Felix by Kali Hart

Felix:
I don’t like to go out.
I’m content with staying in and tinkering with some electronic or reading a physics book.
I’m a total nerd, I know.
But I’m here at this charity auction to support my friend who’s about to be sold as a date.
It’s for a good cause.
Plus, there’s a taco bar.
But no one prepared me for the angelic voice that takes the stage.
I’m entranced by her beauty, her grace, her voice.
I know in that moment I would give all the tacos in the world to make her mine.

Bailey:
I agree to sing for my friend’s charity auction, even though performing on stage terrifies me.
I’ve secretly longed for this dream for so long that I find the courage to push through.
When I see the sexy man in glasses in the audience, my fears disappear.
But when I learn that he’s a firefighter, I run.
My brother was a firefighter, killed on duty.
I swore I would never fall in love with anyone who put their life at risk every day.
But Felix is smart, funny, and most of all persistent.
It will take every ounce of willpower to turn him down.
Because despite his risky profession, I want him.
More than I’ve ever wanted anything.
