Working Romance Excerpt 

What's happening:

My heroine, Kate, is starting a new job the next day. Her friend Laura set it up for her. Laura also talks Kate into spending her last day of freedom at the nude beach. In spite of feeling embarrassed, Kate decides to go. After all, what’s the worst that can happen?

Well, there’s this:

Just when Kate was working up her nerve to turn over, Laura exclaimed, “Well! I’ll be damned! I’ve never seen him here before.”

There was a hint of alarm in her voice.

Who?” Kate was only mildly interested; she didn’t even look up.

Bob Simmons.” Laura hesitated, then started talking too fast, sounding alarmed. “Ah . . . Kate, I’m sorry. This is the first time I ever saw anyone I knew here, and it had to be Bob, of all people.”

So who the heck is Bob?” By now Kate was concerned, she had noticed the consternation in Laura’s voice. She knew it took something major to upset Laura.

Kate, I’m truly sorry about this,” Laura couldn’t meet Kate’s eyes, “As of tomorrow, he’s your new boss.”

He’s my what?” Kate gave a shriek, only partly muffled by her beach blanket. She thought she was embarrassed before but now she knew what the word really meant.

Your new boss. The man you’re going to work for, starting tomorrow.” Laura said, eyes laughing, “Please, please don’t kill me!”

Laura was really worried about her best friend’s reaction to this latest sticky situation. She watched as Kate buried her face in the towel. How was she going to set these two up if Kate died of terminal embarrassment, she wondered, but then again, the little voice in her mind added, even Kate could hardly ignore Bob now. Heaven’s above, she looked up at Bob as he walked over and thought to herself, no woman breathing could ignore him, even a very happily married woman like herself.

No! Laura, I can’t let him see me here. No way I’m going to meet my new boss stark, staring naked! How could I ever face him at work? Is he really headed this way? How do I hide?” There was genuine panic in Kate’s voice.

Too late,” Laura whispered, then she looked up and smiled. “Hi Bob! I didn’t know you came to this beach.”

I’ve never been here before. I just moved in up on the bluffs,” Bob answered. “Who’s your sunburned friend?”

I’m not sure that’s a sunburn, I think she’s blushing, and if it’s your first time here, why aren’t you? Blushing, I mean.” Laura asked, with a hint of challenge in her voice.

I didn’t say I had never been to any nude beach,” Bob looked down at the woman trying desperately to disappear into the beach towel, “Just not this one.”

He couldn’t help but notice three things: She had beautiful, long, red hair, a great ass, and she was so red that she seemed like she was about to die of either sunburn or total embarrassment.

I noticed you skipped the introduction.” He took pity on her. “Hey, don’t be shy. Everybody’s nervous the first time they’re here. Look at it this way, you’ll probably never see any of these people again.”

He didn’t mention that he had every intention of seeing her again, with Laura’s help. This brought a muffled choking sound from the blanket and caused Laura to look away.

Bob looked from one woman to the other and had a sudden sinking feeling that was confirmed by Kate’s words.

Oh, I’ll see you again all right. I’m your new accounting clerk, Kate Winslow, that is, if I still have a chance at the job.”

Kate, come on now, did Laura tell you that I’m such a jerk that I wouldn’t hire someone because I saw her at a nude beach? I promise that tomorrow, I’ll act like I’ve never seen you before.” He had a soft, yet husky voice that was very intriguing. At any other time, it would have made Kate think of silk sheets.

Come on Bob. You know I didn’t tell her you were a jerk.” Laura added, “I did mention a few things like your sexist attitude, your rotten temper and your special rules: No coffee breaks ever. Bow and kiss the floor whenever you walk into the room. Oh, and we have to wash your car on our lunch hour.”

Yeah, but I don’t make you wax it,” Bob grinned, “not everyday, and if I really were such a sexist pig, her chances for success on the job have just improved a whole lot.”

By now Kate had gotten up her nerve to take a quick peek, just to see if the owner of that intriguing voice looked as good as he sounded. She had, however, failed to realize exactly what part of a naked man kneeling in front of her would be in her immediate field of vision. Her eyes landed on the part of him that would have been covered up at any regular beach.

Oh my, she thought as she gasped, it’s been a long time, but if I remember right, that’s pretty darn spectacular! Kate knew instantly that her libido was not dead, it was gloriously alive and well. All her dormant hormones began to rage as she also noticed wavy brown hair, bright blue eyes, and a surprisingly muscular build for an accountant. I wonder what he does to get that body into shape, she thought, he didn’t build those muscles behind a desk. Her muffled gasp did not go unnoticed by Laura.

Bob and Laura realize Kate is so embarrassed she might not even show up to the job, so they convince Kate to go to Bob’s house for lunch and conversation. Bob is alone with Kate, briefly, by the pool.

Bob?” she asked, raising up on one arm and turning to look over her shoulder at him, “Did she set me up today?”

No. Kate, I swear I had no idea the two of you were going to be there.” There was pleasure and just a hint of guilt is his grin. “I won’t swear that I’m sorry you were there. To put it right out in the open, I liked what I saw.”

What you saw, ha! You should have seen my view.” She rolled onto her back and slanted him a mischievous glance. “Bigger than a breadbox.”

Bob almost choked on his iced tea. “Here I thought you were so shy! I’m shocked!” He actually blushed.

I don’t know what you’re talking about. You’re at least sixfoot tall, certainly bigger than a breadbox. Unless you thought I meant, ah, a little over-confident, are we?” She laughed openly at his expression.

You led me into that!” he accused. “You are a minx under those blushes.” He eyed her for a long moment silently, speculating. “Do you think kisses constitute sexual harassment?”

I think that depends on who’s kissing who, and how, and why, and what kind of kisses.” She grinned, and raised her eyebrows. “You’ll have to give me a little more to go on if you want a definitive answer,” she challenged.


He reached a hand out and slid it behind her neck, pulling her gently towards him. “Is this definitive enough?”
