Something Just Like This: A You & Me Novel
Author: Lisa Shelby

Genre: Adult Contemporary Romance




I met Liam four years ago at my best friend’s wedding. He was tall, dark, handsome and cocky as hell. The life of the party who had no trouble finding new friends to go home with each night.

Now he’s here in my hometown and a part of my daily life. He’s still just as tall, dark and handsome as he ever was but he has quickly become a friend and confidant. 

But if he’s just a friend, then why am I starting to feel the way I do about him? Why do I want to help him escape the pain that has clearly followed him here? Why does the beat of my heart pick up speed every time he touches me? 

After 30 years of waiting for The One, could Liam be my fairy tale bliss?

Cami is fierce and loyal, independent and stubborn, sweet and sassy…and damn she’s hot as hell. I tip my hat to the man that finally conquers the fiery little redhead. Although, I can’t imagine there is a man alive worthy of her.

I know that man isn’t me, but I’ll be damned if I don’t wish it were. I’m still fighting old demons and I’ll never be enough for a woman like her, but it doesn’t mean I don’t want her. Every minute of every day my desire for her grows. 

When she decides to make it her life’s mission to battle my ghosts and the pain that haunts me, she makes my need for her impossible to ignore. This woman has shaken me from my self-loathing and has brought me back to life. Back to the man I once was. The man I want to be. 

Could someone like me be worthy of someone like her? Of something just like this?

Her hands slide around my neck. “Kiss me.”
And before I get the chance to do as she commands, the softness of her lips are covering mine in the whisper
of a kiss. Her kiss is soft, slow, sensual, and hot as fucking hell.
I have had lots of first kisses…I mean a lot…but never one like this. You always hear that when you kiss the
person you’re meant to be with, you feel it in that instant. I’ve always thought that was pure fiction.
Until. Right. Now.
She pulls back, and her emerald eyes are smoldering.
She’s the one who demanded the kiss. Who made the first move. But she seems just as shocked as I am.
Does she feel it too?
She seems to be at a loss of what to do next, but I know exactly what to do.
As much as I want to go caveman on her, I keep it soft and sweet when I capture her with my lips and pull her
body flush with mine. My tongue outlines the seam of her lips, and she opens to me without apprehension. I feel the vibration of a whimper from the back of her throat as I gently and slowly continue to taste her.
I have never tasted anything so sweet. She may be the God-damned bee’s knees, but she is also sweet as fucking honey.
