I arrive forty-five minutes later in front of Brooks, Gamble and Bennett. The elevator doors open to the fourth floor and I step out, making my way to reception. The woman behind the desk appears to be in her late forties with sandy blonde hair styled neatly in a bun. She is on a call, gesturing with her finger that she will be with me in a second.

“Can I help you?” she asks a moment later in a warm, pleasant tone.

After I tell her that Liam is expecting me, she makes a quick call, then says, “Follow me.” She leads me down a hallway past several offices on either side. She turns a corner and stops in front of a door with the name Liam Bennett etched into a shiny silver name plate. “Go on in, Ms. Reeves. Liam is expecting you.”

I thank her, then knock gently. “Come in.” His voice is low and rumbly. I push the door open to find Liam sitting behind his desk, a stack of paperwork laid out before him. He looks impressive here, in his element. His hair is perfectly styled. His piercing eyes sweep over me. He radiates power and control, his stormy energy coursing through the room.

I smile as I take him in. It’s impossible not to. He’s so damn easy on the eyes. He returns the smile in my direction, his dimple catching my eye like it always does.

“Close the door behind you,” he says coolly, pushing up from his seat and walking around to the front of his desk. I shut the door like he asked me to as he takes a seat on the edge of his desk. “Get over here.”

He’s wearing another one of his Liam-y suits. This one also looks like it cost a fortune. It fits him just right. Liam in a suit is my absolute weakness.

I stand in front of him, lunch in my hands. “How’s your day going?”

“It’s better now,” he smiles, taking the lunch bag from my hands, placing it on the desk beside him. He studies my face.

“You seem tense,” I tell him. “It doesn’t look like your day has been easy.”

“That might be because I’ve been busy all morning sticking it to the bad guys.” He smirks. “I think that was your perception of what happens in this office, if my memory serves me correct.”

“Well, isn’t it true?”

“Of course.”

“You don’t fool me.”

“I don’t?” he asks with a smile that shows off his perfect white teeth.

“I’m getting to know the real you. You aren’t the intense, cantankerous man you like people to believe you are,” I say, fiddling with the collar of his crisp white shirt. Our chests are so close they’re almost touching.

“Huh,” he says, looking amused. He reaches for a loose strand of my hair and tucks it behind my ear. It’s not enough. I want him to touch me. Liam knows how to touch a woman.

“I like this the most, you know,” I say, running the tips of my fingers over the buttons of his dress shirt.
