I was desperate for a job.

So desperate that despite the warnings of the company's operations manager, I took the job of assistant to the CEO.

She warned me that he put the moves on all his female employees but I could ignore that if I could pay my rent and put food on the table.

Electricity jolted through me the moment we met and as I got to know him over late nights of work and long lunches away from the office I knew nothing, not even scheming managers, would keep me from my perfect partner.
