Excerpt:
Unwisely, they had created a reminiscent mood. She knew someone should call a halt to their nostalgia. Jay was a married man and here they were inviting disaster, but it was so much fun to pretend that they were teen-agers again. For a few minutes they threw wisdom to the wind.
AnnaMarie had trouble attending to what he said, wondering what Jay was really thinking and how it would feel to reach out and touch his lips. His face was strong, not with pretty boy looks, but character lines around his eyes. She remembered the first time she'd seen him years ago in the principal's office. Dark hair, neatly parted and combed, a clean but faded blue shirt, pressed khakis. Bringing a note to the office, he had shown his confidence even at eleven.
She thought she had long ago outgrown desire. It was back again, stronger than ever and intuition told her, they could either give up and kiss or die wanting to.
