His By Christmas
Teresa Southwick
From Four Weeks to Forever Parasailing. Hang gliding. Rock climbing. That's what hard-driving exec Calhoun Hart had planned for his monthlong Caribbean jaunt. Until a skydiving accident puts a crimp in his plans—and puts him back into work mode. First order of business: fly in a personal assistant. But how's the once-burned bachelor supposed to resist the serene, superefficient redhead who has more than his bottom line working overtime?Justine Walker could do a lot worse than this tropical Eden. And working with Cal is reaping unexpected benefits. Like helping the widow heal from a tragic loss…and showing her sexy, never-stops-to-smell-the-roses boss how pleasurable downtime can be. But once vacation's over, are they ready to take a leap of faith and keep paradise in their hearts forever?

“I was protecting you.”
“From yourself,” Justine clarified.
“Yes. If I hadn’t pulled back, there’s no way I could resist touching you, and that would make it impossible not to have you.” Sincerity and longing darkened Cal’s eyes.
“You wanted me?” She was almost afraid to believe it was true.
He kissed her and whispered against her lips, “I’ve wanted you from the moment I first saw you.”
“That’s hard to believe. I’ve read about your dalliances. Every last woman was beautiful and perfect.”
“No one is perfect,” he said.
“The women you dated came pretty close.”
He studied her. “Sounds like you’re having second thoughts.”
“Not really. I’m just giving you an exit plan.”
“What if I don’t want one?” He took her hand and lifted it to his lips. “In case you’re still not convinced, I’ll make this as clear as I know how. I want you more than I’ve wanted any woman. Ever.”

“I’ve had sex recently.” Calhoun Hart hoped there was enough self-righteous indignation in his retort to make the lie believable.
