Take a Chance on Me

Lovers rarely mix well as co-workers. I know this I preach this Why, oh why didn't I trust my instinct and stay just friends?Because Charlie Jergens is too damned sexy to ignore, that's why.And because the near-miss plane crash shook me. Yeah, nearly plunging into the ocean and drowning could drive anyone temporarily insane. Right? Mercy, the sex... beyond amazing. Incredible. I feel the earth shake under my feet and this isn't any earthquake type. Lose your mind and lay with a stupid big grin for hours type.Now? He won't answer my messages. Or my calls. Or even my emails. Why did I have to ruin such a beautiful friendship?As if things aren't bad enough, my boss accused me of embezzlement Me Ms. Always-by-the-Book. Ms. Boring. Ms. Never-step-a-toe-out-of-line.Maybe if I catch the REAL culprit... How hard could it be? What could possibly happen?Plenty.She's driving me stark raving mad. This soft, gorgeous, harmless appearing lady with the southern drawl and sexy-as-hell curves. Chocolate eyes I could drown in. Not to mention her insatiable appetite and bedroom kinkiness.Lord, give me strength.But someone set her up for a nasty illegal fall. A twenty to thirty years in jail felony. I'm the sole one to save her. But I'll sacrifice the partnership and security I've worked my entire adult life to gain.Life is such a bitch.More than a partnership, the company, or even thousands of dollars is at stake. Someone wants Christine dead. Someone desperate, crazy, and more than a little too close. Someone we think is a friend. Someone we trust.But who?I have to find out. Fast. I love this sexy, reckless woman. And I'll do whatever it takes to make her mine.
