excerpt

Ian glanced around the now empty room before speaking. “I realize I’m in no position to judge relationships in the work place.” 
Hell no, considering Ian had pursed his now-wife, Riley, brought her into the business, and promoted her, Dylan thought. 
As for Olivia … “There is no relationship.” 
“But you want there to be one. And my sister isn’t cooperating. Am I right?” 
When Dylan didn’t reply, Ian continued. “I saw you two in the hallway. At the party.” 
Dylan blew out a long breath. “Not that I owe you an explanation but nothing happened.” He ran a hand over his goatee, buying time. 
“Bullshit. I saw the kiss.” 
Dylan inclined his head. “Fine.” 
He knew Ian was overprotective of his sisters. He even understood the man’s reasons. For that reason alone, Dylan wouldn’t lose his temper now. 
“Look, you’re my friend. More than that, I respect you as my boss. But whatever is or isn’t going on with me and Olivia … that’s none of your business.” 
Ian eyed him through his infamous narrowed gaze, assessing him, causing Dylan to straighten his shoulders and meet his stare head on. 
Ian cleared his throat. “My sister is tough on the outside but she’s … more fragile inside,” he said, clearly considering his words carefully. 
“Your point?” Dylan asked the other man. 
“Don’t play with her head or her heart.” 
Dylan inclined his head. Unknowingly, Ian had just reaffirmed that whatever kept Olivia at arms length, it had nothing to do with business. If anything, she felt too much or she wouldn’t have run. 
“We good?” Ian asked. 
“Always.” 
“Then good luck in Hawaii,” Ian said, turned and walked out the door, leaving Dylan alone to strategize his next step. 
Dylan wasn’t the type to give up on something he wanted. He’d been too soft with Olivia, giving her space, figuring she’d give in to chemistry eventually. Obviously that wasn’t going to happen. He needed to take control and should have done it sooner. 
Where better than the tropical paradise of Hawaii to make his intentions crystal clear. 
Yes they were going to Hawaii on business, but she was interested in enjoying the island.  
They were staying in the same hotel and attending the same events. That added up to opportunity and Dylan wasn’t above taking advantage if it meant getting what he wanted. And he wanted Olivia.
