CHAPTER SEVEN

The quick tap on her office door pulled Nicky’s concentration off the report in front of her. Heat flooded her face as she gazed into warm brown eyes devouring every inch of her body.

Her eyes did a little roaming of their own. Sam’s charcoal gray suit looked like it had been molded to his wide shoulders and lean hips. A white shirt and electric blue tie completed the modern executive look, leaving Nicky’s heart rate thudding at his unexpected appearance.

“Wow. Nice suit.” Gripping her pen, she relaxed her face into a friendly smile, desperately hoping her voice didn’t give her overactive hormones away. “Have you got a hot date in the boardroom?”

“Not likely.” He smiled. “We’ve got the official handover of The Oasis development this morning. Amanda and I will be gone until lunchtime and I wanted to thank you for last night.”

Nicky almost melted on the spot. Last night had been a monster test of her willpower. Forcing herself not to drag Sam into her apartment and have her wicked way with him had taken every ounce of grit she possessed. She’d spent most of the night thinking about her dangerous obsession with everything about him. “Are you being serious or teasing me?”

“I mean it. I really enjoyed myself.”

A smile slipped across his face, warming Nicky from the inside out.

“If it hadn’t been for your dinner invitation, I would have spent last night feeling miserable. So, thank you. Next time I’ll cook dinner.”

Nicky knew that wasn’t a good idea. One night of dodging what her body craved was bad enough. Purposely putting herself in the firing line for a third time was plain stupidity.

Sam’s gaze moved down the corridor. “I’ve got to go, Amanda’s waiting for me. I’ll see you later this afternoon.”

The rest of the morning slipped away far too quickly. Meeting the finance team and another project manager took up most of her time. With a few tweaks the flowchart she’d been working on would stop the same issues with the tendering process happening again.

“Are you ready for lunch?”

Nicky blinked at the vision standing in front of her. She felt seriously underdressed. Emily’s red curls were caught in a fancy ponytail on top of her head. The soft aubergine fabric of her dress draped to mid-thigh, hugging her curves in all the right places. The plunging neckline almost matched the non-existent back. Strappy high heels the exact color of her golden tan completed an outfit made to be noticed.

“What are you wearing?” Nicky asked, still not sure the sophisticated creature in front of her was her sister.

Twirling into the room, Emily said, “It’s a halter jersey dress. Do you like it?”

Nicky laughed at the saucy gleam in her sister’s eyes. “You look incredible, but what’s the reason for your flirty dress? And lunch with your sister doesn’t count.”

“Does there need to be a reason?”

Nicky gave her a level stare. Emily always had a reason for everything she did.

“All right, I’ll tell you. But don’t look too obvious when I take you into the café.
