due to his close proximity.
    Coming to a close on the presentation, Lyndsay was so nervous that she actually felt jittery. Why in the world did she ever think this powerful, successful man would like anything she had to design? He could certainly afford far more experienced designers and she feared that’s exactly what he was thinking now. She had been so excited about the possible opportunity of getting this job that she had told just about everyone at the store, including her boss, about the meeting. To come back not having landed it was going to be a terrible embarrassment. Lyndsay knew everyone would be polite and supportive about it, but she also knew they would be let down as well. To have Nick Olson, one the city’s rising and well known attorneys as a client would definitely be a coup for them. Why hadn’t she just kept her big mouth shut?
    He aring Nick clear his throat, Lyndsay braced herself for the worst and was already thinking about how she was going to graciously thank him for his time and wish him luck with another designer. Extending his arm to point to her last sketch on the laptop screen, Nick asked, “Do you think we could add another chair over in this corner?”
    Lyndsay was momentarily dumbfounded. Now she didn’t know what to think. Was he just playing with her? Or was he really serious about the question? Too nervous to look him in the eye, Lyndsay kept her eyes on the screen and replied as nonchalantly as she could, “Yes. That would be no problem. You also have the option of putting a small decorative chest there as well, depending upon whether you want more seating or storage.” As Nick pulled his arm back to his side, his arm briefly brushed up against her breast and her heart stopped. Was that just an accident? she wondered. Lyndsay hadn’t had a man touch her in so long that just this slight touch instantly caused a fluttering between her thighs. Trying to pretend like nothing happened and positive that it was not intended, Lyndsay gave him an opportunity to not have to let her down in person and said, “I brought you a copy of these sketches to look over later. You don’t have to let me know today. And of course you’re welcome to call me with any questions.”
    Just as she reached her hand up to close the screen of the laptop, Nick reached up and covered her hand with his, blocking her from closing it. Not understanding why he was stopping her from leaving, she had no choice but to turn her head and look at him. Seeing his beautiful green eyes, sexy stubble, and feeling heat radiating throughout her body from sitting so close to him, Lyndsay became speechless and just stared into his eyes.
    Keeping his hand gently on hers, Nick said in a soft voice, “I love everything about these designs and you’re most certainly hired.”
    It took every effort for Lyndsay not to throw her arms around his neck. She was relieved on so many levels that he had hired her that she couldn’t stop talking. “Thank you so much, Nick. I’m really looking forward to working with you. You have a beautiful house and it is my pleasure to help you turn it into your home.”
    As Lyndsay continued on with the details of the contract she needed him to sign and discussed the budget, Nick didn’t hear a word she said. He was lost in her beautiful smile and her eyes that were dancing in excitement. She was perhaps the most honestly beautiful woman he had ever met and something tugged at his heart seeing how happy he had made her. He felt like a superhero in her eyes and once again, all he wanted to do was pull her into his arms and protect her forever. As she handed him the pen to sign the contract, Nick pulled himself together and scrawled his signature. As he sat writing the check for his down payment, it occurred to him that he had never moved back to his side of the booth after the presentation. The delicate scent of her perfume and the closeness of her body was like a magnet to his male desires. With the
