Good Lord the man can kiss. I rubbed my fingers over my lips and smiled. Zane kissed me. Okay, so I kissed him but who’s counting? The fact is he kissed me back and boy oh boy, it was so much better than I’d imagined. I thought about the kiss while I discarded the empty beer bottles. I thought about the kiss while I got ready for bed. I thought about the kiss as I nestled down into my pillows and drifted off to sleep.

The next morning I woke up still on cloud nine. As I lay in bed thinking about the kiss, which was all I could think about, it hit me. I have serious feelings for this man. I sat up and stared at the bathroom door.

“When did this happen?” I asked out loud.

My mind raced ninety to nothing. What should I do? Ignore it? Tell him? Quit? I didn’t want to quit. I liked working for Zane. For the first time in my life I looked forward to each day. Should I talk to him about my feelings? I know he feels something for me, that much is obvious but to what degree? I flopped back on my bed and sighed. Who am I kidding? Zane Mitchell is my boss.

I giggled as I sprinkled cinnamon in the coffee grounds. One day I would tell him my secret. While waiting for the coffee to brew, I cleaned up the kitchen. Zane wasn’t overly messy but he was definitely a single man living alone. I filled his cup and carried it out of the kitchen. His office door was cracked, so I toed it open with the tip of my shoe and slipped inside.

“My assistant?” he asked, and I froze. “She’s working out well.” I smiled and stepped further into the room. “No, she’s definitely not Bethany,” he laughed, and again I froze. “Well, let me put it to you this way, Cathryn is extremely dependable but utterly forgettable.” He followed it with a loud laugh. My heart shriveled in my chest. I stared down at the cup of coffee in my hand. For a second I
