Entangled Indulgence
World-renowned jewelry designer Remington Wolfe is competing for the commission of a lifetime and someone is trying to destroy his company from the inside. He’s in for more than one surprise when his unexpected rescuer turns out to be a sexy computer specialist with a sharp tongue and even sharper mind.
Kat Smith
is a cyber-security expert and master of disguise. So being assigned to masquerade
as Wolfe’s girlfriend while she uncovers who slipped malicious code into his
corporation’s computer systems is no problem. But when Kat’s past catches up to
her and their fake relationship starts to feel a little too real, problems are
all she seems to have.
She took a
deep breath. “As I don’t have a UK work visa, though, your HR department might
figure out that something’s up. The other option would be for me to pretend to
be your girlfriend.” She winced as his foot slid off the clutch mid-shift, and
the car protested his attempted gear change.
“What makes
you think I don’t already have a girlfriend? I don’t double dabble.”
She
laughed, and he white-knuckled the gearshift. “Bonus points for the computer
term. Have you been studying?”
“A little.
But I realized I was out of my depth and had to call in an expert.” The look he
sent her this time implied he still doubted her credentials. He’d see soon that
she knew her stuff.
It probably
wasn’t fair that she knew so much about him when, as shown by the fake cat-lady
photo, he knew nothing about her. “I’m an expert. For example, I know that
unless you’ve switched to more discreet female companionship, your last
intimate relationship ended five weeks ago. She claimed you were, and I quote,
‘emotionally unavailable.’ But judging by the number of photos on Instagram of
her kissing her dog, I assume you got tired of your girlfriend tasting like
Shih Tzu.”
His laugh
filled the car and drew an answering smile from her. “You’re not wrong. But how
did you know I broke up with her? Maybe she shattered my heart?”
“Because
shortly after your name stopped appearing in her social media feeds, she was
suddenly sporting an expensive-looking tennis bracelet. I doubt men who get
their heart shattered give their exes break-up jewelry.”
He shrugged
but his face was still lit by a smile. “I write it off as a marketing expense.”
“I bet you
have a whole line of relationship termination pieces.”
“True. I
call it the ejection collection. Makes me a fortune.”
“Well, rest
assured, I won’t be demanding any rocks if we go the fake girlfriend routine.
Smacks of payment for services rendered to me.”
That
elicited a raised eyebrow. “Will services be rendered? This is sounding like
the better option.”
