Slapping me on the back, my father said, “That’s what I wanted to hear. Get to it, son.”

My father walked away, leaving me alone in my thoughts. Making a vow to myself right there that I would push away any feelings I might have toward Sierra so I could concentrate on this case. I’d work her divorce case with everything I had and the last thing I needed was Sierra as a distraction. Besides, it was clear she was in a relationship with Chris. She was going to south Texas to be with him for fuck’s sake.

Blowing out a sharp breath, I headed back to my office. Walking past the break room, I glanced in and saw Karen making a cup of coffee. Walking in, I shut the door and made my way over to her.

When she turned around, she bit down on her lower lip and smiled. I’d yet to make a move on her and now was the perfect time. Anything to get my mind off of the sweet little piece of ass that just walked away from me. The moment I met Sierra, a spark flew between us but we continued to push each other away.

Pushing my hands through Karen’s long brown hair, I grabbed it and pulled her head back. Letting out a moan, Karen hissed, “Yes.”

Brushing my lips against her lips, I whispered, “Meet me downstairs at six.”

Running my tongue along her lower lip, I bit down on it and sucked it into my mouth as Karen moaned. Letting go of her hair, I turned and headed out of the break room and to my office. Smiling, I could taste the mint from Karen’s gum. Yes, she would serve as a very nice distraction indeed.

STANDING IN FRONT OF THE tall office building, I dragged in deep breath after deep breath. Glancing down to my hands, I attempted to stop them from shaking.

Shit! The last thing I wanted was for Dodge to see how he affected me.

The valet pulled up and parked my Audio Q7 right in front of me as I stared off in the distance.

Dodge thinks I’m with Chris. Holy shit. Dodge thinks I’m dating Chris. Closing my eyes, I tried to figure out what that look on his face was when I mentioned heading to South Texas. For a moment he seemed jealous.

Nah . . . you’re dreaming, Sierra. No way Dodge is interested in you. Is he? Shit!

“Um . . . ma’am? Excuse me, ma’am?”

Snapping out of my thoughts, I turned to the young valet and handed him a twenty. “Thank you,” I mumbled.

Smiling, he nodded his head and said, “Thank you!”

Getting into my car, I closed my eyes and was taken back in time to the moment I first realized I was falling for Dodge Walker.


“Hey, Ryn, Sierra, how are you both doing?”

My heart began pounding the moment I looked up and saw Dodge standing in the Starbucks Ryn and I both practically lived in. Moving my eyes over his body, I slowly licked my lips. Damn he is good looking.

“Oh, hey there, Dodge. Have you always come to this Starbucks?” I asked as Dodge smiled at me and caused my stomach to drop.

Nodding his head, Dodge said, “Yes ma’am.”

Good lord, help me for this man was sex on two legs.

Leaning back in my chair, I raised my eyebrows and said, “Huh. I can’t believe I’ve never seen you here before.”

Dodge’s eyes lit up for a brief moment as he said, “Yeah, same here.”

Dodge glanced between Ryn and me before saying, “It’s good seeing you both. I’ve got a meeting I need to get to, see y’all later.”

Watching him walk away, I took everything in. Holy hell I’d love to wrap my legs around that man and have him take me to heaven and back. Reaching up, I wiped the corner of my lips. Wait. Was I drooling?

Glancing back to Ryn, she smiled and shook her head. “Oh my gosh, you have the hots for Dodge?”

Pulling my head back, I gave her a nervous laugh. “What?”

Pointing to me, Ryn laughed. “You practically undressed him as he walked out the door.”

Brushing Ryn off with my hand, I rolled my eyes and looked away as I attempted to control my beating heart. The last thing I needed was another man who loved to screw the women in my life.

Letting out a sigh, I dropped my head back against my headrest. Ugh. I hate men. I searched for Ryn’s number and hit dial as I pulled out onto Congress Avenue.

“Hey! How did you meeting with the lawyer go? Did you chew their asses out and tell them you wanted a new lawyer on the case?”

Swallowing hard, I chuckled. What are the fucking odds Dodge damn Walker would be my new lawyer? God hates me.

“I think it went well. The new lawyer seems to think we have a good chance. I’m worried he may let his dislike of me affect the case, though.”

Silence. “Huh? What do you mean? How do you know he doesn’t like you?”
