"Coming" Emma yelled as she walked to open the front door to let Karen in. Her apartment was well furnished. It had three bedrooms, two bathrooms, a kitchen and a balcony. Karen always said that the only thing that was missing from the apartment was the presence of a guy. Like his shirts, perfume and stuff. All Emma had done was roll her eyes as usual. She opened the door and Karen walked in."That's what you're wearing" Karen said looking her up and down like she had clown make up on. "Come on Emma, it's your first date with this guy""So?""So you are supposed to wear something that makes him wow. Something that makes him not want to take his eyes off you""You mean something slutty" Emma said"Not too slutty" Karen replied "You should know what I mean""Well I know what you mean" said Emma. " I'm not in the mood for all that. And to be honest I would have changed my mind if I had

"Jerk" Karen yelled as she stormed into Emma's apartment. Emma looked up from the book she was reading. "Well hello to you too Karen, please come in" she said sarcastically. "What's the matter?. You look like you're about to punch someone" "It's nothing. Just Frank and I had a little disagreement" "Oh just that" said Emma "What do you mean just that?" "Please. We both know you're gonna go back there or he's gonna come over here in like two minutes and you guys are gonna make up" "Yeah kinda" Karen said smiling "You guys are so lucky. Having some thing that beautiful" Emma dropped the book she was reading. "And speaking of beautiful things. I wanted to ask you something about that guy I met at Frank's place the other day. A week ago. I think his name was Daniel" One of Karen's devilish smiles appeared on her face. The kinda smile she usually had on her face when she had one of her annoying ideas. "You think? You THINK his name was Daniel?" she asked while sitting up. "Can you

Everything should've been fine. Emma thought as she walked to the kitchen. Everything would have been fine—if not for one Daniel Rohan. Hot, attractive Daniel Rohan.It was funny and annoying at the same time, how he had just walked into her life and suddenly occupied so much of her thoughts. Funny how she thought she had control over her feelings and found herself at loss for words when she was around him. And what was all that about. She asked herself. Losing her temper with him like that. She didn't know she cared so much about the rights of the waitstaff. She might as well admit it to herself now. She was jealous. The thought of him flirting with some other girl pissed her off. And he probably did it a lot. Judging from the way he was so good at it. He obviously knew how to make a woman feel wanted. And damn.. She wanted him.Smoky desire coiled in her belly. She set the almost empty tray on one of the stations and pressed a fist to h

Emma groaned. Her phone ringing this early morning was so not what she needed. And it better not be a work call. The last thing she needed now was to have to go to work on a Saturday. Besides after getting that account for Reddings plc. They should have let her get some days off.She picked up her phone and checked the caller ID. It was her mom."Hi mom. Good morning" she said"Hi honey" her mom said. "You sound grumpy. Did I wake you?."Yes you did mom. But it's okay. How are you? ""I'm fine honey. How's work?. Did you get that account you told me about?." Oh yes mom. I did " Emma replied remembering the annoyingly irresistible guy the account came with."I knew you would get it. You were always such a smart young lady"Emma smiled. No one believed in her like her mom did. "How's Uncle Ken and Aunt Jen?""They are fine. I'm glad

Large hands looped around her waist and urged her to fit closely to the cradle of his lean hips. Long fingers spanned the swell of her hips and dipped low to the base of her spine.Automatically, her hands found his forearms. Hair roughened flesh warmed her fingertips. She tilted her head back to look up at his tanned face. His eyes gleamed down at her as his fingers etched a heated trail up her backbone. One big hand slid beneath her long, tumbled curls to encircle her slender neck. A callused thumb rested momentarily on the throbbing pulse in her throat."Hello beautiful" he said softly. "Here we are.. Again"She smiled. "Here we are" acutely aware of the heat of his body. Somewhere her brain questioned the audacity of her lips and her vanishing inhibitions as her palms sought and found the width of his shoulders.He guided her into an intricate dance routine. When she followed him easily, he said, "I was right. Y
