and
gives him an aura of power.
    “This rather old
fool is the man that has put all of this together. This is his event; he is the
wealthiest investor in New York and owns multiple firms around the country,”
interrupts Uncle Danny.
    Before Sierra
could personally greet him, he abruptly leaves, and as she looks back she sees
a young and pretty blonde woman looking angrily at her as she addresses him.
Sierra laughs quietly to herself, as one of the most powerful men in the city
is being told off by a young lady, most likely because he has been talking to
Sierra.
    “Excuse me,
gentlemen,” she says to Uncle Danny and his friends, before taking a walk
around the venue in the hope of seeing Chad. She looks and looks but he is
nowhere to be found, and Uncle Danny is far too busy with his friends to keep
her company. She stays at the event for about an hour, making idle conversation
with men that show keen interest in her. Finally she decides to leave as she
loses interest due to Chad’s absence. She slowly makes her way to Uncle Danny.
“I have to go now, but thank you so much for having invited me.”
    Uncle Danny
walks her towards her waiting car. “I have another event to attend and would
love for you to attend it with me, and I promise to properly engage you.
Furthermore, the job is definitely yours, just be patient. Goodbye, kid!” He closes
the car door and Sierra is driven away with thoughts of Chad plaguing her mind.

    Inside her apartment
Chad Perry is all that Sierra can think of. She had left London not knowing
exactly what she needed. All she knew was that she craved a new start and
wanted to get away from Sebastian. Then she found herself in New York in the
presence of a handsome stranger called Chad Perry. Ever since then he had
carved a placed in her heart and it’s driving her crazy. She finds herself
being unable to control her emotions for him and wanting to run away from the
way she feels. She had left the car park on that fateful night with a heavy
heart not knowing what to feel or think or how to harbour such intense
feelings.
    Is it
Chad she is trying to run away from even though she longs to run to him, she
thinks to herself? She denies it emphatically, yet thoughts of him pop into her
mind when she didn’t want them to, and it drives her insane as he invades her
dreams and the feelings in her heart.
    She
tries in vain to remove Chad’s image from her memory. Instead of dwelling on
him she tries to focus on her outfit for the next event that Uncle Danny has invited
her to. She rummages through her walk-in wardrobe looking for an outfit to
wear. There are endless choices for her to choose from. Lost for choice, she
sits on the luxurious cream carpet and contemplates her options.
    Will
it be something from the new fashion season or will she just settle for something
old, classic and vintage. If only she had that many choices when it comes to a
man, her life would be much easier, she thinks to herself.
    Sierra’s
mind is engulfed in Chad’s world, longing for him makes her feel inadequate.
She feels lost and she needs him to find her, not only her body but her heart.
Her longing is unequivocal and shameful. Never in her life did she think a blue-eyed,
dark-blonde haired male would capture her heart the way Chad Perry has. She has
fallen in love and he doesn’t even know it because they have only met once.
    Plagued
by thoughts of love, she thinks about the time her blond ex broke the most
precious vessel her body held. He molested her heart and her body. Tears roll
their way down her perfectly structured cheeks and her heart breaks yet again
at the thought of that heartbreak. Feeling numb, she goes to the kitchen and
pours herself a glass of cognac on the rocks.
    All
she needs at this moment is to escape the reality she is in, the reality that a
part of her heart is with a stranger, and she has nothing of his apart from his
name, which is Chad Perry.
    Feeling
frustrated, she goes to
