Excerpt:
"I want
you to spend the night with me. I'll pay you ten thousand dollars."
Adrian
Scott blinked, wondering if his employer was serious. He'd never heard
of such an offer, except in the movies. "Excuse me?"
"Do you
really need me to repeat myself, or are you simply mulling my proposal
over?" The man's bright blue eyes twinkled. He'd always seemed to have a
spark of mischief about him, along with a genuine smile that he
displayed often. Today was no different. He seemed amused by Adrian's
reaction to his shocking statement.
Adrian
had always found the man attractive, but never let his thoughts go past
that. He ignored the thick, wavy blonde hair, and handsome, chiseled
face. The muscular physique of the man's body looked like it belonged to
someone in his twenties, rather than forties, making it hard to ignore.
But Graham Elliott was not only his boss; he was also a very wealthy
man. Way out of my league. Elliott owned the Las Vegas casino
where Adrian worked as a waiter and sometimes bartender.
Tending
bar was more prestigious and paid better, but nothing could beat the
tips waiters made on busy nights. He'd pocketed several hundred dollars
on many occasions. To Adrian, it was all about the money.
"What
about Celina?" He was curious how Elliott's live-in girlfriend might
feel about the proposed arrangement. A stacked beauty-- she had flowing
red hair, tits out to there--and was a fixture around the casino. She and
Elliott shared the penthouse apartment, which by all accounts was one
incredible showplace. Adrian wouldn't know; the man's grand office was
the closest he'd ever gotten to his employer.
Elliott
flexed his fingers. "Celina and I have an understanding. I don't worry
about how much she spends on her daily shopping sprees, and she doesn't
worry if I don't come home at night. I keep a suite on the floor below
the penthouse for, shall we say, special occasions."
Heat
flushed through Adrian's body. He knew his face was probably bright red.
Even with the year-round tan afforded him by the strong Nevada sun; he
blushed like an idiot when embarrassed. "Is that what I am? A special
occasion?"
"I hope
so. I've been watching you, Adrian. I like the way you look in the
tight, black pants you wear to work. Makes me very interested to
find out what lies beneath."
His mind
raced. He wasn't seeing anyone, so that wouldn't be a problem. But he
really liked his job, and worried that if things didn't go right, he
might suddenly find himself out of work. "I'm concerned this could
interfere with my job."
"If you
say no? Of course it won't. All I ask is your discretion. Keep quiet,
and things go on as usual. If I discover you've told anyone about our
conversation, you'll certainly be let go."
It
occurred to Adrian, he'd never considered saying no. "And if I say yes?"
A slow
smile spread across Elliott's face. "Nothing that happens between us
will put your job in jeopardy. Again, all I ask is discretion--and a
blood test. Hate to be crass, but I need to see the paperwork from a
test done on today's date, or after. I'll provide you the same
courtesy."
Adrian
looked him in the eye. "And fifty thousand dollars."
The man's
eyebrows rose.
"For two
nights. Eight at night to eight in the morning, I'm all yours."
Squinting
before he nodded, Elliott added, "I'll accept those terms, in part. Make
it three nights, and you've got yourself a deal."
Adrian
stood. "Agreed." He extended his hand.
Graham
Elliott took his time rising and reaching out to shake. His hand was
warm, his grip firm.
The man
squeezed his fingers, making a tingle zip down Adrian's spine. He
imagined those strong hands caressing other parts of his body. It was
enough to harden his cock, right there in the office. He tried to speak,
but his mouth was dry.
Releasing
his grasp, Elliott reached for a business card. "Call me when you've got
the paperwork. We'll arrange a date to meet."
"I will."
He tucked the card into his pocket. "Thank you, sir."
With
another nod and a very quick wink, Elliott turned and walked out the
back door.
Adrian
glanced around the office, taking a moment to compose himself before
returning to the casino floor. Who would have thought it? Graham
Elliott was gay--or perhaps bisexual, if he'd sampled the wares Celina
flaunted around the bar and gaming tables. It was an incredible turn of
events. And perhaps the most amazing stroke of luck he'd ever
encountered.

NOTHING BUT TROUBLE
is a wonderfully sensual m/m romance. Jamie Hill really nailed all the
emotions of the characters and kept me feeling like I was actually
living their story. The romance is totally heartfelt, it has a very
emotional story line, the sex scenes are divine and I was left with a
feeling of utter completion after finishing this story.

Throw two men
together like Adrian and Graham and you get a very hot story. Jamie Hill
puts a very different spin on the classic office romance story...Once
you pick it up you won't want it to end and you'll only want to read
more.
