She smiled, \u003cbr\u003eremembering the strange footsteps echoing down the corridor.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eI wonder why those particular footsteps captured my attention? I can \u003cbr\u003eremember how I mindlessly shuffled paperwork as I waited to see whom \u003cbr\u003ethey belonged to. How my breath ceased at the sight of that handsome, \u003cbr\u003elithe, dark-haired man with graying sideburns in his early forties! \u003cbr\u003eI think I can still remember every word. Let me see . . . I'm fairly \u003cbr\u003esure I stammered when he asked me if I were new to the building. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eHow strange the excitement was that I felt when he told me that his \u003cbr\u003eoffice was directly across the hall from mine. I had thought it was \u003cbr\u003evacant! And that little white lie I told him about brewing a pot of \u003cbr\u003ecoffee as we spoke never hurt anyone. Wow, was I nervous when I \u003cbr\u003ebrought him that first cup of coffee. My hands shook so badly I left \u003cbr\u003edroplets on the tile floor outside his door. For the life of me, I \u003cbr\u003ecouldn't figure out why he had such a strange impact on me. Then, \u003cbr\u003ewhen he asked me where my cup was, I almost fainted! When I returned\u003cbr\u003ewith my cup, and he closed his office door behind me, I was so filled \u003cbr\u003ewith con-flicting emotions: fear and anticipation . . . Oh yes, I \u003cbr\u003eremember now how embarrassed he was, years later, when he told me \u003cbr\u003ethat he'd thought I'd been the most provocative young lady in her \u003cbr\u003emid-twenties he'd ever laid eyes on. How we laughed over our first \u003cbr\u003eimpressions!\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eI was really only a kid and oh so scared when I first met Michael. \u003cbr\u003eIt's a wonder he had anything to do with me.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eI'd never had to work before Sam died and left me with two little \u003cbr\u003echildren to support. Sitting in that office pretending I knew how to \u003cbr\u003ebe a secretary was hard enough.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe magnetic force between us was amazing. Sure, I was young and \u003cbr\u003ehad a body to die for then, but those perfect measurements are long \u003cbr\u003egone. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eMaybe it's really true that when two people fall deeply in love...","brand":"RSVP Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47162434322672,"sku":"2940013024816","price":9.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/2940013024816_p0.jpg?v=1763575892","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/2940013024816","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
