Synopsis:
Tess has never had sex. Believe it or not, she’s never had a decent kiss. The aspiring Seattle painter and photographer is still recovering from the trauma of being beaten and nearly raped at a rock show nearly three years before. So she keeps life simple: she goes to school, goes to work in a coffee shop, goes home, goes on living. But then Ben’s naked body crashes—almost literally—through Tess’s wall against the world. Ben is doing his dad’s art-teacher girlfriend a favor when he agrees to pose nude for her drawing class. But what he draws is the interest of the irresistible punk-looking girl—and it’s interest he reciprocates, with interest. Their sexual chemistry is too much to resist. But it’s when they have their clothes on that their heat quickly slips on ice. Ben’s womanizing history is one thing, but it’s history of another kind—related to that fateful night at the rock show—that threatens to tear the young lovers apart forever.
Excerpt:
I look to my right to see another student halfway through his drawing, scanning from the top of his pad down to the bottom, and that’s when I notice the subject. I snap my head up so rapidly I think I got whiplash. He’s sitting perfectly still on top of a table, his back to me, thank God, because I realize that my mouth is hanging open. Ms. S clears her throat and I glance at her, as she waves her hand in the direction of the model and forms her hand to look like she’s hold a pencil and drawing… yeah yeah I’m getting to work.
