Marcy held her breath. She had no right to ask him such a question. He was her employer, even if only temporarily, and she found him incredibly, inappropriately sexy and appealing, but she really shouldn’t be so personal.

“You have?”
“Since first sight.”
“Which was only—” she did some quick calculations “—seventeen hours ago.”
“First sight,” he repeated.
