A wave of adrenaline crashed through me as the Raptor landed and taxied down the runway where I stood waiting. I was on assignment to handle PR for the Air Force's Raptor demonstration team, and my fascination with the powerful aircraft made this my ultimate dream job. But as the pilot popped his cockpit canopy and climbed out of the jet, my adrenaline quickly turned to shock, leaving me speechless and a little crazed. Ian Thomas was striding from the jet, directly toward me, with a perfectly cocky smirk plastered on his face. The last time I saw him was twelve years ago, in high school. He was the quiet nerdy boy and I was the popular cheerleading queen that never gave him the time of day. That lanky nerd was now replaced by the confident pilot in front of me. Seeing him in his flight suit and the way his jaw flexed as he slid his aviators over his eyes, I knew I was in trouble. And I was about to cause a whole lot of trouble in return.
