An Excerpt
Assuming her best real estate smile , Erika turned to the man and extended her hand . “ I hope I haven ’ t offended you .” The painter was far more attractive than that bland painting . If you went for the intense type . She preferred men who were more agreeable .
Mark didn ’ t even pretend to return the smile . “ Not at all . Appreciation for art takes training . Maybe you should look into it .”
Now it was Erika ’ s turn to wince . He had her there . She ’ d never once considered taking an art class . When she was working her way through college in her native Oklahoma to get her business degree , she ’ d had neither the time nor the money to waste on frivolities like art .
