CHAPTER SEVEN

Every time Aubrey looked at him, all she could see was his big hand on her breast or the way his eyes darkened when he was aroused. She should have nixed it the instant he’d laid his mouth on hers, but his kiss had been addictive. If he hadn’t stopped, they would have ended up having sex in the front seat of her car. And then what? Getting personally involved with Brian Callahan was the biggest mistake of her professional career. The past week had been awkward, at least for her. He, on the other hand, acted as if nothing had happened. Maybe for him, nothing had.

After a three game home series, the Bucks had gone back on the road to North Carolina to play a team out of Durham, and this time Aubrey had stayed back in Mimosa Key. For one thing, she needed some space. The temptation to sleep with him was just too great. And now that she knew the streaking incident had been to protect his friend’s reputation, she trusted him to behave himself. He didn’t need a baby sitter. He was more motivated than anyone to lay low and get back to his regularly scheduled life.

It was Monday morning and she needed to check in at the office, so she finished getting dressed, locked the door to her apartment and drove her usual route through Mimosa Key. Business was still slow. Felicity’s mother, who owned the Sunshine Emporium, a tourist shop down the street, had requested they create an ad to run in the local paper. The project was pro bono, but it would provide some much needed exposure.

And there was still the Barefoot Brides campaign. Aubrey had filled Felicity in with the behind the scenes wedding info and it had inspired Felicity to go in a slightly different direction for her second presentation. Jack had proven himself helpful and used his connections to find out the name of the PR firm they were competing with. The firm was headquartered in Fort Lauderdale and huge, so of course they had a contact at Brides magazine, and probably most other publications as well. How was their little upstart firm supposed to compete with that?

The last time they’d talked to Willow, she said they’d make a decision within the next few weeks. Aubrey had the sinking feeling that the three of them, Willow, Gussie and Ari, had hearts that wanted to go with Reed and Adams, but their heads told them to go with the big firm and, frankly, she wouldn’t blame them. After all, business was business.

She pulled into the Super Min and filled her Jeep with gas, paying at the pump the way she normally did. On the other side of the pump was an empty passenger van with the logo Sun Coast Assisted Living. The driver noticed her staring at the vehicle. “Hey there,” he said, giving her a friendly smile. He was young, maybe in his mid-twenties.

“Hi, yourself.” She thought she knew all the local businesses in Mimosa Key, but she hadn’t been aware of this one.
