Face-Off (2011)
“Samantha was close to tears when she met Sierra for coffee the next morning.
“What didn’t work?”
“What you said. I totally put myself out there. I showed up at Greg’s work in a trench coat, high heels and nothing else. In front of all his colleagues. We went to the bar and he was half-crazy wanting me. Then I took him home and we had the best sex.” She shivered at the memory. She put her head in her hand. “But nothing’s changed.”
Sierra looked at her the way she’d probably look at a second grad...er who got simple arithmetic all wrong. “Did you really think it would?”
Sam jerked up in her chair. “Yes. I thought it would. You were the Romeo and Juliet expert. You told me all I had to do was put myself out there, be prepared to make a fool of myself in the name of love. I’m telling you it didn’t work.”
Sierra was soft-spoken, a lady, the kind of woman who always let other people go first in lineups. But Sam was beginning to realize she had a streak of steel in her too.MoreLess
