      Tempting the New Guy

      Alegra Verde

      The last thing Glory James needs is another office affair. She’s already having a steamy fling with her boss, Bruce Davies—a fling where Glory calls the shots in the bedroom.

      Nevertheless, she’s tempted by her new coworker Clement Johns’s confidence and southern charm…not to mention the chance at a normal relationship. But as things start heating up with Clement, what will Glory do when Bruce decides he’s not willing to share her?

      Any magician worth his salt can escape from a locked cage or a pair of handcuffs.

      —Murphy, the theater owner (The Perfect Poison)

      Clement Johns was a new account exec at Davies and Birch Advertising. He was from the South, born in Memphis, and he had a slow, dusky way of talking that sent shivers up my spine every time he came up behind me and said my name. Something he seemed to enjoy, because he did it at every opportunity. I’d be standing in the lunchroom, staring at the microwave, waiting for my Cup-a-Soup and he’d come up behind me. Glory, he’d breathe on my neck, the word tickling the soft hairs at my nape. A lovely name for a beautiful woman, he’d say from behind me as I bent over the copier tray to retrieve my copies. I said, Thanks, that’s sweet of you, the first couple of times, but that seemed to encourage him. So I started rolling my eyes at him whenever he tried to catch my eye, and when he came up behind me, I’d get my cup of soup or my copies or my supplies and make my way around the pillar that he’d become.

      He was a find. Not because he looked like Jude Law, with his straight-teethed smile, the boyish look of his slightly mussed fair hair and the glow that emanated from his gaze, but because there was a definite charm to his Southern purr and his confidence was backed by substance. After earning an MBA from Stanford, he’d gone out to L.A. and bounced around from agency to agency before he went home and started his own ad firm, which focused primarily on evaluating and purchasing internet ad space. He came to Davies and Birch with a solid client list and a technical manual he’d developed that identified primary venues and established a criteria for judging their potential effectiveness. The firm had hired him in at substantial cost, given him a staff of two and a small corner suite of offices. It was a sound move. The clients were impressed with the expanded markets and the projected figures looked as though the firm’s faith in Johns would be realized sooner than expected.

      He and his crew were to take center stage at the morning staff meeting. Bruce Davies was, as usual, at the head of the long oval table and Lucas Birch at the foot. Johns was to present a list of up-and-coming sites with suggestions for how and by who they might be best used. It was his first presentation to the staff at large. Claire, Davies’s assistant cum secretary, had reserved three prime center seats for Johns and his staff. The two nerdy looking guys who worked with him were fresh out of CUNY. They took two of the seats and dutifully held the one between them for
