The second night he arrived before her. Wearing jeans and tee again—the casual outfit emphasizing his flat abs, long legs, and a butt meant for grabbing. Libby inwardly groaned. Spending four hours in his presence last night had been hard enough. She’d tried not to look at him too much but it was difficult when he kept chatting and laughing and being the ultimate in charming. She’d hardly slept. Remembering his smile, his gentle teasing, his quick wit.

Every interaction sharpened her attraction like long strokes of a knife on steel—the pull tightened her nerves and pushed her towards succumbing to the heat. She sighed, trying to push out the tension and gather her self-control. She didn’t want to have to walk away from this opportunity with the kitchen. She wanted to do something with her life—to help someone, lots of people ideally. She wanted to give something to society. Because she wouldn’t fall in love. She wouldn’t have a family. She’d make a contribution, a difference in another way. Helping Tom would be something. Getting her product back on the shelves would be something more. It was a healthy option. People might benefit and that would be wonderful.

But Jack made her think about other things—intimacies and personal pleasures that she’d denied herself for a long time. She didn’t want to open up that part of herself to someone so overpowering. She had the fear she’d ended up giving him far more than she’d ever intend to.

“If you’re going to insist on staying here while I work, the least you can do is make yourself useful,” she said firmly, deciding to take control of the situation tonight. There’d be no swapping secrets or life stories—or worse, flirting.

“I have my own work to do, thanks,” he held up his tablet.

“Do you have to do it here?” Why couldn’t he leave her to get on with it and come back to lock up at a fixed time? Instead he was a complete distraction—and she was the one unable to control her own mind and impulses…

“Yeah. I do.” Mr. Uncompromising.

Because he still didn’t trust her? Or because…

“Does my being here bother you?” he asked.

She swallowed. “Of course not. I just thought if you have work to do…”

“I can do what I need to here.”

She shouldn’t have started this conversation, it was going nowhere anyway. He just being all immovable man. Damn. Because just looking at him had her coming over hot and bothered and...wanting.

“You don’t have a business partner?” he asked once she was underway.

“No,” she said, thankful for the conversation to distract her from her treacherous hormones. “My uni friends love my muesli but they think I’m mad for putting so much into it.”

“Any sort of success requires sacrifice at some level,” he said. “Is that why you’ve no boyfriend?”

She looked at him, trying to stay cool. “Possibly.”

“There must be an endless queue though.”

“There’s no need for the flattery.” She tried to shut the topic down. “I’m making enough muesli to last Tom ten years.
