“Yet you still sound worried,” he pointed out.

  She sighed. “I’m not sure what I’m going to tell my boyfriend.”

  Micah shouldn’t have felt that prickle of jealousy, but he did. Even though he told himself it was ridiculous to think someone as lovely as Jennifer wouldn’t be taken. Especially since they would only be work colleagues, nothing more.

  Besides, he couldn’t get involved with anyone, not now. He’d learned the hard way not to allow any distractions of the sexual kind to interfere with his concentration while undercover.

  They were almost at the condo. “I’m sure you’ll figure something out,” he said. “Let’s get you settled in, and then we need to talk about what you can expect at that party.”

  The look she gave him might have been totally innocent, but his body stirred. Even that simple sentence, spoken as matter-of-factly as he could make it, now felt laden with sexual innuendo.

  Furious at himself, he knew he needed to shut this down immediately. Or there’d be nothing but trouble for both of them, further down the road.
