No coin nor oath required. For personal study only.
I lost my job and got kicked out by my roommate, who happens to be my ex-husband, on the same day.
If I nail one interview, I can get my life back on track. I even get to fly on a private jet with my prospective bossโs dad Gentry King, a widowed oil company CEO. Weโll make one stop and once Mr. Kingโs business is done, weโll continue on to Denver where Iโll hopefully land a high paying job thatโll keep me from moving back in with my parents. Iโm not even thirty, I canโt go backwards in life.
Mr. King is unbelievably attractive and intimidating, but itโs a short flight and I never have to see him again after itโs done. Only we donโt make it to Denver. A snow storm strands us in Wyoming where the only hotel room available has one bed. Unlike me, Mr. King remains undaunted and continues to work remotely at the desk in the room, otherwise ignoring my existence. Until the power goes out and thereโs nothing for us to do but get to know each other.
Between our age difference, his adult kids, and his former mother-in-law whoโs still in control of the company, what happens in Wyoming might have to stay in Wyoming. (
