Chapter Six

Mandy woke with what felt like cotton balls in her mouth. She flung her arm over her face to block out the dim light filtering through the curtains. Why did she feel like such crap? As her body and mind began to wake, she felt the pull of sore muscles in her legs, and in other places too, muscles that hadn’t been used in a very long time.

Holy cow. She sat straight up in bed. Bad idea, she realized, as she got lightheaded. Skipping dinner and drinking beer was never a good idea. It led to things like hangovers and sex with hot cowboys. Too bad she remembered that a little too late.

Mandy didn’t know what was worse, her hangover or the fact that she’d had sex with Jared Gordon. Shit. She couldn’t believe she’d broken her own rule and mixed business with pleasure. Very, very nice pleasure, but against her personal rules nonetheless. She’d only intended on flirting, not actually having sex with him—a fact she’d conveniently forgotten while drinking and aiming her foot at his crotch.

As she stumbled to the bathroom Mandy made a vow never to drink on an empty stomach again. She noted she wasn’t vowing to herself never to have sex with Jared again. Interesting. Or maybe not. If her fuzzy brain remembered accurately, it had been incredible.

Of course it should have been great. After all, he was one unbelievably attractive specimen. In Los Angeles so often the reality didn’t live up to the illusion created by the exterior packaging. No false advertising here though. In Jared’s case, what you see is what you get, and what she gotten had been very, very good.

Mandy had to stop thinking of him and the possibility of a repeat of last night. She’d done a very bad thing getting physical with him. In a business where far too many women used sex to make their way to the top, she had vowed never to do so. It had cost her in her job too. On at least one occasion that she knew of, she’d been passed over for a less qualified bimbo who wasn’t opposed to sweating up the casting couch with an executive.

Now that she was finally in a good place in her career, she still couldn’t afford to compromise her morals. No worries. Last night with Jared would be just that. One night. That wasn’t any sort of vow, just the cold hard reality of the situation. She’d pissed him off at the bar and he still hated the idea of the show. In fact, he’d reminded her enough times how angry he was at her all throughout the incredible sex. At least during the beginning. Neither one of them had managed many words after they’d really gotten into it.

Just thinking about it had the tension building low in her abdomen. Apparently sex with Jared was like eating Chinese food. It wasn’t very long before you were hungry for more.

Sighing, she realized she would just have to get over losing Pigeon Hollow and use her second choice.
