from
Captivating the CEO
By Sara
Daniel
In honor
of Captivating
the CEO's one year anniversary, I have
asked Willow Jefferies and Colin Vanderhayden to interview each other. Here is
the transcript:
Colin: I made up a list of questions for us. Do you
want to ask me first, Willow, or should I interview you first?
Willow: You made up a list of questions? Are you
serious? Let’s just wing it. It’ll be more fun.
Colin: I’m expecting a call in five minutes. We need to
cut to the chase. First question, what are your plans for the future?
Willow: *rolls eyes* Definitely to take you to the back
room and strip you out of this suit and discover if your underwear matches your
blue tie.
Colin: You need a serious answer. This interview is
going to be printed. For example, my plan for the next year is to increase my
portfolio by ten percent, and my ten-year plan is to—
Willow: *yawwwwwn* My massages to work out your tension
are obviously not having an effect. How about your plans for this weekend? You
want to go skydiving and then I’ll seduce you?
Colin: *chokes on his coffee*
Willow: You’re right. Who wants to wait for this
weekend? Let’s do it now.
Colin: We’re in the middle of an interview. Can we at
least attempt some professional decorum and maybe one more question?
Willow: Of course. You’re running the show. How about
this question? Why did you hire me as your massage therapist when I am
constantly blowing off that professionalism you try so hard to maintain?
Colin: Because your hands on my neck and shoulders are
heaven.
Willow: Yep, it’s definitely time for me to put my hands
somewhere else that’s proven to reduce stress. *wink*
*phone
rings*
Colin: That’s my call. This interview is over.
Willow: Oh yes, it certainly is. And you’re not
answering that call either…
He only
plans for the future. She might not have a future.
When
live-for-the-moment massage therapist Willow Jeffries bursts into Colin
Vanderhayden's office, she makes it her mission to loosen up the future-focused
CEO, knowing each moment of the present is too precious to waste. Despite her
immediate attraction, the only future she can offer is one full of heartache.
The last
thing Colin needs is a flighty woman messing up his carefully-constructed
plans, but her heavenly massages and addictive personality prove hard to
resist. But he has no idea how sick she is.
No longer
able to ignore her life-threatening medical condition, Willow slips away to
spare Colin a miserable future with her. Is Colin willing to sacrifice his
well-laid future plans to get Willow back?
Excerpt:
Cupping her face with his hands and angling his mouth, he poured
the intensity she'd previously only seen him devote to his work into turning
her body into a tingling, craving mass of need. She loved the way he cradled
her-so gentle, yet firm.
Stars danced in front of her eyes, but she willed them away to
press her tongue between his lips. No matter how light-headed she became, she
refused to miss a moment of the kiss. Colin's mouth made the opportunity to
enjoy worth the risk of passing out.
But, too soon, he broke off, panting, his eyes
dilated with desire. “I have to get that.”
“Get what?” His words made no sense, then her
ears started ringing. No, not her ears. His damned phone.
“Of course you do.”
But he'd already turned his attention to a
conversation he gave far more importance to than anything she offered.
Sinking onto the couch, she pressed her fingers
to her still tingling lips. Dear God, she hoped she didn't affect him as
strongly as he affected her. If he became emotionally invested, she'd bring
pain and misery into his life.
