Lynn Jennings rested one hand on Jessie Sterling's shoulder and used the other to tilt up her chin. "How is this my fault? You're just too inexperienced."
Jessie Sterling had a crush on Julian Grant in high school, so she never really had the chance to notice anyone else. Later, even when she went abroad, parties and galas were nothing more than fashion shows to her.
She loved attending parties and galas—any occasion where she could put on her favorite jewelry and a beautiful gown.
But her enjoyment was limited to wearing her favorite clothes and gorgeous, expensive jewelry while she ate and drank, like a proud little peacock determined to show off her feathers to the world.
As for what came after the parties and banquets, Jessie Sterling was never interested.
Rather than having a one-night stand with some random handsome guy, she much preferred sleeping in her own familiar king-sized bed, snuggled up in her soft, high-quality sheets, drifting off to sleep in her own space.
