“Let me take you down to your office,” I say, threading my arm around her and making the very bad mistake of touching her.
The blast of desire as my palm takes her arm has us both locking gazes one more.
Fuck.
This is going to be a long three months.
CHAPTER FIVE
GEMMA
––––––––
Drew Carrington runsa tight ship.As promised, he’s mostly left me to run my team from the OCP offices, and I do that for the first two weeks.
There are lots of questions by the Open Leaf management team that remain, but I don’t have answers for them.
So we simply do our jobs every day and then go home.
True to his word, a number of store visits have landed in my calendar, but Drew hasn’t attended them.I rarely see him.
It’s both a relief and creates a sense of tension after the first day.The chemistry between us was out of this world.I’ve never experienced anything like it.
It’s almost like I’ve imagined it.
I hope I have.
I ended up telling Belinda, my sister, about it.Of course, she googled him.
“Jeeeesus Christ, the man is hawt!”she cried.“Introduce me.”
“No.He’s my boss right now and bought Open Leaf.”
“Yes.He’s rich.Introduce me.”
“I just told you I was having fantasies about him, Belinda!”
