slightly on one side to make sure that she didn’t step on the hem. Revealing sexy ankle bands in colorful stones, that on closer inspection he realized were part of her deceptively plain flat sandals. And her makeup was minimal. Just enough to highlight her almond shaped eyes and sparkly lip-gloss to emphasize her pouty lips. He thought she definitely knew how to pull off comfortable, elegant, and sexy as hell; all at the same time. She took his breath away.
As she reached him he breathed in a fresh light flowery scent that matched her perfectly. Sunshine and breezes. Her face lit up as she scanned the truck. “This is yours?”
“Yep. A 1951 Chevy 3100 .” He rubbed the hood lovingly.
“It’s beautiful! I love old cars and trucks. I’ve always wanted an old truck.”
“Do you want to know what is really beautiful?” He paused for emphasis. “You.”
She looked down at the ground bashfully. Her cheeks turned a pretty pink. “Thank you, Gabriel. You look really handsome. What you do for a t-shirt should be illegal.”
Now it was his turn to blush. I’m a thirty-seven year old man, and this woman has me blushing like a schoolboy. ”Thank you, Madison.” She smiled at the use of her given name. And with a flourish and a bow, he opened the passenger door. “Your chariot awaits, milady.”

Sunny giggled like a schoolgirl as she slid into the truck. When she had stepped out of her apartment and saw him leaning against that old truck, looking as if he was one of the bad boys that had literally stepped off the pages of one of the hundreds of romance novels she’d buried herself in, she had nearly gone cross-eyed at the sight. The plain white tee could barely contain the muscles that rippled across his shoulders, arms and chest. Even now as she watched him shift and steer through traffic, the muscles in his arms flexed gracefully. His forearms were thick and corded, with huge veins snaking under his skin and a light dusting of black hair. She wondered if it was unusual to want to lick someone’s forearms . I mean…seriously!!! There is no way on this God’s green earth that this man could really find me attractive! This shit just doesn’t happen in real life. No. Absolutely. NOT!
Pulling her mind out of bewilderment, she realized that he’d flustered her so much the past couple of days that she hadn’t asked him one thing about himself or his new movie. Sure she had read about him in magazines, but who knew what information was real or not. It was time to learn straight from the source.
“So most of our conversations have been about me and I think it’s time we changed that. If that’s alright with you? I’m sure being in the lime-light you don’t want everyone to know your business. But-”
“It’s fine Sunny. Ask me whatever you want. I trust you.” Gabe gave her a warm reassuring smile.
“Well, what is the new movie that you’ve been filming here?”
“That’s an easy one. It’s called Redemption. It’s about a man, a banker that has been cheating on his wife and just generally ignoring his family. Then a group of bank robbers decide to hold him and his family hostage, forcing him to help them rob his bank. In the meantime, he is also forced to realize just how much he loves his family. And tries to redeem himself, by doing everything in his power to protect his family. That about sums it up. Drama, action and a little bit of romance.” Gabe glanced at her to gauge her reaction.
“Nice, it looks like I better clear my calendar for the release, because it sounds like something I’d definitely go see. The description has the earmarks of an Oscar and Golden Globe nominated film. If the script is well written.” Sunny said matter-of-factly.
“Wow! You really are a movie-buff.” Gabe looked at her with a seriously impressed smirk.
“I just love movies. Always have. And for some reason most movie information, even if I’ve only heard it once, somehow gets stuck in my
