the nape of
his neck. “Hmm…I could, but only if you promise me something.”
    “What’s that?”
    “You won’t go back to your chauvinistic jerk ways.”
She pressed herself against him and whispered in his ear, “Because
if you do, your days of kissing me are over.”
    Jefferson slid a hand down her back to the curve of
her hip. “Trust me, you don’t have anything to worry about.”
    “Good.” She pulled his face toward her and kissed him
with more passion than before.
    As they walked back to the concert, hand-in-hand,
Layla worked up the courage to share something she’d been
considering since he assured her everyone in the office still
respected her despite seeing a brief glimpse of her weekend
personality.
    “Jefferson?”
    He lifted her hand and kissed the back. “Yes?”
    “Have you already done the photo shoot for the
Amazonia ads?”
    “Not yet. After seeing your photos, the client
decided the original model they chose wasn’t right for the image
they want to portray. They’re looking at other models and should
have their decision to us on Monday.” He stopped and faced her.
“Why?”
    “Because maybe I could do it, if they still want me
to.” She bit her lip as his eyes widened. “If you still think I
should.”
    His hug lifted her off her feet. “Of course I think
you should do it! The client will be thrilled.”
    She laughed softly as he set her down. “That’s a
relief after you worked so hard to convince them to use a different
model.”
    “They were so disappointed to hear they couldn’t use
your photos, but they’ll get over it when they hear you’re willing
to be their model.”
    “There’s just one thing.”
    “What’s that?”
    Layla smiled and gave him a hug. “You have to be
there to give me moral support during the photo shoot, and I want
Tommy as the photographer.”
    Jefferson chuckled and gave her a quick kiss. “That’s
two things.”
    “So I’m being as picky as some of the models I’ve
worked with in the past.” She leaned back and met his gaze. “Will
you let me get away with it?”
    “In this case, yes. You deserve to get your way
during your first official photo shoot.” He stroked a finger down
her cheek, his eyes full of warmth. “Besides, I wouldn’t miss it
for the world.”
    She gave him another hug, her heart overflowing with
affection for this wonderful man. As they continued on to the pole
barn, she made another decision, one she was sure Jefferson would
love. From now on, she would be the embodiment of the Amazonia
image—strong but sexy, capable and feminine.
