Exclusive Excerpt:

Before I know it, I’m a foot away from the basketball court. The players are taking a break, and Bandit stands at the edge of the concrete, taking long pulls from a water bottle. Up close, his brilliant hair looks almost purple, and his T-shirt sticks to his back in sweaty patches, hinting at his solid muscles. Now what? Do I clear my throat? Tap his shoulder? Going for broke, I do both at the same time. He turns and lifts his eyebrows, as though wondering how a mere mortal such as myself dares to approach him. He’s tall—really tall. Almost a head above my five feet five. His jaw is chiseled, his shoulders broad. I’m so close that I can feel the heat rising off his body. My brain scrambles. I forgot to check if I had any food in my teeth! Did I brush my hair this morning? Put on clothes? Okay, so clearly I’m not naked, but for the life of me, I can’t remember what I’m wearing. Please don’t let it be the navy T-shirt with the faded splotches on the shoulder, from when I accidentally added bleach instead of detergent to the laundry. I glance down. Jeans and a white tank top—my favorite shirt because it has Lin-Manuel Miranda’s autograph. More than passable. “I, uh…” My entire vocabulary chooses that moment to flee. His lids lower, and he looks at me, decidedly bored. “Yes? Can I help you?” Three, four, five of his basketball friends angle their towering bodies toward us, probably wondering what the interruption is about. Sweat gathers at the nape of my neck, and electricity hums along my skin. The Voice is about to zap me again. I just know it. “Running out of time,” the Voice pipes up, as if on cue. “Tell him.” Say the words and be done with it. Say the words. Say. The. Words. “I love you,” I blurt. “That is all. Goodbye.” I wheel around, ready to sprint, when a hand snags my arm. His hand. “Wait a minute,” Bandit says, his eyes 2 percent less bored. “Are we in third grade? Do you want to give me a note asking if I love you back, so I can circle yes or no?” My cheeks burn hotter than the sun assaulting my skin. Hotter, even, than the flames that got me into this mess. I could really use that alien abduction right about now. The object of my supposed affection smirks. “We can skip the note. Can’t say I blame you for falling for me. I mean, I’m a lovable guy. But have we actually met?” He lowers his voice. “Outside of your wildest dreams, that is.”
