cheeks as his eyes laughed at her. He knew she cared, and right at this moment she was worried that she might care too much.  
    He unbuckled his yellow belt. “Are we flying or walking?”  
    Grabbing his work suit off the back of her door, she pushed it into his hands. “Definitely walking, otherwise you’ll cause a riot.”
    “Spoilsport. I hope you’ve got that costume booked for a few more days, Lois.”
    Erin felt a blush streak across her face. The man could read her mind faster than a speeding bullet. She smiled sweetly at him. “You won’t need a costume for what I’ve got in mind, Superman.”
    It was his turn to look a little hot and steamy under the collar. He sent a wicked glance her way before disappearing down the corridor.  
    Erin gazed at the door for a few minutes after he left, wondering what she’d gotten herself into. Dreaming about a certain male wasn’t going to get the stack of invoices on her desk approved for payment, or the latest budget re-forecast finished before three o’clock.  
    Sitting down, she opened her accounts folder and began to tap away on her keyboard, putting Superman and his itsy-bitsy costume out of her mind.  
    “That’s what I like to see - a woman who knows her way around an accounting system.”
    She glanced up, her mind still racing over payment codes. Jake stood in her doorway, one hip leaning against the side of the frame. Heat washed through her body at the warm invitation coming from his eyes. Logging her computer off, she grabbed her purse. “I don’t know what’s more dangerous. Superman or the real man.”
    “You’ll get a chance to find out on Saturday.” He laughed as she sidestepped past him and into the library.

    The rich aroma of roasted coffee beans wafted out the door of the café. After they’d started eating, Erin discovered that taking Jake out to lunch hadn’t been such a great idea. Word must have circulated that Superman needed a refueling break. Every female in the building just happened to need a muffin or sandwich, right at that very moment. And of course, they just happened to bump into Erin entertaining the man of steel. She’d never been so popular.
    Jake grinned as another woman left their table. “How about we finish lunch beside the river?”
    Erin looked warily at him, then at the crowd in the café. There was definitely safety in numbers, especially to a woman who’d already seen firsthand how distracting he could be. Even with a constant stream of introductions, the café suited her just fine.
    He raised his eyebrows, waiting for her reply.
    Glancing at her watch, she tried to figure out how much time they had left before he needed to leave. “You’ll get grass stains on your suit.”
    Jake gave her a bland look. He knew what she was up to. Holding out his hand, he smiled. And waited.
    Erin hesitated. She didn’t want to look like a scaredy-cat, and she most definitely didn’t want him to know how much he rattled her nerves. With a sigh of defeat, she knew there was only one option. Sucking a mouthful of air into her lungs, she took his hand and headed outside.  
    They found a quiet spot on the grassy bank and sat down. Cradling a cup of hot chocolate in her hands, Erin looked over at Jake. “You were great with the kids today,” she said, trying to fill the silence between them with something close to intelligent conversation.  
    That wasn’t the only group he’d impressed. Every female in the library had looked stunned as Superman made his grand entrance. The man of steel had sent estrogen levels soaring. “The parents will be booking for a repeat performance even if their kids don’t. Any chance you’d come back next month as your alter ego?”
    He choked on his coffee. “Nope. Not going to happen.”  
    “What if we change the costume? How does Batman sound?”
    Jake leaned back on his elbow, his blue eyes laughing at her. “I’ll make a deal with you. If you wear a Catwoman suit, then I’ll
