      One Night in Her Arms

      A sexy short story

      When Hannah meets Daniel , the angel investor saving her business, she can’t stop thinking about him. It’s not just because he’s gorgeous, she swears they’ve met before, but she can’t remember where.

      When he invites her to his cottage to finish up some business, she hopes the trip will jog her memories. She also hopes it will lead to something that involves fewer clothes and more hands-on work.

      WARNING: THIS SHORT story contains more than a hint of the paranormal...

      ~ Previously published as part of Sexy To Go anthology volume 9 ~

      Prologue

      Rain drummed on the roof, loud enough to wake the dead, but I wasn’t asleep anyway. Daniel’s arm looped around my waist, his hand resting over my naked breast, thumb idly caressing the soft skin. I’d never felt so safe, so wanted, so utterly content in all my life.

      No matter what our agreement said, I knew with a bone deep certainty: one night wasn’t enough.

      Chapter One

      Two days earlier

      When I first heard about Angel Investors I was sceptical. Now, when all other avenues had been exhausted, and they were my last option, I was too stressed to care about the quirky name.

      I stared at the website again. The sedate header was entirely at odds with the organisation’s name: Angels ‘r’ Us. Their description sounded more business-like.

      We are a group of affluent individuals—Angel Investors—who provide capital for business start-ups, usually in exchange for convertible debt or ownership equity. At Angels ‘r’ Us we specialise in the smaller businesses, those who might struggle elsewhere.

      I’d struggled all right. Opening my own café had taken every cent of my savings, along with the maximum amount the bank would loan me, but business was going well recently. This part of Wellington was a booming area, attracting scores of office workers, and more than a few students from the local university. I’d finally started to relax, and think about taking on a full-time assistant, as well as my part-timers.

      The space I rented was in one of the city’s older buildings, with huge windows, and mosaic tiles on the floor. It had character, and I loved it. When the landlord announced a month ago that the entire block was being demolished, I felt as though someone from my family had died.

      It’s the cost of bringing it up to code for the new earthquake regulations, he said. I can’t afford the work and even if I could, I’d have to pass the expense on to all my tenants. You’re best to move out now, and find another location.

      Move where? I tightened my hands around the edges of my Gaggia espresso machine. Even second-hand it had cost me a fortune, but it made the most amazing coffee.

      I don’t know. I’m sorry. He pinched the bridge of his nose, and sighed. This isn’t fun for me either, Hannah. This building is my livelihood too.

      And now, I was running out
