Release of Wish for You by Marquita Valentine


WISH FOR YOU

By Bestselling Author Marquita Valentine


 

A Boys of the South Novel, #4

Releasing January 20, 2014

New Adult Contemporary


There’s only one place in the world where I feel normal—the roller derby track. When I put on my skates and fasten my helmet, I’m powerful and in charge. I know exactly what to do and what to say. The rules are clear and everyone does exactly what they’re supposed to, penalties are enforced for those who don’t.



But in the real world, I’m far from powerful and in charge. I never know exactly what to do and say. For years, I counted on one person to be exactly who he said he was—my best friend -Wyatt Tanaka.



Only he's changed. Being a Marine and serving in a war has made him different. Now I want to help him, but I also want to kiss him. And that’s not something best friends do.



Neither of us, it seems, is content being just friends anymore. If we cross that line, change the rules of our relationship, it could be wonderful and everything I've ever wanted.



But it might also mean I'll lose the one person I've come to rely on and I don't think my heart can take it.





Wish for You Excerpts:



#1- Lacey- My throat gets all lumpy again, and I bite my lip to keep from crying.

For him to get so mad over me telling him that we can’t kiss anymore… that we had to go back to being only friends again. I just don’t get it. After all, it was just a kiss or two, nothing life altering

Okay, so it was more than just one kiss or two. It was tons of kisses, tons of his hands on my face and shoulders. His hands coasting down the sides of my body, tenderly and carefully, as if he was afraid I might break. His lips crushing mine. His breath becoming mine. I was his, and though we never did more than that, though his hands stayed on top of my clothes… I felt branded by him.



#2- Wyatt- Lately, I’ve come to realize how easy I had it in the ‘Stan. While I was there, I had no idea how her lips tasted, how her breaths came out in little pants when I rocked against her... No way of knowing just how damn good the curves I’d lusted after while she skated in short skirts and tight tops would feel. Ignorance was total bliss, and dreaming of her while in that shithole was Heaven.

I’m no longer ignorant, and this is a new level of Hell.
