Herorising (2014)
“Ari scooted around the three waitresses blocking the service station and stepped behind the bar.
She tried to use her boss voice, but she couldn’t keep the smile out of her tone. Licking maple syrup and whipped cream off a man’s abs for breakfast, and lunch, did that to a woman. “We’re not that busy and there aren’t any drinks in the queue.”
“We, um… We had a question on the new wine list.”
While the comment was directed at her, Ari noticed all three gazes were focused over her shoulder. Following the line of sight, she spotted the handsome gentleman seated at the end of the bar chatting with Ted.
He was pretty dishy, she had to admit, in a very Pierce Brosnan/James Bond-ish sort of way. Nice build, not too buff or too lean in his black-blazer-white-button-down combo. With the little bit of evening scruff on his cheeks, his style said he cared about his appearance, but not too much. He had dark hair with a touch of gray at the temples that leant him just enough credibility to be the s...cholarly type, but she recognized the twinkle in his eyes that indicated he could be a total badass if given a chance.MoreLess
