“And, with a gorgeous date, no less,” he said, cocky as ever But his grin slipped as he asked in a quelling tone, “So, you two have nothing going on, right?”

“Of course not! There’s nothing of the sort between us We’re just boss and assistant Besides, I doubt he’s into black woine it’s the sauys”

“But I’m white”

“You don’t count You’re just like a brother Si to date rossed out and hter

“Come on Let’s just enjoy the delicious food and wine This could be our last tiether for months at a tilass for a toast

Sheri didn’t want to think of the time Guy wouldn’t be there when she needed him But she was proud of his achieveazine as editor-in-chief The contract was for a few months, with an option to be renewed She decided to look on the bright side and learn to do without him for a while

What she couldn’t explain was the strange exchange that had taken place just o with Dean It would have been aard, but so situation when Dean’s date had dragged him away

Was Guy right? Was there so her? Sheri could never be sure, but it did give her a strange treaze She’d be a fool to read anything into it because she was just his executive assistant and nothing like the women he favored with his attentions

The next time they met at work, she vowed to be at her professional best – the same Sherita Wilson that had done so well at her job that she’d coer than Dean’s past assistants

Whatever flutters she had fro Dean so rando she wanted was to jeopardize everything she’d worked so hard to build

Dean couldn’t recall losing this much sleep over a female Certainly not one he’d placed under his employ – namely, Sheri

She presented herself with such a professional stance, it had almost passed his notice how hard it would nor woman

But over the past few months, he had been determined to do so and as such, had been impressed with the way she always stepped up and tackled every work assignment admirably

His field of expertise was financial technology, or “fintech” as it idely known, and he’d launched his own startup seven years ago with innovative concepts that continued to evolve, keeping hiaoals, and the challenges of ensuring he stayed sharp and relevant in his chosen niche But now, here is a new, different and exciting challenge…

Sheri Wilson was so much the hard worker that it was rare for Dean to let hile in her curves and the sexy scent of her perfuh a few times for him to catch a hint of her hot, wildly feuard – but only for a htly beneath her blouse or how a hint of her dewy brown skin would stay visible through the open neck of her top as she bent over while showing hi in the file on his desk, he’d never let himself dwell on how much of a woman she was, inside and out

Mostly, more woman than he was used to and admittedly of a different “flavor” than he’d ever encountered, but there was no denying she was a very alluring feht ht at the restaurant

First off, he’d never pictured her as being into white guys He’d always iined someone like her would be on the conservative side,to his cultural bracket Secondly, Dean hadn’t expected to see her looking so damned hot

Her green dress had been low cut enough to show the tops of her gorgeous dusky cleavage He could tell the outfit jealously hugged her every luscious curve even as she sat Her beautiful doe-shaped brown eyes had been fringed with thick dark lashes and some smoky, mysterious makeup that ith the equally sexy deep red shade of her lipstick Fuck, those lips Never had a ine those red-coated full lips crushed against his or even wrapped around his erect member

Dean swore out loud as he stared up at the ceiling, hands folding behind his head while he stayed laid out in bed He couldn’t stop thinking about her sultry sedwith hi over his executive assistant?
