I push away my worries and stand as Mr. Willis's cologne fills my senses, clouding all rational thought.
The way he's standing there, looking at me. The man is absolutely sex on a stick. If I didn't have a family to fool and a wedding to attend, I could let my fantasies go in so many other directions.
Stay focused. Concentrate.
Walk. Step and don't trip.
Thank God I'm not carrying coffee.
As we silently stand waiting for the elevator, I fidget with my purse and pray I won't hyperventilate.
Watching the numbers climb to our floor, I wonder why I suddenly feel awkward, not knowing what to say or how to say it. Three years of knowing one another and in the three days since I last saw him, everything feels different. Finally, the doors open and we step into the empty elevator.
Once the doors close, Duncan turns. In one quick step, I'm backed against the wall with his hips crashing into mine. I barely catch my breath, as I'm caged within his arms when without warning his mouth descends.
"O-oh!" I stutter before his lips steal my whimper.
Demanding yet sensual, his kiss is like the sweetest delicacy wrapped in cinnamon goodness. Breathing is forgotten as his tongue joins the assault. Without thought or hesitation, I accept his invasion, opening my mouth and welcoming his addicting taste. His one hand secures me against the wall while the other one wraps around my waist, pulling our hips together.
When the elevator stops, Duncan takes a step back. With a sexy glimmer in his eyes, his smile lingers before he wordlessly turns toward the opening doors, leaving my lips bruised, eyes wide, and lungs gasping for breath.
Shit, this man can kiss.
With little regard for those around us, he places his large hand in the small of my back and leads me through the lobby. With just two kisses, I'm suddenly at this man's disposal. My body moves to his inclination before my mind has time to process.

MORE ABOUT PLUS ONE
He's sexy and confident, the kind of man every woman notices. You know, the one with the to-die-for body and panty-melting smirk. And then there's the way his designer suits drape over his broad shoulders and big...well, we've all heard the rumors, the ones that say he's up for any challenge.
But I can't see him that way. He's my boss—technically one of the owners of the company where I work—and definitely not in my league. Men like him don't notice women like me, and they don't date them.
And I don't date men like him.
Until that one time that I catch him in a compromising position when I'm also in need of a last-minute date for a wedding...and then it's not real. It's blackmail.
For one weekend, he's my plus-one.
Beautiful and unobtainable.
From the moment she walked into my office with those stunning blue eyes and crazy sensual curves, she's been on my mind. Three years and never once has she acted interested in me. Usually I flash a million-dollar smile and women fall to their knees, some literally.
Not her.
Then on the occasion that I agree to let another woman do that—fall to her knees—guess who happens to catch us?
It may not be the most conventional way to get on her radar, but I didn't get this far in business without knowing when to seize an opportunity. If this sexy little firecracker with perfectly kissable lips thinks she can blackmail me into attending her cousin's wedding, I'm going to jump at the chance to be her plus-one.
You love her darker side. Now it's time to meet Leatha, the lighter side of Aleatha, as she trades her renowned twists and turns for laughs and love with this sexy new stand-alone romance, PLUS ONE.
