<p><em style=color: rgba(15 17 17 1)>Go inside Adaline. Unless you want them to see this.</em></p><p><br></p><p><span style=color: rgba(15 17 17 1)>Imagine the guy you've always wanted just whispered that in your ear. That you have one night to see what you've been missing.</span></p><p><br></p><p><span style=color: rgba(15 17 17 1)>I've had a crush on Emmett Ward for as long as I can remember. And not just because he looks like a Greek god and has the audacity to walk around like he could break your headboard given the chance.</span></p><p><br></p><p><span style=color: rgba(15 17 17 1)>But I was friend-zoned from the start so when he got drafted into the NFL and moved across the country I moved on to someone else-and ended up with a broken heart.</span></p><p><br></p><p><span style=color: rgba(15 17 17 1)>Now Emmett's on my doorstep claiming he never forgot about me. And this time...he's not looking at me like we're just friends anymore.</span></p><p><br></p><p><span style=color: rgba(15 17 17 1)>The heat between us is undeniable but I'm no fool. Football will always come first for Emmet Ward and I'm scared I'll end up left behind with my heart in pieces again.</span></p><p><br></p><p><span style=color: rgba(15 17 17 1)>But when he asks for one shot to win me over I can't say no. Even though I already know one night will never be enough.</span></p>
