Sleeping With the Boss (15 page)
Hold on. “Call me,” he said.
“What?”
“On your cell. Call me.”
She stopped. “Why?”
“I’m curious about something.”
She pulled out her phone. When the call finally came through, they both busted out laughing. “I see Chance got a hold of your phone!”
“Yep.”
“So, you’re going to change that now, since you know the truth, right? ‘The Spy Who Loved Me’ is so yesterday.”
“What would you suggest, Miss Maddox?”
She stared at her watch. “Hmmm. How about ‘Afternoon Delight,’ Mr. Anderson?”
He grabbed her around the waist and pulled her against him. “My God, I love you.” He pressed his mouth to hers and she kissed him back with equal passion. It felt so good to have her in his arms again, and he never wanted to let her go. People moved on the ramp all around them. Their voices blended into a nondescript murmur as her hands roved his back and her tongue danced with his. Nothing was as right as being with this woman. He’d never let her go again, even if it meant touring every damn desert country on the planet. She was his oasis. The place he could go when all hell broke loose, and he planned to sit in her shade for the rest of his life.
Eventually, she pulled away, and they stared at each other, completely out of breath.
“People are staring,” she said.
“I hadn’t noticed,” he replied, pulling her in for another kiss.

Acknowledgments
First, a giant heartfelt thank you to Liz Pelletier, who has been a fantastic mentor and guide for my first foray into category romance.
Deepest gratitude to the entire Entangled Team, including but not limited to Heather Howland, Candace Havens, Jessica Turner, Debbie Suzuki, Melanie Smith, Erin Crum, and my sister writers at Lovestruck.
A huge hug to Sophie Jordan for being my cheerleader and encouraging me to step outside my comfort zone. You’re amazing!
Jen L. Armentrout, you got this whole ball rolling by playing matchmaker and pushing me in the right direction—which turned out to be the bar at RT two non-consecutive years. I am grateful.
Love to Gina Maxwell for making me laugh and sending me the EAS for motivation.
Thanks to all the readers who have followed me across genres and new readers who have given me a chance with this book. Special shout-out to Shawna, Lucy, Bailey, and all my girls in Camp Clarke!
And most of all, a big thank-you to my amazing husband, Laine, and my supportive and long-suffering family who have stood with me through this wild ride from my very first book back in 2011 until now. Not a lot of people get to live their dream. Because of you guys, I’m one of them. I love you.
