Lover Wanted: A Billionaire Boss Romance
Page 20
Except in my wardrobe selection. I clearly suck when it comes to deciding what to wear.
My heel sticks in a gap between the floorboards, and I nearly trip. The girls laugh harder as some greasy guy with Elvis hair grabs my arm to steady me, then gives me a lecherous leer. I yank my arm away before his grimy fingernails ruin my favorite sweater.
“Hey, darlin’. Don’t be like that.”
His breath hits me like a train. Stifling the urge to gag, I give him a tight smile and edge around his sweaty body. I’ll need to Clorox myself at the end of the night.
When I finally make it to the bar, I practically throw myself onto a stool and order a whiskey sour. The bartender is efficient, and my drink is in my hands less than a minute later. I push a ten over the worn wood before the flannel-shirted man next to me can offer to buy.
Taking a long sip, I look around, studying faces while pointedly ignoring the flannel guy as he leans too close.
Shit.
From this vantage point, I can’t see the other side of the bar, so I’ll have to leave the relative safety of my bar stool to scope out the place.
Luck isn’t something I count on, and I assume I’ll have to hang out at The Wild Rose for a few nights before I bump into Cole James. But as I walk to the farthest side of the bar… there he is. Back against the wood, shot glass in hand, he looks three sheets to the wind already.
And sexy as hell.
