here.”
    “What’s wrong?” Camryn stood up. “Did something happen?”
    “Other than the fact I may go into a month long depression at the sea of drab colors in your closet?”
    Booth didn’t miss the grimace or the embarrassed blush that crept up her neck. “I’ve told you. I like what’s in my closet.”
    “Yes, well, we’ve got to go shopping. I’ve got us an appointment at Armani in less than an hour.”
    “If you’d looked at any of those professional colors, you would have noticed that I’ve got several beautiful pieces of Armani in the always-efficient and fashionable black.”
    “You’re headed to Hawaii. Black doesn’t work in Hawaii.”
    “So you’ve told me.” Camryn’s tone was dry as day-old toast. “Regardless. Why do we need to go anywhere? We’ve got plenty of Armani in the fashion closet over at McBride. We’ve also got Gucci, Carolina Herrera, and about every other designer you can name.”
    Sinclair’s eyes lit up with a degree of avarice Booth hadn’t even seen at the high-limit tables in Vegas. “What are we waiting for?”
    Camryn shot him a helpless look and Booth couldn’t hold back the grin. “Well, clearly you’re in very capable hands. And since you’ve found a way to streamline the afternoon, I’ll plan on seeing you Friday morning. The car will pick you up at six.”
    “Do I need to prepare anything for the meeting?”
    “Is there any figure on your business or the industry you can’t quote from memory?”
    “No.”
    “Then just bring yourself.”
    “Your newly clad self,” Sinclair added for good measure.
    Camryn shot the small man a dirty look before crossing the room. “Booth. I’ll see you out.”
    He followed her down the hall, unable to see a single problem with the trim black skirt that framed her heart-shaped ass to perfection.
    When they got to the front door, she turned toward him. “Thanks again for the opportunity to join you.”
    “It’s my pleasure. And look, I’m sorry about Sinclair.”
    “I’m not quite sure why he’s taken such an interest in me.”
    “His heart’s in the right place. Consider him a necessary evil.”
    She laughed at that, a deep, rich sound that grabbed him by the balls and hung on tight.
    Damn, but she was sexy. He knew this attraction was madness but God help him he couldn’t quite shake the desire to spend time with her.
    So instead, he leaned forward and took the opportunity to kiss her on the cheek, lingering over the moment before he dropped his voice to a husky whisper. “I’ll see you Friday. Don’t beat up Sinclair too badly.”
    Her eyes clouded with confusion as he pulled back and stepped through the door, and Booth counted the moment a personal victory. Especially when he took in the small line that furrowed itself between her slender dark eyebrows.
    Just as he was about to break his arm with the self-congratulations, a broad smile spread across her face, tinged with clearly wicked overtones. “I’ll be gentle. Unless he decides to pick out my underwear.”
    She shut the door on him before he could respond.
    ***
    Camryn’s heart still raced an hour later as she continued to replay the moments with Booth in her mind. Damn, how did the man manage to mix her up so badly? And what was with that moment at her door?
    I’ll be gentle. Unless he decides to pick out my underwear.
    Had she really said that? Like the texts of a few weeks ago, it was like some impish urge had taken hold of her mouth.
    No matter how hard she tried, she simply couldn’t get her footing with Booth. Lust wasn’t the most rational reason for causing possible upheaval to her life.
    But it would be damn fun.
    Shaking it off, she keyed back in on the problem that was currently wasting her afternoon. Camryn knew her wardrobe was plain, but she was a financial professional for heaven’s sake, not a fashion model. She left the flashy colors to her sisters and was just fine with that. Keira was their CEO and the fashion-forward
