    “I’ve got Jordan as a brother, do I need to remind you? If
anyone would’ve corrupted me, Jordan has already done so. Seen it all, read the
book, and even wore the tee shirt,” said Sam with a smile.
    “I like her,” said Mattie with a smile as she poked Jett in
the stomach. “She’s not going to take any of your bullshit.”
    “See what I mean, guys? I just love my Mattie.” Mattie hit
Jett on the rear with her wooden spoon and went back to whatever she had
cooking on the stove.
    “Next is my handyman, Davis,” said Jett as he ushered Sam
and Ian outside. An older gentleman busied himself on the lock of the back door
and smiled a toothless grin at the trio. “Davis, this is Sam my new assistant,
and this is Ian.”
    “Pleased to meet y’all,” he drawled. “Y’all just holler if
you need anything.” Davis went back to the lock, not waiting for a reply.
    “Ah, here’s Toby,” said Jett thankfully. “Really guys, I
gotta run.” Jett took off leaving Sam and Ian to fend for themselves.
    “Hey, Toby,” said Ian. “We need a ride back to the hotel. Is
Jett driving his own car?”
    “Yeah. You know Jett. Back to the hotel?”
    “I think so.” Ian turned to Sam. “Is that okay with you?”
    “Like I have big plans,” laughed Sam, and she followed Ian
into the limo.
    “What are you going to do about lunch?” asked Ian.
    “Not much, maybe order some room service and get to work for
Jett.” Sam looked out the window. “But it sure is a pretty day, out there.” She
sighed wistfully.
    “I’ve got an idea. Have you ever been to Santa Monica Pier?”
    “No, I’ve always wanted to go. I’ve only have been to Navy
Pier.” Sam sighed, realizing that she had so much living to do.
    “Navy Pier? Where’s that?” asked Ian.
    “Chicago.” Sam studied Ian carefully. “You don’t know much
about Chicago, do you?”
    “I know about Frank Lloyd Wright. And the Sears Tower.”
    “It’s not called the Sears Tower anymore. But never mind.”
Sam let it go.
    “Anything past Las Vegas is all a blur,” said Ian with a
smile.
    “You’re a terrible snob,” admonished Sam with a wave of her
hand.
    “How about we do lunch at Santa Monica? My treat.” Ian
smiled graciously.
    “No, it’s Jett’s treat,” laughed Sam. “He said he'd pay for
lunch.”
    “Even better,” smiled Ian, and then his expression grew
serious. “You do have extra clothes if you want to walk on the beach?”
    “I brought some shorts and flip flops, if that’s what you
mean. I hoped maybe I could get a chance to sightsee. I have no desire to go to
Rodeo Drive, though.” Sam lifted her head and touched the tip of her nose
with her finger. “Too snooty.”
    “You’re something else, you know? Every woman alive can’t
wait to see Rodeo Drive,” laughed Ian.
    “Well, Ian? I’m Sam. I’m not your everyday woman.” Sam’s
eyes were mischievous.
    “I can see that,” laughed Ian. “Meet me in the lobby in ten
minutes.” They both went their separate directions.

Chapter Four
     
     
    Ian couldn’t wait to get back down to the lobby. He
thoroughly enjoyed Sam's company. Maybe she won’t have any trouble working with
Jett. She definitely showed some spunk. He saw that she had been waiting for him
and greeted him with a smile. Sam looked very chic in her pair of white Capri’s
and an emerald green tee shirt which matched the color of her eyes. She had
pulled back her hair into a low ponytail and her sunglasses were perched on her
head.
    “You are fast,” said Ian as he checked his watch. “This is
the first time I had a woman waiting for me.”
    “Ha! You probably have broken hearts all over the place. Remember
what Mattie said? You’re better looking than Jett,” laughed Sam as they walked
to the door.
    “Do you think so?” asked Ian curious to see what Sam would
say.
    “You’re not fishing for a compliment, are you?” Sam looked
at him and felt sorry she
