Chapter 11

            Scott, Clay, and Regina had just finished dessert. The guys had gobbled up the food like they hadn’t eaten in days. Normally, she would have leftovers for two days. Not with Scott and Clay. Both of them had two helpings. Scott had two pieces of cake.            They walked to the living room.            “So, Clay, what do you want to do now?” she asked.            “Do you have a PlayStation?”            “No, but I think I got something just as good. Let’s go downstairs.”            Scott’s eyebrow kicked up.      &nbs

Chapter 12

            Regina was excited about her date with Scott tonight. She had actually gone to the mall to see if she could find a new outfit. She ended up bringing four bags full of clothes home.            Scott and his men had finished working for the day. She had stood out on her front porch and waved goodbye to them. Scott winked at her as he got in his truck. She giggled like a teenager, which surprised her.            As she nervously looked at her new outfits in her bedroom, she felt like she was going out on her first date ever. She finally decided to wear a purple sundress with straps that curved behind her neck, making her breasts look bigger than they were, to her delight. She had thought about getting implants in the past, but she never got around to really investigating the procedure.&nb

            Regina looked good enough to eat. He took her to Benihana. Under normal circumstances, he would have taken her to Norman’s at The Ritz Carlton, but he was afraid someone would recognize him there and expose his adopted persona. In the past, he had frequented the restaurant at least once a week.            They had enjoyed the food, but they were full as ticks. They decided to take a walk. Regina curled her arm under Scott’s, which made him feel good. It made him feel wanted.            “So, did you always want to be in construction?”            “I did. My dad was a contractor. He’s retired now, but he taught me everything I know. I’m carrying that tradition on with Clay, but I’m hopin

Chapter 14

            Scott sat at the bar nursing a fresh beer. He wasn’t sure what was going on. Perhaps Regina hadn’t told her friends that she was going out with him tonight. He knew women. They’d be in that bathroom for at least ten minutes. Scott raised his glass to take a sip of his beer.            “Scott! Scott Kelly!”            He choked on his drink at the sound of his birth name being yelled in the air. Shit, who is that? He coughed as he turned around to see Bart Guthrie. He was a swamp lizard from New Orleans who had a house in NOLA and a house around the Glades in Florida. Scott wiped his mouth with his hand as Bart approached him. He had a young girl on each arm. They were both blondes.

            One month later . . .             Her backyard was almost finished. Scott wanted to do the finishing touches without her being there. He had said he wanted it to be a surprise. He paid for her to have a spa weekend at Acqualina Resort and Spa in Sunny Isles Beach. Regina had protested because she didn’t want him to spend that much money on her. She knew Scott did well as a contractor, but the resort was extremely expensive; most of their rooms ran between twelve hundred to sixteen hundred dollars a night. It wasn’t like he was a millionaire, but he had insisted that he could afford it, and he wanted to do something special for her.            The sun was starting to set. Regina maneuvered her BMW around Scott’s truck and pulled into her garage. Scott was

            One month later . . .             Scott had invited his father over for lunch with him, Clay, and Regina. However, his father would only come if Regina was cooking. She had been happy to fix lunch. She prepared turkey club sandwiches with homemade fries and fresh lemonade. She had also baked a cheesecake for dessert.            They had eaten out on the back deck. It was seventy-six degrees, and there was a light breeze.            “Sweetheart, I’m so full I don’t think I’ll eat dinner tonight,” Scott’s father said. “Damn good lunch. Nice to see that Scott and little Clay weren’t exaggerating about your chef skills.”     &nb

Chapter 17

Kat Evans slammed her front door. She was sick and tired of men using her, toying with her, and then brushing her off like she was a gnat. At that moment, she realized that her mother had been right all along. Men were good for nothing. She stomped to the den. To think she had gone over there to tell Scott that she was attracted to him – that she was crazy about him and his son. She should have known that someone like him thought he could do whatever he wanted to anybody he wanted. She plopped down in the wood chair behind the old rickety desk that had drink rings all over it. She opened the portfolio book that was full of newspaper clippings, magazine articles, and pictures of Scott Jenkins, a.k.a. Scott Kelly.She had learned his real identity last year by accident. Kat had been taking a business class at the local community college to learn how to expand her jewelry business on Etsy. The class required Kat to turn in a report on a self-made entrepreneur.

            One week later . . .             Regina, Mika, Rachel, and Lisa were having afternoon coffee and refreshments in Regina’s den. They were having some girl talk when the doorbell rang.            Regina was surprised to see Scott when she opened the door. “Hi.”            “Hey,” he said with his infamous smirk. “I know you said you were spending time with your friends this afternoon, but I had to swing by to see you. Oh, and to get one of these.” Scott quickly pulled her against his hard body and pressed his lips down on hers.Their arms encircled each other as they hungrily kissed. Scott kissed her like she was the only woman in the world, and she loved it. They

            Ten minutes. Ten minutes on television had changed their lives. Scott had called his driver and changed into a suit his butler put in the back of the limo for him. He was speaking to the headmaster in his office.            “The police escorted the photographer away, Mr. Kelly. We have had children of the rich and famous attending our school for over fifty years, and nothing like this has ever happened,” Headmaster Morris expressed with deep regret.            “I know that, and I understand,” Scott said seriously.            “The police officers put the photographer in the back of their squad car. At the most, we can only press charges for trespassing.”    &nb

            The next morning . . .             Regina and Mika were having breakfast in a small café in downtown Orlando. The cappuccino was to die for, and the breakfast bagel really hit the spot.            “Thanks for bringing me here,” Regina said.            “No problem. I figured I owed you a treat since I got you mixed up with Scott,” Mika said. “If it’s any consolation, I feel like a fool, too. I can’t believe that . . . wow.”            “It’s not your fault. Scott did a good job being someone he wasn’t.”          &nb
