“What happened last night—”
“Will happen again,” Braden finished. “The pace we set is up to you, but the end result is inevitable.”
Zara shifted to face him. “I need this job.”
“I assumed so, that’s why I hired you.” Well, one of the reasons.
“And the job has nothing to do with what’s going on between us.”
“Nothing is going on,” she all but yelled. “Nothing can go on. Not while I’m working for you.”
“Fine. You’re fired.”
Zara glared at him. “That’s ridiculous.”
“I always get what I want, Zara.”
“And you’re that desperate for a bedmate?”
Leaning forward, his fingertips found the side of her face, stroking down to her neck where she trembled. “No. Just you.”
“Why?” she whispered.
“Why not?” he retorted.
His hand came up to cup the side of her face. He stroked her lip as his other hand cupped the back of her head. A soft sigh escaped her.
“You’re not thinking work right now, are you? You’re concentrating on my touch, on how you want more.”
“What are you doing to me?”
“Proving a point.”

This book is for you, Stacy!

The second her ex’s fingers closed around her arm, Zara Perkins jerked from the firm grasp. “I’m not dancing, I’m working.”
Having Shane Chapman show up at the biggest job she’d ever taken on for the most prestigious family she’d ever worked for was just her luck. She prided herself on her business, on doing everything in her power to make her clients’ parties the event they hired her for. And Shane could ruin it all.
“You’re such a tease,” he mocked, the whiskey on his breath repugnant. “I saw you looking at me.”
Sure, with disdain when she realized he was in attendance. She’d rather walk barefoot over shards of glass than let his arms wrap around her. Zara prayed Shane would go away. This was a new job, a job she desperately needed. The last thing she wanted to do was have to defend a man she had the misfortune of dating a few times.
“Dance with me.”
The low, demanding words sent shivers through her body. Zara knew without turning around who would be behind her...her new employer and rumored-to-be corrupt business mogul Braden O’Shea.
With Shane directly in front of her and Braden behind her, Zara was literally stuck in the exact predicament she didn’t want to be in on her first big night of working for the O’Sheas. But right now, she was bracketed by two powerful men. One she wanted nothing to do with and the other set her heart racing as only a mysterious, intriguing man could do. The few times she’d been in his office had been a bit difficult to concentrate. Braden O’Shea exuded authority, control and sex appeal.
Humiliation flooded her at the idea that Braden had to intervene. She was here in a professional capacity. Having her ex confront her was not exactly showcasing the reputation she’d
