CHAPTER SIX

Mia hoped that nobody noticed how thoroughly infatuated she was with Eric during a meeting the next day. Eric was back in the tough boss mode as he laid down the law with several engineers from the pool construction company.

“We apologize for the delay, sir,” said one of the engineers, “but we’re hoping to have things complete by this Friday.”

“That gives you five days, counting today. The pool inspectors have agreed to come next Monday, and the first guests are expected to arrive next Friday. The pool had better pass inspection, gentlemen,” Eric said sternly.

Mia hardly recognized the formidable man sitting grimly beside her as he spoke to the engineers across from him. She dreamily stared at the screen of her laptop and tried to concentrate on her job, but it was difficult to focus. Too many images of their lovemaking swam in her mind.

The engineers stood and waited for Eric to follow them.

“I’ll be with you in a moment,” Eric said, and watched the men leave the boardroom before he turned to Mia.

“I have to go with them now. Why don’t you take a break, and I’ll meet you later?” Eric asked, looking down at her with a smile.

“All right,” Mia nodded. She stood and gathered her laptop and paperwork. She turned to leave, but he stopped her by cupping her cheeks and giving her a searching kiss. Her internal temperature skyrocketed and she wrapped her arms around his waist.

“Mmm, your lips are so soft,” Eric mumbled against her lips. “I can’t get enough of you.”

“Ditto,” Mia said, closing her eyes as he sucked her lower lip.

“We better stop,” Eric said, releasing her reluctantly. “I’ll see you in an hour.”

Mia sighed heavily and followed him to the door. He gave her bottom a playful spank before they left the boardroom together. She composed her face as she entered the hallway, and nodded at the engineers who were waiting for Eric. She hoped that she didn’t look as heated as she felt.

“Somewhere over the rainbow, bluebirds fly,” sang Kimo while he played his ukulele in the garden area of the hotel.

Mia walked toward him, and he nodded at her. She pulled up a bamboo chair and sat across from him, enjoying his deep baritone voice.

“That was wonderful, Kimo,” she said, clapping her hands when he finished his song.

He took a playful bow and pointed to his ukulele. “Wanna try?”

“No, thank you, I’m not good with string instruments,” she answered. “My mom made me play the violin for five years, and no matter how much I practiced, I sounded like nails on a chalkboard.”

“Thanks for the warning,” Kimo said with a chuckle as he put his feet up on a lounge chair. “I hope that pool problem gets fixed soon, Mia. I’ve got guests checking in next week.”

“I know. Eric is talking to the engineers now,” Mia said, looking up at the swaying palm branches above her.

“If you ask me, it’s all those artificial waterfalls causing the malfunctions.
