Taking Dictation

Is this her dream job…or a nightmare waiting to happen?



Desperate for cash, Katherine Wheeler skims Craigslist for a job — any job. When her eye lands on what looks like a too-good-to-be-true office assistant job, she’s too broke to heed her misgivings. Within minutes, she has an interview scheduled.


Behind the green door of Pyramid Imports, Pieter Van Rijn’s piercing blue eyes and rugged features nearly stop Katherine in her tracks. Before she knows it, she has $2,000 a week, the keys to a brand-new company car, and a perfect-gentleman boss who oozes sex appeal.


But almost before the end of her first day, red flags start flying in all directions, clues that seem completely at odds with the man who treats her like a rare and precious find, whose eyes flash with jealousy when another man shows an interest. 


As the sexual tension between them ratchets up, questions clamor ever louder in the back of Katherine's mind. Is the man who entices her with brief touches and a single, searing kiss everything he seems to be…or should she run like the wind?
