Fiona POV“Miss!” Someone calls out from behind me as I stumble away. I push out of the door and walk away, not bothering to answer the person calling for me.Everything blurs around me as I move toward town.Andy, the man I loved, married someone else.When I can’t walk any further, I slump onto a
Fiona POVHe’s mesmerizing.I can’t tear my eyes off him even if I wanted to, which might seem weird, but after today, I let myself go a bit. My eyes wander his body, taking in the handsome face with sharp angles, the heat in his bright eyes, and wide shoulders that just scream for someone to be thr
Fiona POVGrabbing the letter, I hurry back inside and tear it open.“Dear, Ms. Davis.Thank you for your interest. We have received your background and qualifications and regret to inform you we are not able to offer you the position….”I don’t bother reading any further because after the twenty-fi
Fiona POVPulling the jacket closer around me, I soak in the warmth as my head begins to ache. This is probably the worst thing that could’ve happened at a new job, and of course, it happened to me. I thought I’d never see Nolan again, but here he is, firing a woman who threw coffee on me and wrappi
Fiona POVAndy doesn’t move from the doorway when he spots us, his eyes jumping back and forth between me and Nolan. Part of me wants to crawl into myself and hide while the other, angrier part, wants to lean into Nolan and show Andy that I’ve moved on from his lying, cheating ass.I know what he se
It’s almost peaceful.Or it was, until a hand slaps down on my desktop.“Did you chase me here just to get my attention?” Andy asks, leaning into my personal space. I try to roll my chair back, but his free hand grabs the back of it, forcing me to stay put. Honestly, I’m surprised he took the initia
Fiona POVNo, it couldn’t be. King Nolan just warned me sternly that our relationship is strictly professional. Not personal.I calm down and open the message’s attached document and nearly gasp at the list of a hundred things to do as Nolan’s personal secretary. There are so many tasks on the list,
Something clatters behind me, and I jump.“Get in the car, Fiona.”I turn and look at Nolan then at Nate, wondering if I’d imagined Nolan’s voice.Instead of arguing, I pull the back door open and climb in. There’s no way I’m standing out here in the dark while waiting to be jumped or worse. I’ll ta
Fiona POVLeaning back, I let my body sink beneath the hot water. I soak in the vanilla rose scent, letting the warm and calming bath relax my tense muscles. Since it’s Saturday, I don’t have to worry about anything related to work, and I can just relax.I haven’t had a lot of time to just breathe a
Fiona POVOpening my eyes, I blink against the sunlight coming through the windows. The white ceiling above me rub at my eyes. Where the heck am I? My ceiling is a gross grey color and has weird water stains on it.I gasp, my breath coming in and out too quickly.Unease hits me, and I sit up, lookin
Fiona POVI hurry away from my desk before Nolan can call me to eat lunch with him. For the last three days, he’s found reasons to bring me to his office or out of the building for lunch. Yesterday, we met at his house during lunch time to deal with a party issue.Even though I keep trying to avoid
Fiona POVMaybe I should have waited for the bus.Originally, I hadn’t wanted to wait for the delayed vehicle, and again, I didn’t want to pay for a taxi. Taxi costs have been so high lately that usually, I would rather walk. Everything was fine when I started walking away from the company. There we
Fiona POV“Can I help you, sir?”When I enter, he motions me toward him and turns his computer screen my way as I stop beside his desk.“Which of these letter heads looks more professional for our company?”Did he seriously just ask that?Confusion and annoyance bubble up inside me, and I bite my to
Fiona POVStay away from Nolan. Stay away from Nolan. Stay away from Nolan. I keep the mantra on repeat in my head as I work. He’s probably still angry from last night, and with the confusion I feel and the rejection, I don’t exactly want to be anywhere near Nolan. He acted like the kiss wasn’t h
Fiona POVI try so hard to maintain my composure. I’m sure Nolan wouldn’t appreciate me melting into a puddle at his feet, so I take a deep, calming breath because if I don’t, I think my heart will jump right out of my chest.“Isn’t that actress your girlfriend? You should be taking her to the party
Nolan’s jaw ticks as he turns his gaze on me, “The meeting has been moved up, so I need these done tonight. You can take them to your desk and sort them.”With that, he takes a seat at his desk, turns his computer on, and waves me off. I sigh and scoop up the pile of papers while wobbling out to my
Fiona POVI sober up pretty quickly after Tara’s rude words and disgusted sneers. Her outward attitude toward me is so different than how she acts toward Nolan, and it makes me want to puke.Through the mirror, I notice that she touches him a lot. Actually, she touches him entirely too much for my l
