      ALICE’S DESIRE

      We did it! We got the Carlson bid, Lynn called out from her office.

      Cool. I hopped up from my work space and hurried across the hall. For a brief moment I wondered why I was always the one jumping and running. I mean, wouldn’t it be just as easy for her to get up and come to my office? But, old habits die hard and I let that thought pass through the gray matter and disappear into space.

      Lynn jotted another note on the notepad in front of her, then sent a megawatt smile in my direction. He wants to go with the second option we laid out, for design and installation. The only catch is, he’s in a time crunch and needs it done ASAP.

      That might be a problem, I countered. The entire crew is tied up on the Rec Center job, so its done before we get penalized. We can’t mess around on this city job. The profit margin was too slim to lose anything on it.

      Oh, don’t go getting your panties in a wad, Alice. We’ll manage. She stood and smoothed her hair back. I’m going to go run out and get Mr. Carlson to sign the contracts. Once I get his signature, I’ll see what timeline he has in mind. I’ll use my feminine wiles to finagle us some extra time with him.

      You don’t need to go. I can run the contract out. Believe me, it really wasn’t a problem. Troy Carlson was a hottie. I wouldn’t mind seeing a little eye candy that afternoon.

      But Lynn, my BFF and business partner, had other plans. She intended on delivering the paperwork. And, what Lynn wants, Lynn gets. Usually. Once she sets her mind to something, she’s like a bull dog and doesn’t let go.

      Unlike me, good ‘ole Alice, who doesn’t always stand up for herself. I shrugged and went back to my desk. Damn! I wanted this bid. However, I’d always pictured myself being the contact point between A & L’s Landscape and the sexy house flipper.

      I worked myself into such a snit that the rest of
