And then there was her make-up, neutral save for the liner around her eyes and the bold lip colour… was that purple? His gaze narrowed over it and she must have sensed his attention, her eyes flickering in his direction. “You know, it’s rude to stare.” Her voice was husky, a crisp edge that rasped along his spine and sealed her appeal. Derek was hooked. Her eyes were back on the doors, her lack of interest obvious. He should’ve taken it as a sign, but since when had he backed off from anything he fancied? —------------ Olivia Carter has been in a relationship for two years with a man who offers her a future.
