Excerpt

“Tell me about yourself. Your bio online said that you were a doctor,” he says between bites.

Swallowing down the lump in my throat, I internally coax myself to relax and enjoy my meal regardless of how this plays out. Conversation regarding my career is often where things with men change. The intimidation factor, Genevieve calls it.

“I’m a surgeon. I went into medical school fully planning to become an Ob/Gyn. I wanted to help couples bring new life into the world. But I did a medical mission abroad one summer with Operation Smile, and fell in love with surgery. The ability to transform someone’s life. What an incredible gift it is.”

Sam appears stunned. His cutlery clinks against his plate as he abruptly puts it down, beaming across the table at me. “Wow. You’re fucking incredible.”

My eyes shoot open in disbelief at his declaration. I grab my water to clear my throat fearing, in my shock, the piece of asparagus I was eating may have gotten lodged there.

“And so humble. You barely mention your career and here you’re doing something so noble every single day while I’m blathering on about slinging wine.” He shakes his head. “That’s fucking hot.”

My cheeks blush at the Paris Hilton like compliment.

“The amount of work and training you must’ve put in to get to where you are. It’s really impressive.” He startles me by placing his hand over mine. “I can only imagine how your patients must feel, having you in their corner in their time of need.”

Is this guy still in PR mode? I’d like to think he’s genuine, but honestly, Sam is a complete mystery to me. I don’t know what to make of him.

“Thank you. I appreciate you saying that.”

However, instead of returning my smile I witness a deep V develop between Sam’s brows before his skin turns ashen. It’s the polar opposite of the way he’d been looking over my shoulder earlier. Yet before I can ask what is happening, a thunderous sound reverberates behind me.

“Get your fucking hand off my wife!”
