Sunflowers and Surrender: Wild Blooms Series, Book 16

Tuesday

Each day I long for the forbidden.

Dreams like seeds planted in poor soil.

My future has been sown since I was young,

and now the man I've fallen for is off-limits.

Not that he'd give me the time of day.

My brother's best friend puts out fires by day,

and ignites unfamiliar feelings by night.

How do I pluck these desires before they overtake me?

I'm choosing to stay positive. Live joyfully, like a sunflower.

If only someone like Alex could adore me as I do my faithful blossoms.

Alex

My life is nearly perfect.

Great job, hot girl, and amazing friends.

So why do I feel off?

I'm not looking for more. And if I was,

the last thing I'm allowed to consider is Tuesday Palmer.

If only she hadn't put me under a spell

with her bright smile and radiant personality.

But restraint is the name of this game.

I can only look, not touch, this tempting flower.

Even if I'm dying to surrender.
