Chapter Eight

Pepper climbed into Coop’s car. The plan was not working. At all. Which was annoying. Especially since she prided herself on being a skilled organizer. Get a job at a great Seattle law firm by the time she was twenty-five. Done. Buy her own apartment. Easy (well, apart from the fact she’d been forced to sublet it. And let’s not mention the job). But managing to convince Coop she wanted to sleep with him before she went back to her regular life?

Apparently impossible.

She squirmed in her seat and rubbed her brow. The worst thing was, after spending all night hoping it would happen, trying to convince her body she’d failed was proving to be a problem. It was like being on fire. Correction. She was on fire.

“Everything okay?” Coop climbed back into the driver’s seat and started the engine.

A combination of shame and lust rose up into her chest.

“Fine.” She looked straight ahead. “And thank you for a nice dinner. You were right. The food was great.”

“Good,” he said in a polite voice, much like he might to someone he barely knew. Her throat tightened as he turned left. It was in the direction of the farm.

Except if they went back to the farm the evening would be over and she’d spend a sleepless night before flying out in the morning. Her one chance at getting Coop out of her system would be gone.

Why was it so hard? When she and Paul had first started dating, it had been simple. They’d been the last two left at an office function and he’d suggested they share a taxi home since they lived in the same direction. From there he’d invited her in for a nightcap, kissed her before saying they’d make a great team. It had all been done with a businesslike efficiency she’d respected.

Unfortunately, it was no help to her now. Especially since the idea of sleeping with Paul had never left her heart racing. How had she not noticed sooner?

Whereas she seemed to notice everything about Coop. With bionic vision.

And if she didn’t do something, it would all be for nothing. She coughed and fiddled with the next button on her blouse. Undoing one button obviously hadn’t worked, neither had her rushing their orders through to go back to his place sooner.

“You know what?” she said as she continued tugging at the button. Why wouldn’t it undo? “We’ve been celebrating your business, but I’ve never seen it.”

Coop slowed his speed down just a fraction and seemed to stiffen. “What do you mean? I run it at the barn at the farm. You’ve seen the barn before.”

“I haven’t been there since you’ve moved in and started brewing.” Her brow heated up, though she was unsure if it was because she was nervous or hot. The button finally loosened and she used her hand to fan herself down. And what were we talking about? Oh yes. The barn.

“You want to see where I brew beer?” He slowed the car down to the side of the road and came to a stop before turning to her.
