СКАЧАТЬ First you insult me in your suite and now you’re jeopardizing my livelihood.”

      “I didn’t order those towels.” The denial sounded petulant, childish.

      “Well, somebody did.”

      “Then I owe you an apology.”

      “Apology accepted. Would you care for an appetizer before dinner?”

      Smooth as silk she brushed him off and left him feeling like an idiot for offering his help. Sharmaine was right. Ruthie could take care of herself.

      Tension knotted in his neck, he settled back into his chair.

      Ruthie topped off his wineglass as if nothing had occurred, but her hand shook the tiniest bit.

      When she moved away, Sharmaine pouted. “Really, Diego, you’ve paid more attention to that waitress tonight than you have to me.”

      He couldn’t deny the truth. He had been far more attuned to Ruthie than he had to his lovely date. And he could offer no logical explanation for his behavior.

      “That, sweet lady, is because the waitress served the prime rib.” Tilting his head, he gave her his most charming and disarming grin. “Do you know how long it’s been since I’ve had prime rib?”

      Sharmaine found that amusing. “So,” she said, “the way to a man’s heart really is through his stomach?”

      Diego struggled to keep his mind on the conversation and off the most disturbing urge to follow Ruthie into the kitchen and apologize again. Considering Ruthie’s reaction to his offer of help, he was not on her list of all-time favorite males.

      “That’s what they say.”

      “Oh, pooh. Now I’ll have to learn to cook.”

      “Or hire one.”

      Sharmaine responded with a throaty chuckle, and Diego knew he’d been forgiven for being less than the perfect dinner partner. To tell the truth, he was hard-pressed to understand himself tonight. He was sitting with a beautiful woman who fit into his social world. A woman who obviously enjoyed men and who would lead him on a merry chase if he would let her. Her game was clear. There was no subterfuge, and his heart was in no danger.

      But he couldn’t take his mind, or his eyes, off a certain green-eyed waitress.
