our
meeting. Do you have a current passport?”
    “Yes, but why?”
    “We want you to represent FrogLeap at the tech con in San Francisco next month.”
    For a few seconds Anna was speechless. Only experienced
managers went to the con, and as a newly promoted project manager she’d never
thought she’d be chosen this year, but today was turning out to be full of
surprises. After a moment, she sputtered out her thanks.
    “You deserve it,” Lionel assured her. “We’re all expecting
big things from you, Anna.”
    She repeated her thanks before she ended the call and spun
back to Giles with an enormous grin.
    “I’m going to the tech con in San Francisco!”
    His face lit up. “Darling, that’s wonderful.”
    She flung herself in his arms and kissed him passionately.
After a few blissful moments, she drew back to look at him.
    “But what about you? Are you sure
you can’t stay at FrogLeap ?”
    Giles shook his head. “No. We both know that’s not an
option. I want you, Anna.” His eyes grew sober again. “I suspect if you knew
exactly how much I want you, it might make you a little nervous.”
    “Nope. You know me; I don’t scare
easily.”
    “Glad to hear it, because I’m not joking, Anna. I want
something serious with you.”
    Her breath hitched at the deep sincerity in his expression. “Why me, Giles? You’ve been a bachelor all these years. Why
settle for me?”
    “God, woman, I’m not settling for you.” He squeezed her
waist, his face intent. “You’re smart, intelligent, ambitious, loyal,
hard-working, honest, drop dead gorgeous, and the most amazing woman I’ve ever
met. I’d be the luckiest man in the world if you chose to be with me.”
    His heartfelt words dissolved her bones so she had to cling
to him, and it was no hardship having his powerful chest to support her.
    “And you are an incredible, unique man,” she whispered back,
cupping his face between her hands. “No other man would do what you’ve done, passing up on the job he wanted just to be with me.”
    “Anna, I can always get another job, but there’s only one
you.”
    His eyes burned with conviction as he lowered his mouth to
hers and allowed his lips to convince her of the truth.
