Chapter 149

• I smiled happily. My first instinct was simply happiness. How could I not be happy? A gorgeous woman who I was very, very fond of had told me she was falling in love with me. And I tilted my head so that we could come together for a beautifully tender kiss.
• But then I remembered Taylor. And I remembered Cassandra. And Kate. And oh man, my love life was complicated. But I couldn't help it. Every time I got together with Ashlyn, whether having sex or just having a conversation, I felt such an incredible connection to her.
• I was more confused than ever about my feelings for Ashlyn. I knew I would soon have to make a decision about her and about our relationship. She simply couldn't just stay a houseguest/renter/whatever. My feelings for her simply weren't stable.
