What I really want to say is hell, no, but that would make me look like a bitch. And I’m not a bitch. Well, outside my own inner dialogue, I’m not.
“Great,” says Dad before turning to the waiting neck-brace woman. “Ah, Mrs Kelly. You can come on in now.”
Mrs Kelly follows Dad into his office, leaving me alone with Jay.
“What time do you have lunch?” he asks in a low voice, stepping closer to my desk.
“One o’clock. We’ll have to get a taxi, because I need to be back here by two.”

Meet the Author
Greetings! ‘Tis a pleasure to make your acquaintance. My name is L.H. Cosway and I wrote the book you just read. I hail from Dublin, Ireland, where I live with my husband and two tiny dictators of the canine variety. My favourite things in life include daydreaming about fictional characters, eating in fancy restaurants, looking at dresses online that I’ll never buy, having entire conversations with my dogs, listening to podcasts and of course, reading books. I happen to believe that imperfect people are the most interesting kind. They tell the best stories.
Here is my website where you can find various and sundry information about me and my books: www.lhcoswayauthor.com
