Seducing her Scarred Boss Billionaire Bosses, Forbidden Flings Get a free book from Natalie’s ‘for Me’ series Also by Natalie Anderson About Natalie ONE ‘You’ll have that for me by three? Fantastic.’ Dani forced her body to freeze at the sound of that voice. ‘No problem.’ Dani knew the breathless assistant would have it for him by two at the latest—just as she would if he’d asked her. Alex Carlisle, CEO of Carlisle Finance Corporation, on his rounds again—gliding through the open-plan area and bewitching his staff so they performed above and beyond. She wondered if he even knew the effect he had on his legions of adoring employees. And Dani was the latest. Not looking was impossible. Her lashes lifted. Truthfully she was probably the only one whose work was suffering because of him. She found him so distracting she wasn’t getting half as much done as she should. Half of her wished he’d go away so her insides wouldn’t be so pummelled, but all of her wanted him to stay. He was so good to look at, she’d been watching him all week.

So predictable. Anyway she couldn’t afford to fixate like this. She checked the time. Only a few minutes and she could go to lunch. She’d never clock-watched before, usually enjoyed her work so the hours flew, but she had a mission to fulfil. Besides, something about this place made her antsy. Okay it was him. She was waiting, always waiting for him to appear. Now he had, she couldn’t wait to bust a move, so restless it was as if she had creepy-crawlies infesting every inch of her clothing. Unable to resist the compelling force of him, she lifted her head and looked again. She was such an idiot. It was as if she’d been tossed into a stormy kind of teen crush—she’d never experienced one in her youth, but it seemed there was a time
