spa that afternoon. He planned to
    propose that evening and wanted to make sure Becca was refreshed and relaxed. Cole wasn’t
thrilled at the prospect of a spa day, but he couldn’t complain about a free massage.
“Nathan, could you zip me?” Becca emerged from the bedroom in a one-piece black jumper.
She’s wearing that to a spa?
“Gladly.” Nathan helped her with the zipper, placing a trail of kisses along her long neck as
he did.
Cole rolled his eyes. Oh come on . He’d like to be doing the same thing to Madison, but no
one needed to see it. Public displays of affection were not his thing .
Madison hid a giggle behind her hand. She tucked the iPad into her purse and stood.
“Okay, I’m ready. Let’s go. Dahlia hates it when I am late.” Becca clapped her hands.
Cole suspected Becca was late for a lot of things. High maintenance women . He shook his
head as he wrapped his scarf around his neck. He didn’t see the appeal. He preferred a natural
beauty, like Madison. Her alarm went off in the room next to his every morning at eight, and she
was always waiting for him in the lobby less than an hour later . Looking beautiful as ever . That ,
he could appreciate.
Becca’s brand new black Audi R8 awaited them in her parking space in the underground
parking garage. Nathan uncovered the car and opened the passenger side for Becca, and then
opened the driver side door for Cole and Madison. He leaned in and pulled the driver side seat
back. He waited for them to climb in.
Cole looked at Madison and down at his tripod and camera bags. He didn’t travel light. The
backseat of the car was just big enough to fit the two of them.
“Maybe we should take the truck and meet you two at the spa.” Madison ran a hand along
the beautiful black exterior. She looked disappointed.
The smell of the new leather escaped from the open door.
“Nonsense, there’s plenty of room. Y’all have to experience this car. I bought it for her for
her birthday, but she refuses to drive it herself.” Nathan laughed.
“We’re going to be late.” Becca huffed from inside the car.
Cole cringed. Her voice had a nail on a chalkboard effect. How could Nathan deal with that
whiny sound? He preferred Madison’s voice—rich, silky and incredibly sexy.
“Well?” Madison asked. Her eyes begged him to say yes .
Funny, he hadn’t pegged her for a fast car kind of girl. “Why not?” Cole shrugged his
shoulders and climbed into the backseat placing his tripod on the back windowsill of the car and
securing his backpack in the tiny space between his feet on the floor. Not bad.
Madison climbed in next to him and almost sat on his lap. These cars were not designed
with the comfort of the backseat passengers in mind.
Cole smiled, grateful for the tiny, confined space. He could smell Madison’s hair, and he
took a deep breath. The distinct smell of peppermint filled the space between them, and he
resisted the urge to kiss the top of her head. Their shoulders touched, and each time the car took
a sharp turn, she fell against him. Her hand brushed his leg on the seat, and he fought the urge to
wrap an arm around her, drawing her closer. She’d made it clear, his advances were unwelcome,
but the look in her eyes the night before in his studio told a different story. Keeping his hands
and lips off of her would be a challenge.
Despite the driving speed, they were late, and Becca pouted when she learned Dahlia had
gotten tired of waiting for her, and had taken a different client. She was reassigned to a young
girl named Anna, who looked nervous while Becca made demands, as they disappeared down the
hall.
Cole, Madison and Nathan were ushered down the hallway toward the dressing rooms. The
spa hostess handed them big, terry cloth bathrobes and slippers to change into. The spa was
spectacular with its ancient Egyptian theme and décor and dimly lit hallways. The tranquil sound
of running waterfalls had the desired soothing effect, and the
