American Girl On Saturn
by Nikki Godwin
Release Date: 08/24/13
SUMMARY
The summer after graduation is supposed to be that first real taste of freedom - but not for eighteen-year-old Chloe Branson. Just as that breeze of freedom is making its way into her galaxy, her secret-service-agent dad drops a meteor-sized bomb of bad news on her and her sisters. An attempt has been made on the lives of Canadian boyband, Spaceships Around Saturn, during their USA tour, and the guys have to go into hiding ASAP. The only problem? In the midst of the crisis and media frenzy, their dad volunteered to hide the guys...in their house.
Six-year-old Emery is as ecstatic as any self-proclaimed Saturnite would be, but Chloe and her seventeen-year-old sister Aralie watch their summer plans crash and burn like a falling star. The SAS guys aren't happy with the situation, either. Bad boy Jules picks fights with Aralie about everything from his Twitter followers to his laundry, and heart-throb Benji can't escape Emery's fangirlisms for more than three minutes.
But after the super-cute Milo kisses Chloe during a game of hide-and-seek, she finally understands what Emery means when she talks about SAS being "out of this world." If this is what Saturn feels like, Chloe doesn't want to come back to Earth.
EXCERPT
He reaches toward the tray and grabs the
lone Oreo. “Okay, this is my last one for the night,” he says. “Half it with
me?”
Seriously? If I wasn’t the envy of every
Saturnite in the world just by sitting across the table from him, I’m
definitely the envy of them now because the Milo Grayson wants to half his
precious Oreo with me. And the thing
that sucks the most is that no one knows about it to be jealous of me!
He holds the cookie up and waits for a
response.
“Yeah, we can half it,” I say.
I reach across the table for it, but he
jerks his arm back. The sleeve of his T-shirt hugs his bicep tightly, and oh
how I wish to be that fabric.
“Not so fast,” he says. “Let’s make it
interesting.”
Could this be any more interesting? Hello –
you’re gorgeous and famous and sharing cookies with me! Any more ‘interest’ and
I might burst like a firework.
“If you get the side with the cream, I’ll
give you my honest male opinion about your checkout line drama today,” he says.
“But if I get the cream side, you have to tell me, honestly, who you think the
best looking guy is in Spaceships Around Saturn.”
Oh God. He’s for real. Does he know? He
totally knows. He knows I’m lusting for him from behind this glass of milk and
tattoo magazine. He knows that his eyes make me melt and that I clearly watch
him on Twitter because I know all about amazzzzzing. Now he wants to make me
‘fess up.
“Deal.” I say it before I can chicken out.
I can always lie and say Benji’s name. He’s
the fan favorite anyway. BenjiBaccariniis
Spaceships Around Saturn for so many girls.
He leans forward, positions himself over the
table, and holds up that fated Oreo. I push my glass of milk aside because the
last thing I want is to knock it over with my quivering nerves. Then I lean
toward him, grip the cookie with my fingers, and inhale every scent of his body
wash that I can while I twist my half of the Oreo away from his half.
