Tony and Heather are moving into the "getting to know you" phase of their relationship. They have great sexual chemistry, and a budding emotional connection, but have only known each other a few weeks. Too bad everybody has baggage....Heather's last serious boyfriend was a manipulative, cheating D-bag. How fun that he's also the newest sales rep at her firm. Oh, and that he's hitting on Heather's administrative assistant. Yay! Not. This dude has some serious cahones, however, and Heather's stressed by his unwelcome attention. Why is he always showing up when she's alone? And, does he even mean the compliments he gives her--or are they a means to engage her so he can manipulate her again?Tony is done being the 'manwhore'--Heather fulfills him in ways he never had been with his scores of sexual partners. Unfortunately, one of those gals has turned up with big, BIG, news. Is Tony a daddy? He's terrified that Heather will walk if she finds out--but he's also suspicious that he's being played. Baby Mama is a known party girl, and Tony wants proof before he commits to any long term plans. See, Tony's freaking loaded--and his money has always been the attraction for his playmates. Only Heather had no interest in turning agony into a paycheck--which was why he was drawn to her initially.Reading this book I had Shel Silverstein's THE MISSING PIECE MEETS THE BIG O rolling around in my brain.[...](The book is classic and just a poignant for adults as it is interesting for children.)Anywho, it seems to me that Heather and Tony compliment--not complete--each other. They confess their new, and important, problems and find a partner with whom to share the journey. Tony immediately wants to confront Heather's ex, but let's her handle the situation in the proper manner--this gives Heather confidence that she can solve her own problems. And Heather embraces Tony's potential paternity with grace. After all, she'd want him to be involved in his own child's life--even if she wasn't the mother.And, being all roly-poly like an industrious missing piece, Tony makes overtures to foster Heather's creative side--in the bedroom and out of it. This bring into focus how terribly smitten he is--and engages the attention of Tony's brothers--who are fun. So much good smexytimes I know I'll be thinking about them for quite a while. The loose ends are tied here. The only plot line going forward is the growing relationship between two characters I really enjoy.
