I swallow hard.

He has long, dark hair and it’s tied back in a messy ponytail. My eyes glance down at his ass; damn he looks good in those ripped jeans. Ding-dong.

If only his face is just as nice as the rest of him… suddenly his dark, ochre eyes meet mine as my eyes go wide and my lips part. Holy fucking shit.

This guy is gorgeous, like really fucking hot.

He has a sizable beard, long at the front and short at the sides. A perfectly straight nose. Dark eyebrows that frame his beautiful face. Not only that, but he towers over me. He has the perfect body size and shape and it’s clear by the look of his broad chest and shoulders that he works out. I immediately feel the heat rising up my neck to my cheeks. One annoying thing about me when I get flustered is I turn red.

This can’t be happening… Have I hit the jackpot?

I glance down at the emblem on his breast pocket, which spells his name. At the same time as I read it, he says, “Hey, I’m Rock.” His voice is deep and low.

Jesus, he has perfect lips too. I suddenly wonder what that beard would feel like between my… No!

My lips part, my throat drying up like the freaking Sahara desert as I squeak, “Hi, uh thanks… for the suitcase-near-miss fiasco.”

He frowns.

I’m such a loser.

“It’s no problem. So, you must be Aspyn.”

Way to go, idiot. Don’t even tell him your name.

Of course he knows who I am. My dad probably sent him my mugshot. I’m quite proud of it, actually. The photo went viral, and I was called “the hottest mugshot since Paris Hilton.” I’ll take that as a compliment.

But, I am a well-bred girl from a wealthy neighborhood and I can’t even remember basic manners.

I nod like a damn idiot. “Yep.” That’s it. That’s all I can come up with.

He gives me a chin lift. “This it?”

“Uh.” I clear my throat. “Not exactly. I have another five cases to come.”

His surprise shows as one eyebrow arches up, and I bite down on my lip.

He is smoking fucking hot. There is no denying it. My heart races at how he towers over me.

Is he the guy who’s going to be following me around everywhere? Or is he just here to escort me to the apartment and then I’ll meet my new bodyguards? So many questions and my dad didn’t tell me shit.

I hope it’s him.

I could spend my days just checking him out, or making out… That could be fun. It’s been a while and I’ve not been with anyone since Dylan.

Maybe I’ll pretend I work out at the gym so he gets to show off those muscles…

He’s staring at me, and I realize he’s still talking.

“Sorry?” I mutter, embarrassed that I’m acting this way.

“I said, I’m glad I ditched the prospects so we have room in my truck. They’re gonna tail us.”

I frown. “What’s a prospect?”

He loads my case onto the trolley. “Someone who doesn’t need to be here.”

I sigh. “So there’s…just, you?”
