had a thing for older women. How could she forget?
    The gorgeous blonde held a sincere smile as she gently patted his hand wrapped around her arm.
    Grayson’s gaze moved from his arm candy and took in his surroundings. He frowned at a group of men standing idly in the corner, then nodded his approval at the painters working on the exotic flower mural behind the reception desk.
    Thyme studied him as he inspected the artwork. He wore a bright blue button-down shirt and black slacks that she was sure fit his tight butt to perfection. Her belly betrayed her by quivering at the sight of him. The blue shirt made the color of his eyes pop, even from thirty feet away. She could read the intensity on his face as he took in all the commotion going on around him. Then he continued scanning and stopped when he met Thyme’s heated stare.
    She quirked an eyebrow and rested one hand on her hip before shooting him a fiery glare. He stopped in his tracks, nearly tripping the woman on his arm. She, too, looked around and spotted Thyme. Then Maddie. Then smiled. A real smile, not the What the hell do you want with my boss? smile the redhead gave her.
    Damn. She really didn’t want to like the cougar. No, the woman wasn’t old enough to be a cougar, or maybe she was, it was hard to tell from afar. The way she carried herself and wore her hair and makeup screamed rich and upper class, and her skin had to have been touched by a plastic surgeon to be so smooth and flawless. Her white fitted dress was stylish and mature, not sexy and showy like the redhead’s.
    Thyme looked down at her twenty-dollar dress, sucked in her stomach, and threw her shoulders back, even though the extra inch of height wasn’t going to bring her any closer to Red’s or the classy lady’s height. Vertically challenged, she was.
    Red huffed and stormed off toward Grayson, most likely in an attempt to warn him of the shorty with the kid who wanted to harass him. He shook his head and smiled, lightly resting his hand on Red’s shoulder, never taking his gaze away from Thyme.
    Once again she got all tingly and melty inside. Surely it was from the Arubian heat. Definitely not from the sexy man who had two beautiful women draped all over him.
    Red flicked her hair over her shoulder and stormed off. He turned to face the classy one, whispering something in her ear before kissing her on the cheek, and leading her down the hallway to the left. Once she was halfway down the hall, he turned and his long legs carried him to Thyme and Maddie.
    “Hi, Grayson. You should see my room. It has a big bed and a tub that can fit four people. Thyme said so. We went to the beach, even though it’s January, and swimming and in the hot tub. But Thyme said I can’t stay in too long or I’d cook and then she’d have to eat me for dinner.”
    Grayson’s eyes twinkled, causing what was becoming a too-common stir in her belly, and crouched in front of Maddie. “I’m glad you like your room. I’ll have to come see it soon.” He playfully tugged on her ponytail.
    “Since we haven’t seen you in the four days we’ve been here, I thought I’d stop by, you know, to let you know we’re in town,” Thyme said pleasantly, her glare not matching her tone.
    Grayson caught on to her sarcasm and stood, towering over her. “I apologize, Thyme. Things have not been going smoothly here and I haven’t had a chance to get away.”
    “Yeah, looks like you’ve been up to your eyeballs in work.”
    “I have.”
    She’d only seen the man twice before. The first time he’d just learned he was a father. The second was the morning after when reality sort of sunk in. However, today he appeared more stressed and frazzled than upon learning he had a child. Maybe the bazillionaire with more women than he knew what to do with really was working overtime?
    “Phone’s not up and running around here yet?” She wasn’t about to back down and let the man get away with neglecting his daughter all
