We were best friends once, but we've barely spoken in almost a decade. Grandfather backed both of us into a corner and there was nothing else to do except agree.\u003cbr\u003eAnd now here we are, standing awkwardly, avoiding each other's eyes as-\u003cbr\u003e\"You may now kiss the bride,\" rings out across the room.\u003cbr\u003eMy eyes shoot up just as Layden looks down. I blink. Oh crap. I'm looking at my... husband.\u003cbr\u003eHis gray eyes are dark with intensity as he glares down at me. Does that mean he still hates me?\u003cbr\u003eDon't tremble. Don't show him he affects you at all.\u003cbr\u003eI'm still so busy trying not to be affected by him, all I can do is hiccup in shock and throw my arms around him as he swoops down and crushes his lips to mine. My whole body shudders, coming alive like it hasn't in the ten years since he left.\u003cbr\u003eMy fingers dig into his shoulders; his hands clench my waist-oh god, is this what it would have been like to kiss him all those years ago?\u003cbr\u003eFinally, the first kiss we never had.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Stasia Black\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9798245484501\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Independently Published\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 01\/25\/2026\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 412\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.89lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.00h x 5.00w x 0.92d","brand":"Stasia Black","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48454374850815,"sku":"9798245484501","price":19.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_dd03b900-e2a7-4593-a1a4-9adf2e426cbb.jpg?v=1777305827","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/hunger-stasia-black-9798245484501","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
