file was out of place. He could imagine that she used the same ruthless efficiency to organize this place that she employed during her business meetings.
     
    The woman who stood to greet him was as gorgeous as he remembered. Seeing her clad in a sky-blue suit, he recalled the way her skin flushed under his hands. His mouth salivated at the thought of her firm, heavy breasts that fit into his hands so perfectly that it seemed as if they were made for him.
     
    Seeing him, she raised her eyebrows. “Riley, to what do I owe this pleasure?”
     
    “Came here to give you some information that you might consider vital,” he drawled. Walking over, he pulled out a chair and sat. “Xavier has given his nod to my people. We’re on our way to close the deal.”
     
    “But…” she sputtered. “He told me he is still talking to the owners.”
     
    Riley sighed. This is exactly what he was afraid of. Xavier was playing both sides very nicely, probably in order to win a better commission. “He has got a vested interest to play us both,” he said. “After all, the more desperate you are to win this, the greater his commission.”
     
    She chewed her bottom lip and sat opposite him. “Why are you telling me?”
     
    “Obviously because I don’t want you to think I’m a complete asshole. I want to close this deal as much as you, but I have got certain standards, and one of them is not to cheat the woman I like.”
     
    She shifted her phone from one side of the desk to another. “Like? I thought I was the enemy.”
     
    “I’ve changed my mind,” he said. “You’re no longer the enemy.”
     
    “Wow! I am so touched,” she said in a sarcastic tone. “Thank you.”
     
    Riley sighed. He wasn’t doing this right. Leaning forward, he put his hands on the desk. “Listen, Tania. We can butt heads over this, but that’s not the way to go. I like you a lot…and I wanted to see where this mutual attraction takes us.”
     
    “Mutual attraction?”
     
    “Come on, sweetheart. I am not a fool and neither are you. We can do something great here, together, but if you are hell bent on not accepting your feelings, there isn’t much I can do.”
     
    She stood and walked over to the window. Tania stared out as if she were deep in thought. Riley kept quiet. He wanted her to give him another chance, but he couldn’t force her. Instead, he wanted her to accept him. This could be something great and amazing, but she needed to make it happen.
     
    Finally, she turned around to face him. “What are you offering?”  
     
    “A normal relationship. Dinner. Cinema. Walks. Whatever you want.”
     
    “And what about this deal?”
     
    “As I said, it’s out of my hands. Xavier is going to make the final decision.”
     
    She walked back over and sat. “But I am not going to let up on the deal.”
     
    “You can keep talking to him if that’s what you want, but I would suggest we wait for him to get back.” He tapped his fingers on the desk. “The more we both pursue him, the harder he will try to play us against each other. Let’s just sit tight and wait for him to respond to one of our offers. The minute he contacts me with an offer, I will tell you and vice versa. He might come with a revised amount or he might accept an offer.”
     
    “So we don’t contact him again…neither one of us.”
     
    “Yeah, that’s the deal.” Riley didn’t think it was a good idea to turn this into a war. He’d made his offer. Xavier would respond in time when the owner gave his go ahead. He didn’t have any intention of cheating Tania and going over her head. He hoped that Xavier would make this decision soon and put them out of their collective misery, but, until then, he was willing to wait.
     
    She leaned forward and gazed into his eyes as if she wanted to judge the authenticity of his emotions. Finally, she nodded. “It’s a deal.”
     
    With a woman, Riley was never unsure. He was always on top of things, but right now,
