Searching for Harmony (Boston Love 1)

“Preston? Is everything okay?” Harmony asked as she placed her hand on my arm, causing a jolt of energy to rip through my body.

“Yeah. I was just thinking, that’s all.”

Dropping her hand, Harmony talked about all the great recipes she’d gotten from my mother. Before I knew it, we were pulling into the club’s parking lot and I was praying like hell some asshole didn’t catch Harmony’s eye. As we walked toward the building, I could her the bass from the club booming and Harmony smiled a beautiful smile. “I haven’t gone dancing since before I had TJ.”

“Really? Well then, you have some making up to do, sweetheart.”

Harmony’s eyes lit up when I called her “sweetheart.”

“I should probably get on your dance card now, huh?”

Biting her lip, Harmony walked closer to me and placed both hands on my chest. “My dance card is already filled, Mr. Ward.”

My heart dropped and I was sure panic moved across my face. “It is?”

Nodding slowly, she reached up on her toes and brushed her lips gently across mine. “Your name occupies all the spots; I hope you don’t get tired of me.”

Wrapping my arms around her, I pulled her into me and she let out a gasp as my hard dick pressed into her stomach. “I could never get tired of you, Ms. Banks.”

Harmony’s eyes glassed over with tears as she whispered, “Promise?”

Wrapping my hand around the back of her neck, I pressed our lips together and kissed her with as much passion as I could.

“Oh, holy hell, Preston! I thought you would at least be able to control yourself until after we got into the club,” Finn yelled out.

“Don’t mess up her hair, Preston!” Angie yelled out.

Harmony and I laughed as we pulled back from each other. “You ready to get your dance on?” I asked.

Nodding, she laced her arm through mine and we headed into the club. The bouncer looked at Harmony’s license and smiled. “Three more hours, I’m going to give you a wristband and stamp. Once it gets past midnight, you can drink.”

“Okay,” Harmony said as she looked up at me and grinned.

Finding his way to a table, Finn clapped his hands and then pointed to Angie. “Behave. Don’t leave with anyone. Don’t take a drink from anyone, and check back in with one of us every hour. We’ll all meet back here at one to see how everyone is feeling.”

Angie held up her hand and said, “I see my friends. Later, big brothers.” Turning to Harmony, she leaned over and whispered something that made Harmony’s cheeks turn bright red.

Giving me a wink, Angie took off.

“What did she say?” I asked Harmony, who looked shocked as hell by whatever my sister had said to her.

“Um…nothing. It was, ah…nothing at all.”

Tilting my head, I gave Harmony an incredulous stare. Holding up her hands, she laughed. “I swear, it was nothing.”

“One drink, then we’ll go dance. What do you want?” I asked as Harmony glanced around the club.

“Diet Coke.”

Laughing, I said, “Seriously? You don’t want a drink?”

“Preston, no! He told me I had to wait until midnight.”

Good God this girl is too good to be true. Her innocence had to be one of the most attractive things ever. “Diet Coke it is.”

After fight

ing the crowd at the bar and two really drunk girls trying to get my attention, I made my way back to Harmony, who was sitting at the table talking to Wes. Setting her Diet Coke down on the table, I sat down next to her. Wes glanced at me, then back at Harmony. “Have you always wanted to be in nursing?”
