“Oh no. I refuse to be your kind of bumper-sticker-romantic. Don't mistake me for Mr. Darcy.”

I gasp. “You don't know Hunger Games or Forks, Washington, but you know Mr. Darcy? Start talking.”

“No way!” I beam. “Let the contract state that I want the Mr. Darcy accent once a week!” I can't help but laugh again because he's shaking his head and laughing back. "
