A solid blanket of gray clouds loomed above the skyscrapers. “How many phone numbers did those girls offer you while you waited?” I asked teasingly as we exited the building, an unpleasantly muggy breeze greeting us.
Swinging the helmet in my free hand, I grinned the whole way through the building. I could almost hear the dismayed growls echoing from the study nook. “I couldn’t resist crushing their souls.”Īmusement flashed in his dark eyes and he pulled me closer. His arm wrapped around me in response, but his look was questioning. We walked away side by side, and feeling the belligerent stares on my back, I gave in to my evil urges and slid an arm around his waist. As he joined me, passing over the helmet, I counted the disappointed sighs.
He snapped his laptop shut and rose, grabbing his black motorcycle helmet. That combination seemed to trigger some bizarre mate-hunting instinct in women, driving them to throw themselves at the man until he acknowledged them as worthy.Īt least, that was my working theory as I stopped by the table and received no less than three icy warning glares.
He attracted women with the oldest trick in the book: disinterest. Kai’s playboy status had baffled me-he wasn’t outgoing or even flirtatious-but now I got it. Two had crammed themselves onto the sofa with him, and five more were arranged across the remaining seats. When I’d left Kai a few hours ago, the study nook had been empty. It’s 100% fun, sassy, fast- paced urban fantasy. Note: The three mages are definitely sexy, but this series isn’t a reverse harem. So what’s a broke girl to do? Take the job, of course-with a pay raise Either I’m exactly the kind of takes-no-shit bartender this guild needs, or there’s a good reason no one else wants to work here. And the three cocky guys I drenched with a margarita during my trial? Yeah, they were mages. That’s the definition of fitting in, right? Their customers were complete dickheads, and I was an asshole right back. It went downhill the moment they asked me to do a trial shift instead of an interview-to see if I’d mesh with their “special” clientele. Those are my official reasons for answering a wanted ad for a skeevy-looking bartender gig. Links: Goodreads | Amazon | Amazon UK | Amazon CA | Amazon AUīroke, almost homeless, and recently fired.
