Shar clung to the bathroom doorknob, panting for air. She’d been bleary and out of it this morning, so she’d wandered into the bathroom and showered, not thinking to grab clean clothes. When she’d opened the door and seen Mike in nothing but boxers, and realized she was in nothing but a towel, she’d slammed the door shut again. Now she had no clue what to do, and she felt stupid and immature. Mike had all manner of gorgeous women throwing themselves at him at all times. What would he think of someone like her who could barely look at his glorious chest without having heart palpitations? It wasn’t that she hadn’t seen a man without a shirt on before. It was that Mike was just too perfect and appealing to her.

She waited a few seconds, then squared her shoulders. She could open the door, and if he was still standing there, she’d just say good morning and slip into her bedroom. No big deal.

Easing the door open, she peeked out and about passed out. He was still standing there, in nothing but boxer shorts. Shar’s eyes feasted on his muscular torso, chest, and arms covered with deep brown skin. He was so fascinating that it took a few seconds before her eyes made their way to his face. He was smirking at her.

“Morning, Shar,” he murmured in his deep husky voice.

Shar almost slammed the door again. Instead, she clutched the towel to her to make sure it didn’t slip off and tilted her chin imperiously. “Good morning,” she managed to get out of her suddenly dry throat in a semi-confident tone.

He stepped closer, filling up the doorway and making her wonder how she was going to slip past, or if she even wanted to. What she really wanted to do was touch those lovely-looking muscles on his chest and see what they felt like.

“Any plans today?” he asked.

Shar smiled. “Nope, the schedule has been cleared.” It was an odd feeling: sort of liberating but also kind of scary to have no work and no plans. She worried about her restaurant but was grateful it was off-season, knowing her staff could handle it.

“If we can talk our Nazi bodyguards into it, do you want to go on a hike through the forest?”

Her eyes flickered down to his chest again. “Maybe we should put some clothes on first.”

Mike chuckled. “I can see the wisdom in that.”

“Don’t want poison ivy on my bare …” She stopped herself.

Mike’s eyebrows lifted, and his voice became even huskier than usual. “No, we wouldn’t want that.”

She started forward, but he didn’t give her much space. Brushing her arm against his bare chest, she heard him pull in a quick breath. Heat flushed through her, and she hurried into her bedroom and shut the door. Hopefully, the stalker got caught soon because she had no clue how she was going to survive in such close proximity to that perfect man. Her hero-worship from college on up was being taken to new levels as she got to know him better.
