A Summer to Remember

her arm off when she touched him.
    “Just when I thought this day couldn’t get any worse.” I glared at Sam as she was walking through the line.
    “Ava. You don’t have anything to worry about. She’s just trying to get under your skin.”
    “Yeah. Well, it’s working.” He pulled me in and hugged me. I tried to calm myself down and just enjoy this last hug but I couldn’t get the image of Sam and him together out of my head.
    “I love you, Ava. You and no one else. Sam and I are done. I promise.” I nodded but didn’t say anything. “I need to get through security.” I pulled back and kissed him on the lips. “I love you. I’ll be back before you know it.” He turned away and started slowly toward security.
    “I love you, too. I’ll be waiting.” He looked over his shoulder and smiled. Just then Sam ran over to him and started chatting him up right away. She had obviously been waiting for him so they would have to stand in line together. Before I even had time to react, my phone buzzed. It was Lily.
     
    Is everything ok?
     
    I looked up just in time to see Sam give me a sideways glance. She was obviously trying to see if I was still watching.
    I answered.
     
    I hope so.

 
     
    ABOUT THE AUTHOR

    Jessica Gunhammer recently married her high school sweetheart and they’re lucky to call Hawaii home. She graduated college in May 2012 with a degree in fashion design and quickly realized it was not the right fit for her. So, after spending several years in a fast paced fashion industry, She started looking for something new to keep her busy.
     
    Reading has always been a passion of hers. However, she put this passion on the back burner, since she had no time to read during college. Soon after, Jessica and her mom started a publishing company. It was while working in the publishing industry that she rediscovered her love for writing. She’d always known she wanted to write, but never considered making a career out of it. After some feedback and support from her amazing family she decided to pursue her dreams of becoming an author.
     
    When Jessica has time between reading, writing and running a business, you can find her enjoying all Hawaii has to offer. She likes to spend her time with her husband, family and dog Asia. On the weekends you can find them teeing off at the nearest golf course, playing volleyball on the beach or visiting the local farmer’s market.
