Harley arrived on set early after receiving a digital copy of the revised script to her email just before she left the hotel and spent the drive to Carter’s warehouses reading it over. By the time the car stopped, Harley’s cheeks were burning. They’d definitely amped up the romance between her and Carter’s character compared to what it had been with Mila and Damon.

She found Carter right away standing with some of the stunt crew looking as though he fit right in. And not just physically, although, that was certainly true. They were talking and laughing. She stopped beside her chair and pretended to read through the script as she listened to their conversation.

“Yeah, man, before last year it had been more than a decade since someone punched me. That first night at the gym, I thought I was going to die,” Carter said. The other guys doubled over with laughter. It didn’t help matters when Carter kept going. “Dude, I’m serious. It hurt so bad. Dom, my trainer, laughed just like you guys are doing right now. I swore up and down I was never going to go back.”

Jason Mercer, the stunt coordinator, grinned knowingly. “Let me guess, you showed up the very next night?”

Carter nodded. “Early. He just kept punching me. Made me mad. I promised myself I wouldn’t stop until I could get Dom on the ground.”

“How long did it take?” one of the other stunt guys, Alec asked.

Carter smirked. “Still going. Every night.”

“Oh!” they all exclaimed, laughing.

“Man, that’s messed up!”

“Who is this Dom guy, anyway?”

“Here we thought you were a good fighter!”

Harley grinned. Carter took their ribbing well, laughing with them instead of getting offended.

“Dude, Dom is the man. He fought professionally for ten years.”

Jason’s brow creased. “Dom what? Have we heard of him?”

“Maybe. His name is Hedges. Dominick Hedges.”

The stunt guys stopped laughing.

“Man, are you serious? You train with Dominick ‘The Brick’ Hedges? That guy is a legend.”

“Yeah, well, his fists are. They don’t call him ‘The Brick’ for nothing.” Carter rubbed his chin for effect.

Harley couldn’t help but think he’d won these guys over in thirty minutes while Brent still couldn’t remember any of their names. Jason’s lip curled with disgust anytime Brent walked into the room.

“Oh. Hey, Harley’s here. Let’s get to work.” Jason slapped Carter on the back and the two of them made their way over to her while the rest of the guys stayed where they were still talking and laughing.

“What’s up, Harls?” Jason held out his fist for knuckles.

“You’re awful cheerful at seven in the morning.”

Jason pumped his arms over his head like he lifted weights. “Endorphins.”

Harley shook her head and tried not to stare at Carter. He’d shown up to work in a tight grey t-shirt and jogging pants. His dark blonde hair stuck up in every direction as though he’d just washed it and walked away. Which he probably had since the stylists were going to change everything anyway.

He looked handsome.

“What kind of torture do you have planned for us today?” Jason was the one in charge of choreographing all of the action shots.
