Seducing the Heiress by Martha Kennerson

know who I really like?” she asked, that familiar excitement returning to her voice.
    Robert sighed, wondering if it was another one of her church members’ daughters she was always trying to fix him up with. “Who?” he ventured, but braced himself for the answer.
    â€œOne of those pretty, dark-haired girls you work with. They’re sisters. Only I don’t know which one is which. That could be a problem...not being able to tell them apart,” she concluded.
    Oh, I can tell them apart.
    â€œThe Blake sisters. And I agree. One would be perfect for me,” he murmured, too low for her to hear. The dull ache in his chest that he’d been carrying around for days expanded into something that was spreading through his body like a virus. Last year, Meeks had almost lost his mind when Francine had constantly put herself in danger. And right now, Robert was slowly losing his, because he was in danger of losing the one woman who made him feel alive. The phone fell silent for a moment and Robert knew he’d given himself away. “Wait, how do you even know about the Blake sisters?”
    â€œYou’re not the only one that can use a computer, you know. Which one is it? Which one’s got you all twisted up in the game?” she asked.
    â€œMomma Penny, you’re killing me with all this slang,” Robert said, laughing.
    â€œI’m waiting,” she said, as he heard her take a sip of what he figured was her favorite drink, masala tea.
    â€œFarrah. Her name’s Farrah Blake and she’s the middle sister...the one with the blue eyes,” he explained, inwardly adding, The color of the deepest part of the ocean.
    â€œLike my baby boy, although I’m sure yours are much bluer and way nicer, as far as I’m concerned,” she stated proudly.
    Robert heard a familiar sound entering the garage. He checked his rearview mirror and confirmed his suspicions.
    â€œMomma Penny, I have to go. Take your medicine and I’ll call you later,” he promised. “And don’t give that nurse a hard time, either. Have to keep an eye out for you with these younger men.”
    â€œOkay, but you should have thought of that before you hired him,” she shot back. “He is kinda cute.”
    â€œMomma Penny!”
    â€œLove you, my blue-eyed wonder.”
    â€œI love you, too,” he replied.
    Robert disconnected the call, unplugged his phone and dropped it in his jacket pocket. He exited the car, strolled to where Farrah had parked and was opening her door before she’d barely cut her engine.
    â€œI told you I’d see you later,” Robert said, presenting her with a sexy smile. “It’s later.”

Chapter 6
    â€œW hat the...? Robert, you scared the hell out of me,” Farrah yelled, looking up at him. Her right hand had already reached for the handgun she kept on the side of her seat. “Not to mention you could get shot sneaking up on me like that.”
    Farrah’s dress was pulled up and gathered between her legs. From Robert’s vantage point, he had a clear shot of her thighs and legs and she knew he could see that her breasts were rising and falling a lot faster than normal. Farrah could only hope that he thought the adrenaline spike from his sudden appearance was the reason instead of the arousal he always provoked in her whenever he was around.
    Robert laughed, as though he found the idea of her shooting him funny. He took Farrah’s hand, helped her out of the car, taking her keys in the process and locking her door. Instead of returning her keys, he pocketed them, intertwined their hands and led them toward an area in the garage she recognized immediately. It was a space that was both crazy and special to them both. They would rendezvous there when they wanted to take a few private moments without so many eyes or cameras on them.
    â€œWhere are we going?” Farrah asked, only to confirm her suspicions
