“Yes and no.”
“Good and fool! Jeez, Mol, the man is a walking, talking invitation to wild passion. Take a walk on the wild side, my friend.”
“The last time I took that walk, I tripped and fell flat on my face,” she said.
“So your last few relationships haven’t worked out. That doesn’t mean you stop trying.”
“I haven’t stopped,” Molly insisted. “I’m just taking a leave of absence.”
“Boring. You don’t have to marry the guy. But as a fully qualified, board-certified therapist, I’m strongly urging you to have mindless sex with him.”
“Because that’s always a great way to approach a relationship,” Molly returned easily. “Besides, he’s a Landry, Claire. Of the Landry Family. Of the wealthy and privileged Landrys. Forget being out of my league. He’s out of my universe.”
“What? You don’t think you can love and be loved by a rich guy? Didn’t I teach you anything during our years together?”
“He’s a public figure, Claire. And I’m the Queen of Private. And this conversation is completely silly because I’m probably not going to see him ever again.”
“Chicken.”
She heard the click and bleep of an incoming call, then said, “Gotta run, I’ve got another call.”
“Cowardly chicken.”
Molly was still grinning when she tapped the button to catch the incoming call. “Dr. Jameson.”
“Molly, dear, you didn’t return my call last night.”
“I’m sorry, Gavin,” she said with genuine emotion. “Things got a little strange.” She proceeded to fill him in on the details of her long night. As always her mentor and friend listened patiently as she told him everything.
Well, almost everything. She didn’t share with him that Chandler had her libido on high alert. Nor did she intend to. Not that Gavin wouldn’t have gladly listened, that was a given. He wouldn’t have cared that she found Chandler mind-alteringly appealing. Gavin was the most polished man she’d ever known, with the social graces of royalty. They’d been colleagues and friends since her residency, but she wouldn’t feel comfortable telling him about her fantasy love life. She pulled into the parking lot of the strip medical center where she kept her office.
