Alexis snuggled up against Jimmy’s warm naked chest. “Do you think anyone saw us slip away?

“From the party?”

She giggled. “Yes, from the party.”

He kissed the top of her head and pulled her closer, his bed-warm scent wrapping around her the way the duvet was around her stocking-clad legs.

“Office parties are usually the worst,” he said. “Especially when in a local hotel, but last night, that was the best damn party I’ve ever been to.”

“Was it the cheap wine and sausage rolls?” she asked.

He chuckled and trailed his fingertips over her bare shoulder. “It was dessert I enjoyed the most.”

“Dessert? I can’t remember what that was?”

He pulled her closer and tipped her face up to his. “You were dessert.”

She smiled and accepted his lingering kiss.

“I’ve been crazy about you for as long as I can remember,” he murmured onto her lips. “Seeing you every day, in those tight little skirts, those sexy trousers that hug your arse… it’s been driving me insane.” He stroked her hair. “You have no idea how much I’ve longed to touch you. I’ve dreamed of holding you like this, imagined the scent of your hair and the softness of your skin.”

“Well, you have me now.” She circled her fingertip around his small dark nipple.

“It wasn’t just a one-night stand?”

She saw the vulnerability in his eyes. “No. Not for me, it wasn’t.”

“Not for me either. And for the record I couldn’t care less if anyone saw us leaving together. I’m proud to be seen with you, Alexis, to be with you… you’re amazing.”

Alexis’ heart melted a little more for him. Jimmy had been her office crush for so long. Each morning she’d fussed over her outfits with him on her mind. Spent good money on perfume and make-up and in the hope of something happening in the stationary cupboard. She’d also splashed cash on some seriously fancy underwear. It was delicate floral lace in baby blue and white—a bra, knickers and suspender set.

“You want some breakfast?” he asked.

“Yes, but I don’t want to get up.” She didn’t want the night to end even though the morning sun would soon be floodingthe room.

“So let’s have breakfast in bed.” He reached for the phone. “Shall I order us a couple of coffees and some pastries.”

“Food and sex… um you know me so well.”

“I know you bring a latte and a croissant into the office every morning.”

“You’ve been watching me.” She tipped her head at him.

“You know damn well I have been watching you.”

Jimmy ordered, then paused to re-light the candles on the bedside table. “See, this night doesn’t have to end.”

“That makes me very happy.”

“I could make you happier.” He gave her a wickedly sexy grin and set about kissing her, his hands roaming into the dips and curves of her body.

She explored his body too. Wide strong shoulders that until recently she’d only ever seen covered in a pristine white shirt, a slender waist and best of all a high taut butt that felt as good as it looked in his suit trousers.

Knock. Knock.

Alexis slipped from his hold. “Breakfast is here.”

She opened the door, stuck her arm out, and took the coffee and box of croissants. “Thank you.”
