    About this ebook

    Bergen Klaus, a well-respected landscape architect, is over forty, single, and looking for love. He wants to explore an interest in a co-worker, except company policy frowns on inter-office relationships. Not to be deterred, Bergen devises a creative plan that allows him to come to Taylor’s rescue. But will it be enough to catch the younger man’s eye, and still allow him to make his intentions known without alerting the boss?

    Taylor Prescott, a young interior designer, is dedicated to his job and oblivious to Bergen’s advances. Instead, Taylor is more than a little put off by the “gifts” that keep mysteriously popping up in his office. Can Taylor get past his insecurities to discover the truth of this office mystery? Will he be receptive to Bergen’s attempt at catching a boyfriend?

    Avery Dawes

    After growing up in Pennsylvania, Avery Dawes now makes her home south of the Mason-Dixon line. She functions on copious amounts of sweet tea. Her independent-minded cat allows her plenty of time to create passionate stories full of good-looking men. Of course, life is too short for her characters not to live happily ever after. When not working, Avery can be found lounging on the beach, plotting stories and searching for new character inspirations.

      Bergen Klaus, a former University of Tennessee starting defensive end, scanned the empty hallway before using his pilfered master key to open one Taylor Prescott’s office. He crept inside, stifling a chuckle at the thought of him – someone who was well over six-foot-two and two- hundred-twenty pounds – trying to move as silently as a mouse. He guided the heavy door softly closed behind him. Light from the streetlamps outside filtered through the vertical blinds into the office. Bergen waited a moment to let his eyes adjust. He breathed deeply, letting the scent of leather and Taylor’s expensive cologne fill his lungs. His cock stirred at the thought of burying his face in the junction of Taylor’s neck and shoulder and tasting his sweet scent. Get your head in the game, Bergen! You’re going to get caught if you keep thinking with your dick!

      A jolt of adrenaline shot through his bulky frame. He felt like he was back in high school, sneaking around somewhere he didn’t have permission. Bergen pushed the jitters away as he scanned the room, looking for a place to plant a ‘present’ – something sure to catch Taylor’s
