#Selfie (Hashtag Series #4) by Cambria Hebert
Publication Date: May 18th, 2015
Genre: New Adult Contemporary Romance
~Summary~
It’s all about the #Selfie.
She was the one girl I never wanted.
Until I had her.
One night.
One mistake.
Something we both wanted to forget.
I got rid of the proof. The one piece of evidence that could remind us both.
At least, I thought I did.
When it shows up on the school Buzzfeed, rumors fly. Friendships are tested and the feels get real.
I don’t do relationships. I don’t open my heart.
Especially for a girl everyone knows I hate.
What happens during spring break, stays in spring break.
Until it follows you home.
~Excerpt~
I didn’t think.
I just reacted.
I leapt over the
railing with ease. The distance down and the uneven sand I would be landing on
didn’t even cross my mind.
It didn’t
matter.
I landed like a
cat, no trouble at all, and the second my feet hit the sand, I moved forward.
Ivy was almost beneath the deck, but not quite. Her back was to me and she was
sitting up, hunched forward over part of herself.
She was muttering
some pretty damn colorful curse words beneath her breath, and my face split
into a smile. “Another angry crab attack you?”
She stiffened
and looked over her shoulder. Long blond hair cascaded down her back and
partially over her shoulder, creating a waterfall around her.
God, she was
beautiful.
Wait. No. No,
she wasn’t.
I cleared my
throat.
“Braeden?” She
glanced up, surprised. “Did you jump down here?”
“Well, you
screamed like you might be dying,” I quipped.
“Hardly.” She
tried to roll her eyes, but it turned into a grimace. “I need a Band-Aid,” she
said pathetically.
I bit back a
smile and crouched down beside her. “Let me see.”
She leaned back
a little so her body wasn’t blocking my view. The movement brought her closer
against me, and the scent of cinnamon wrapped around me. My stomach muscles
tightened and I jerked slightly. There was no way she could have noticed, but
her head tilted back and her eyes found mine.
We stared at
each other for the span of a few heartbeats, neither of us moving or saying a
word until someone called down from above, wanting to know if we were okay.
I blinked,
bringing myself back from the edge—the edge I always seemed perched on around
her—and motioned for her to show me what was wrong.
She lifted her
foot into her lap, and I looked down.
I heard myself
mutter something, but I was back to not thinking again.
She had the cap
of a beer bottle sticking out of the bottom of her foot. Blood oozed out around
it and dripped into the sand.
I cradled her
foot in my hand and gently stroked my thumb along her heel. A shudder moved
through her, and I glanced up.
“Hurts, huh?” I
murmured.
She blinked.
“Uh…” She blinked again. “Yeah.”
Using one hand,
I reached around to the base of my neck and pulled my T-shirt up over my head.
I didn’t say anything when I reached for her again, and without any warning, I
yanked the cap free.
Her breath
hissed between her teeth and she smacked my arm.
“Hey!” I
snapped.
“That hurt!” she
yelled, but it came out more like a whimper.
I tossed the cap
over my shoulder and glanced back down. Fresh blood welled. “It’s over now,” I
said gently and used my shirt to wrap around her foot.
Once the shirt
was in place, I pressed her foot between my hands, applying a little pressure.
Really, I just
wasn’t ready to let go.
“Braeden?” Her
voice caressed me. Being down here mostly concealed by the deck in the cool
sand and low lighting brought back last night. It reminded me of the undeniable
electricity between us.
I thought for
sure it would be gone.
It was still
there.
