Chapter 13

Sandra huffed out a breath and swung her legs over the side of the bed as she sat up. She’d tried to sleep last night, but after a full day of thinking about Master Brent without even a text message, her frustration had kept her wide awake and endlessly replaying their scene from Saturday night over and over inside her head. Which definitely hadn’t helped her sleep.

And now he was picking her up in a few hours for a job interview, and she most likely looked like hell. Time to see what a brisk shower, some hot coffee, and some damage-control makeup could do.

An hour later she was downstairs, excitement coursing through her veins at the possibilities the day before her might hold.

When the knock sounded against the door frame, she jumped and let out an embarrassing squeak. She couldn’t remember being this excited to have someone pick her up before. She wondered if this would have been what it felt like to be picked up by a prom date back in high school. Because of her home issues she had never accepted any high school dates, and she’d always felt she had missed out by not attending her proms.

She opened the door and drank in the pure male beauty that was Master Brent. He wore black dress slacks and a hunter-green button-down shirt that looked made for him from the way it lovingly caressed his sculpted torso and muscular arms. He was clean-shaven, and it took great effort not to reach up and run her fingers over his smooth, sculpted jaw. But she didn’t need to be distracted this early in the day. She had important matters to take care of.

“Good morning, Sandra.” His voice was gravelly and deep, that sexy male morning voice that sent shivers over her skin.

“Good morning.” She held her arms out to her sides. “Will this outfit do?” Her silky A-line skirt fell sensuously around her calves, and she’d chosen a matching top with a tasteful V-neck and a three-quarter-length sleeve, since the heat was already strong, even this early in the morning. Michelle had insisted that business dress in Arizona definitely took the hotter climate into account, but there was still a part of her that worried she was underdressed.

“You look amazing.” His thorough gaze raked over her from head to toe, and she sucked in a small breath at the almost physical sensation that look left in its wake. “I forgot to remind you that what passes for business dress in New York is very different from here. But it looks like you’ve adapted seamlessly.”

Brent opened the front passenger door of a blue-gray BMW and helped her inside before lightly closing the door behind her.

The soft leather seats sighed as she slid in easily with the silky material of her skirt. She stretched out her legs, thankful for the roomy car, and also for the cold blast of air from the AC vent in front of her.

She wasn’t overly tall, but her long legs made it tough to get comfortable in a lot of cars and total hell on plane flights.
