In the end, Jeni will be asking the ultimate question: Does Aiden know that he really does have all of me?

~ Excerpts ~
 He puts his finger up to my lips to quiet me. I swallow a lump in my throat.
“Shut up and kiss me.”
He pulls me into a tight embrace, leans down and kisses me. That familiar surge of electricity flows with ease between us. The feeling of his lips on mine again after so long apart, fills me with pure happiness. It’s like time stops, and at last we’re here together like we are meant to be.

******

I lean up to kiss him and as I do he pushes me back into the elevator wall and kisses me passionately taking me by surprise. He leans his whole body against mine as he reaches out and slams his hand on the emergency stop button. The elevator grinds to a halt, jolting us.
I smirk at him “you did not just do that?” I ask as he moves his hand to the top of my pants.
“I think I just did,” he says as he swiftly pulls my pants down to my ankles. I giggle and step one leg out of my pants and panties.
“Are we seriously going to do this?” I ask as Aiden grins mischievously.

“Abso—fuckin’—lutely, it’s been a fantasy to do this in here with you for as long as I can remember,” he says then crushes his lips to mine.

 ~ Excerpt ~
I turn to face him; he puts his other arm around me. We are in the same position as before when the last kiss attempt failed. My arms are tight around his neck, his arms around my waist. I look down. He lifts up my chin so I’m lost in his gaze. His hand goes back to my waist. He swallows; I think he’s as nervous as I am. He tilts his head and leans in … I back away quickly.
“What’s wrong?” he asks, looking hurt.
“Oh, no, it’s not you. I think … I might have garlic breath.”
He laughs and pulls me back to him. “So do I.” He pulls me in tighter, and before I know what’s happening, his lips are on mine. I give in and surrender to him completely.
This feels like one of my fantasies, only way, way better. He holds me tight as one hand moves from my waist to caress my cheek, kissing me softly but sensually. My hands move to the back of his head, and I grab a lock of hair in each hand. He moves our bodies so that I’m against the railing at the edge of the deck. He moves his hand from my waist to hold the rail as I still grasp his hair. The kissing becomes feverishly passionate; his tongue against mine as they intertwine with each other. Our breathing becomes faster and erratic. Our kissing becomes more intimate. We are in perfect sync with each other. I pull him closer to me, our whole bodies touching. My heart is pounding fast and hard. His hand moves from my face to the back of my head, pulling me tight. He moves my hair from the side of my neck, breaks our kiss and kisses my neck slowly and seductively. I sigh and breathe in a stuttering motion. I open my eyes to see the waitress standing there, gawking at us. I stiffen as I see her. He pulls back and looks at me. With my eyes, I gesture toward the waitress. He turns, looks, and lets out a little huff. He leans in towards me.
“Now that’s a first kiss,” he whispers as he grabs my hand and leads me over to the table. I can’t help but smile.

~ Excerpt ~
      My nerves start to get the better of me, I start to feel nauseous; those darn pesky butterflies attack again. I’m not sure why I’m nervous, whether it’s the shoes making me unstable or whether it’s the memory of our first date, our first touch, or our first kiss that’s making me bashful.
      I turn the corner to see him standing there with a bunch of red roses, in the suit that he changed into earlier, this time with a baby pink tie on. Behind him is that gorgeous waterfall cascading down the cliff with the lush greenery surrounding us. As I take a step closer, I hear music playing. “Thank You for Loving Me” by Bon Jovi. It’s our song. I feel my eyes welling up as all the emotion and love I feel for this man is becoming too much to bear.
      His smile is beaming from ear to ear when I approach. Finally I reach him. He holds out his hand for me to take. I take it, and he pulls me into a tight embrace.
      “This is perfect,” I whisper.
      “Perfection for perfection, my love.” He kisses my cheek, and places the bouquet of flowers on the railing.

~ Excerpt ~ 
I run through some paperwork when I hear someone clear their throat to get my attention. I look up angrily to see the man who crashed into me this morning. It’s the idiot who enhanced my bad day. 
“Jeni, I presume?” he asks with a quirky smile on his face, which is unexpectedly attractive. 
I sit in silence as I stare at him with my mouth slightly open in surprise. 
He speaks again. “I’m sorry about this morning. I see you managed to get that stain mostly out of your top. I’d like to pay for some new clothes and the damages to your car, if you’ll let me.” 
I squirm in my seat as the attractiveness of this man is suddenly apparent. How did I not notice his gorgeousness this morning? He’s, quite frankly, one of the most attractive guys I’ve ever seen. In spite of his outrageously good looks and cheerful persona, I start to get angry with him all over again.
“No, you don’t need to pay for new clothes or for my car. My manager has told me that they will fix it for me and then charge the insurance company. So, like I said this morning, I don’t want or need your charity, thanks.” 
He looks at me in surprise. “That’s no way to talk to a customer.” Again with a mischievous grin. 
“Urgh.” I want to slap him in his smart-ass, gorgeous face. 
“Sorry,” I say with extreme sarcasm. “Can I have the details of your car please, Mr. O’Connell?” 
“If you won’t let me buy you some new clothes or fix your car, how about lunch then?”
There’s that grin again. I quickly gather myself together and reply hastily. 
“It’s after two, Mr. O’Connell. I’ve had lunch, thanks.” I’m feeling quite pleased with myself as I stand up. “Now, if you wouldn’t mind, the details of your car?” 
He looks at me puzzled.
“I didn’t mean today. I meant tomorrow or the next day or the weekend. Whenever you’re free?”
With that, his gorgeous smile crosses his face again, and I begin to melt. Is it hot in here? I can feel my cheeks burning. I look down, pretending to sort out paperwork on my desk so he can’t see the redness spreading across my face. 
“I don’t think I can do lunch. I’m pretty busy you know.” 
He looks like he’s thinking hard about what to say next and he tilts his head slightly. 
“Dinner then?” 
I let out a little laugh but quickly gather myself together. 
“I could use the details of your car, Mr. O’Connell?” 
He grins again. 
“Jeez, you’re a tough one to crack, Jeni.” 
I try not to smile.
“Okay, how about this? If you give me the pleasure of having dinner with you on Friday night, I’ll give you the details of my car.” He looks very pleased with himself, grinning from ear to ear. 
I sigh, considering his deal. 
“Oh, um, I don’t know. I mean you’re a customer. Surely there is some sort of rules about customers and employees dating.” 
He laughs; the sound is delightful to my ears. 
“I won’t tell if you don’t.” 
I stand there in shock, contemplating what to say next. I mean could this amazingly handsome man want to take me out to dinner? Really? I’m not anything like the type of girl I’d imagine he would be into. I try to think of some witty comeback, but before I know what’s happening, I sputter, “Fine! Friday for dinner, if it’ll get you to co-operate. Please tell me the details of your car.” 
I take a deep breath and wait for him to reply. 
“Great, Friday it is. I have your details from this morning. I’ll call you with the restaurant and time.” 
I sit back down on my chair in a dazed shock. 
“Is that okay with you?”
I shake my head with disbelief.
“Sure, why not?” is all I can mange. 
His smile reappears like he has overcome a huge obstacle and triumphed.
