Jemma Jones sat in the
coffee shop, stirring her early morning latte. Two days ago, Matt,
her old college boyfriend, had left a message on the office phone,
inviting her for dinner. Since she and her boss, Adam Sinclair, had
just enjoyed a sexy spanking session when the message had come
through on the answering machine, it had made things a tad awkward.
However, she had made it clear to Adam that she wasn’t
interested in having dinner with her ex. But she had to admit that
she was a little curious as to why Matt wanted to see her.

Jemma smiled when she
thought of Adam. Ever since she

d
started working at Sinclair Consulting as his secretary, she

d
privately nicknamed him Mr. Sexy Sinclair. She

d
been attracted to him from the start, and then one day she realized
she

d actually fallen in love with
her boss. It had been hard to conceal her feelings for him for all
that time, especially since her love life had been pretty much in the
doldrums, but everything
had changed two weeks ago when Adam
had invited her to lunch.

At first, Jemma had been
worried she was going to get fired, but when Adam made it clear that
his intentions were romantic, she

d
found it hard to breathe. After all, she had boring light brown,
shoulder length hair, brown eyes, and a girl-next-door face. It
wasn

t as if she was a stunning blond
with big breasts and a look-at-me personality.

But when Adam promised
that if it didn

t work out between
them and they couldn

t work together,
he

d make sure she had at least the
same level of employment elsewhere, she knew this was her chance to
discover if dating her boss matched up to her fantasies.

It was far, far better.

She hadn

t
seen Matt for five years, ever since they had drifted apart once he

d
graduated college. Then, two days ago, he had walked into Sinclair
Consulting, explaining that he was opening his own business
consultancy firm in the area and wanted to introduce himself.

She would never forget
that moment…

At the sound of footsteps
approaching her table, Jemma looked up. Matt stood in front of her,
holding a cup of coffee.
Tall with a slim, wiry
build, auburn hair and an air of braggadocio, his gleaming emerald
eyes captured hers.


Jemma.

He grinned, and she could see why she had once thought that Matt was

the one.

That had been five years ago. She was a little older and wiser now,
and besides, she was in love with Adam.


Matt.

She made a point of looking at her watch.

You

re
five minutes late. I

ve got to get
to the office soon.


Sorry,

he apologized, sitting beside her.

I
underestimated the traffic.

He
reached for her hand.

I can

t
believe we

ve found each other again
after all this time.

Jemma felt a slight tug
of attraction at his touch, but it was nothing compared to the
electric sparks that raced through her whenever Adam touched her.

Matt, it was over between us five
years ago.
” She pulled her hand back.


What
if I said I was a fool to ever let you go, JJ?


Don

t
call me that.

Jemma frowned.


Why
not?


Because
you don

t have the right to call me
that any more. I think you made it pretty clear when you graduated
that you were too busy for a long-distance relationship.

Guilt fleetingly crossed
his face.

I

m
sorry, Jemma. I should have replied to your emails and phone
messages. But my new job required ninety-nine percent of my focus
and I didn

t know how to tell you
that I couldn

t be in a relationship
any more. I didn

t want to hurt your
feelings.


So
instead you just pretended that I - we - never existed.

She stirred her latte, not wanting to look at him.


I admit I was an
ass back then
.
I didn‘t deserve you. But--” he
winked, “we did have some good times together.”
Smirking, he continued, “Let me make it up to you. How about
you come and work for me
as my executive
assistant?

Jemma tightened her grip
on her mug. “
I

ve
got a job.


I

ll
pay you more.


I

m
quite happy with my position, thank you.

Jemma wondered what was going on. Matt didn

t
even know how much she made or that she was dating Adam - not that it
was any of
his
business.


Jemma,
I

m striking out on my own now. I
put in five years with that big firm up north and I know I

ve
got what it takes to be a success with my own consultancy firm. We

d
make a great team.

He tried to
grasp her hand again but she inched it out of his reach.


I

m
not interested, Matt.

She took a
sip of her coffee and then picked up her purse.

I

ve
got to go.”


You
know how good we were together. I want you back, Jemma.

Five years ago, Jemma had
dreamed of this moment. She

d been
heart-broken when Matt had moved one hundred miles away to start his
new job and she

d never heard from
him again, fantasizing night after night that he would re-appear in
her life and beg her to take him back. But now the moment had
arrived, she realized she wasn

t
tempted at all.

She was completely in
love with Adam Sinclair, and although they had only been together for
just over two weeks, it was the best relationship she had ever been
in.


I

m
seeing someone,

she replied softly.


Is
it serious?


Yes.

It was for her. She just wished she had the courage to tell Adam
how she really felt about him.


Lucky
guy.

Matt smiled wryly.

Jemma
- I don

t suppose you could give me
any information on the Walker account.


What?

Jemma sat down again.


The
Walker account. The Walker Group

s
looking for a new business consultancy
firm.


I
know. We

ve started preparing our
pitch.


So
…”
Matt grinned.

I wondered if you
had any useful info you could give me, since I don't have any local
knowledge yet.

Jemma stared at him.

You want me to share Adam

s
information with you?


For
old times’ sake.

He brushed
his hand against hers.

You don

t
want to renew our relationship and you won

t
work for me. Help me out here - please, JJ.

She removed her hand from
the table.

No. I can

t
believe you just asked me that, Matt.

He shrugged.

What

s
the harm? You

d hardly be passing on
state secrets. Just about everyone else who pitches for it will know
what I need to know. We

d just be
leveling the playing field.


There

s
no

we

,
Matt.

Jemma gave him a withering
look.

And there

s
no way I

d steal information from
Adam. He and I are a team.


What
kind of team?

His emerald eyes
gleamed with curiosity and he leaned across the table towards her.

Jemma hastily stood.

None of your business.

She didn

t feel comfortable giving
Matt details of her relationship with Adam. Although it wasn

t
a secret she was dating her boss, that didn

t
mean she felt like giving Matt the specifics.

He chuckled.

It

s
okay, Jemma. I get the picture.

Matt put a hand on her arm to detain her.

But
I want you to know that I

ll do
whatever it takes to win the Walker account, with or without your
help.

####

Jemma fumed on the way to
the office. She couldn

t believe
that Matt

s real reason for wanting
to see her was to glean information from his business rival. But why
was she so surprised? In college, she

d
known he was ambitious, and he had proved it when he

d
taken that lucrative job offer and moved one hundred miles away,
never giving her a second thought.

She shouldn

t
have wasted so many tears on him five years ago, she thought grimly.
At least now, she was smart enough to see through him.

Parking in one of the
spaces set aside for their office and locking the car, she bit her
lip when she noticed that Adam

s car
was already there. Damn - she was late. Should she tell him about
her meeting with Matt or try to forget all about it?
