garage at seven thirty to retrieve Brooklyn’s Jeep. I am
exhausted and I suddenly don’t feel so guilty about skipping the
gym the last two days. I guess that I’ve walked about ten miles and
think how ready I am to pour a very large glass of wine and soak in
the tub. That sounds heavenly right about now.

    The week passes in a blur
and I cannot believe today is Friday already, tomorrow is the gala!
Every day at work Eloise keeps us extremely busy, planning phone,
Skype or face to face s interviews with the men from our Most Influential issue.
     
    I sit in on all of them,
witnessing first hand Eloise’s poise and professionalism. She keeps
perfectly composed while schmoosing with some of the most famous
and not to mention, gorgeous men in the world. This is a skill I
have yet to acquire, turning into a clumsy, stuttering mess every
time a young stud enters the room.
    This week Envy finally
revealed their Top 100 list to the employees at the magazine and today is the shoot
with the #1 Influential
Man , Kayden Knox. Eloise will be doing a
face to face interview with him this afternoon. Reagan was beaming
ear to ear when he found out we would be doing the cover shoot
instead of using a photo from a publicist like many others chose to
do. Only a handful of the men who made the list came to L.A. for
professional photo shoot.
     
    I sit at my desk and
nervously pick at my lunch, worrying about my testing afternoon.
Kayden Knox is a billionaire oil tycoon and business entrepreneur.
He runs a chain of five star hotels owned by his father, and he
himself a successful chain of night clubs in Houston, L.A., Las
Vegas, Miami and NYC. He’s even guest starred on hit TV shows. I
had even seen Youtube videos of Kayden singing, so not only is he
completely gorgeous and filthy rich, but he can sing. I don’t think
there is anything he can’t do.
     
    I had spent the morning on
Google, attempting to learn everything there was to know about him
before the interview, however I didn’t get much done because I
couldn’t tear myself away from admiring the gallery of photos, this
man was beyond gorgeous. He has to be about six feet three and
nothing but solid-muscle, I swear one of his biceps has to be as
big as my head. He has the most intense emerald green eyes I have
ever seen, with a very strong jaw line and narrow nose. There isn’t
an inch on him that isn’t perfect. Everything about Kayden Knox
screams sex.
     
    I hear the click clack of
stilettos on tile floor as Eloise approaches my desk. She was
wearing solid, black dress slacks, a bright red, sleeveless button
up blouse and leopard print heels. She always looked like she just
stepped off the runway when she was at work.
     
    I take a quick sip of my
water to wash down my chicken salad and greet her with a smile,
“Good afternoon Eloise.”
     
    “Good, you’re finished with
your lunch. Kayden Knox’s plane landed earlier than expected so he
wants to move his interview up. I’ve already talked to Reagan, he
has all of his gear ready over at the location for the shoot. He
said that once we’re finished you should escort Kayden to Greystone
Park and Mansion.” she declares, smiling back at me.
     
    “Okay, I’ll freshen up and
meet you in your office.” I throw my salad in the trash can under
my desk, grab my purse and head straight for the ladies room. I
could not meet Kayden Knox with salad breath.
     
    I walk to Eloise’s office
and take a seat by the window, gazing down on the busy street
below. My stomach is churning with a mixture of excited nerves and
I think about running out, I give myself a good talking to though,
knowing this is great experience for when I’m editing my own
magazine. A few moments later Eloise returns to the
    office and, sitting at her
desk, gets her laptop ready for the interview.
     
    “They should be here any
moment,” the front desk called my cell to let me know they were in
the
