly and shrugs her shoulders. “I don’t know. The fantasy was… charming. Not
just in a princely way, either. But really, really charming. Saying witty
things, and being at ease with himself and others. He jokes with me and makes
me laugh. You…"
She doesn’t
look at me, just continues to stare into her drink. "You make me sad. You
make me feel inadequate. You make me feel stupid and small and pathetic."
Fuck.
"How though? How did I do that? Because that was not my intention.
OK?" I reach out and cover her small hand with mine. "I never wanted
to make you feel like that. I wanted to excite you."
She
looks up at my eyes and I almost wish she hadn’t. Her expression is overflowing with disappointment and she
looks tired. She does look sad. She looks like she cried very hard earlier and
the makeup can’t
quite hide that. "You wanted to excite yourself, Vaughn. You wanted
to please yourself. Not me. Everything you did, from picking out those
clothes to putting money in my bank account, all of it was for your benefit.
You lie to yourself, I think. You’re one long string of self-serving lies. I don’t know how you do it, or how you get so many girls to play
along. But all your best intentions were nothing but really good deceptions.
And even though I know in my heart" —she clenches her fist and holds it over her chest—"that the fairy tale is fake, that it doesn’t exist and I’m setting myself up for disappointment, I don’t care. Because I deserve that happy ending, Vaughn. I do.
You might not think so. You might think I’m just some silly girl who has no right to expect so much
from a man. But I don’t
care. Maybe that man doesn’t
exist and maybe I’ll
spend the rest of my life alone, waiting for my prince. I don’t care. I refuse to play this game with you."
And
then she reaches into her little clutch purse to grab her credit card and wave
it at the bartender. "I’m
done, Vaughn. And for what it’s
worth, I do believe you about that girl on the TV. Thank you for the charity
money. I will make sure it goes to worthy organizations and send you the
receipt so you can claim it on your taxes."

AUTHOR BIO
J. A. Huss likes to write new adult books that make you think and keep you guessing. Her favorite genre to read is space opera, but since practically no one reads those books, she writes new adult science fiction, paranormal romance, contemporary romance, urban fantasy, and books about Junco (who refuses to be saddled with a label).
She has an undergraduate degree in horses, (yes, really–Thank you, Colorado State University) and a master’s degree in forensic toxicology from the University of Florida. She used to have a job driving around Colorado doing pretty much nothing but shooting the breeze with farmers, but now she just writes, runs the New Adult Addiction and Clean Teen Reads Book Blogs, and runs an online science classroom for homeschoolers.
