  241. About the Author

Kates mouth swung open and she stood like a statue as he climbed and disappeared into the loft. She doubted he would do as he threatenedbut she couldnt be certain.

And I have to go to work for him tomorrow. The words were said just above a whisper, as Kaitlins heart thundered in her chest. Was it fear or something else entirely?

It didnt take Rigg more than a second to see that Kaitlin was terrified. He knew it was not what hed said to her the day before because even though shed been cautious, she had been fairly relaxed around him for the rest of the day.

No, this mornings nerves must have been the job and Rigg went out of his way to make her feel at ease.

Here is your desk. And these are the books I want you to start with. Marcail took me by surprise when she found an error in my addition. I want you to check these books for mistakesJanuary through May of this year.

This will also help you understand my system. Im going to be working on an order so if you have questions, just ask.

Rigg went immediately and sat in his desk chair. Kate stood for a moment before doing the same. The extra desk was just a little smaller than Riggs and he had pushed them so they faced each other. After sitting down, Kaitlin was painfully aware of Rigg directly across from her. She tried to look everywhere but at him and in doing so discovered what a wonderful view the office had of the store.

Kate opened the first book cautiously and began to read, pencil ready. Riggs handwriting was a bold script, easy to read and a bit like her own in style. Kaitlin mentally congratulated the teacher who taught him the skill.

She worked for almost an hour, correcting some columns and putting a check by all shed re-added, before she had a question. She loved numbers and once involved, it was an effort to drag her mind away. Rigg had been up and down and Kate, who would have said that no one could distract her, was finding out how wrong she was.

She tried not to stare at Riggs dark hair and the way it curled slightly on his collar as she stood up with the January book and moved toward him. He looked up immediately, giving her his full attention.

What do these letters mean? Kate pointed to the side of the ledger next to the names of the brands.
