Kissing A Stranger

Decker

If you ask my family, I'm wasting my life. If you ask me, I'm living it to the fullest. Am I capable of doing more? Absolutely. However, slinging drinks at the resort makes me happy. At least for now. Not that my family would understand.

It's just another night behind the bar, until it isn't. She's everything I never knew I wanted wrapped up in one breathtaking package.

I'm drawn from the start, willing to do what it takes for a little more time. The problem is the sand in the hourglass is running out. Her extended stay is coming to an end, and when it does, I'll have to let her go.

Even if I don't want to.

I've been looking forward to this weekend since my best friend announced her destination wedding. Sure, I wanted to see my oldest friend marry the love of her life, but I also needed a break from life...from my father.

However, even states away, he still manages to control my fate. I wanted one weekend. Three days without the stresses and obligations that come along with having my last name.

For the first time in my life, I ignore my father's demands and open my eyes to what I truly want. I'm seeing everything around me in a new light, and that includes the hot bartender at the resort.

That's how I ended up kissing a stranger.
