HARD HAT HOTTIE

—

Harlow

I’d started to dread going to work. Until each shift began with a sultry smile from the hottie in a hard hat.

My work in the ER was stressful. Add a longer walk in the sweltering Florida sun because of a hospital remodel, and there was no motivation to go.

​

Well, except for him.

All bronze and beautiful, he’s a fantasy come to life.

But if a guy like that wanted to settle down, it wouldn’t be with someone with my baggage.

​

Doesn’t matter. I’m too smart to hook my dreams on another blue collar Beefcake. Any man for that matter. Those only come true in romance novels.

But I can still look. Right?

What was I thinking, starting a construction business in Florida? Even dollar signs couldn’t tempt me to arrive at the work site early.

But she could.

​

I thought the oppressive heat had melted my brain. Is this beauty a mirage? No woman has ever gotten me excited for merely a glimpse of her.

​

Yet I keep building the wall between us. Flirty moments are all I can chance. There’s no place in my life for more.

As much as I’m dying to make her mine.
