courses of action with Mrs. Brewer and based on her feedback, believe we’ve got a direction. We’ll discuss it further this afternoon.”
    “Aren’t you meeting her today?”
    “Yes, at two.”
    “Why not have her sign papers then?”
    “She said she wants to discuss the plan in person before we do that.”
    “I see,” Mr. Drew said and stepped forward, his crisp dark suit barely moving. He sat in her visitor’s chair and Nadia decided that was an open invitation. She toddled to him and held out her book.
    “Up.”
    Kara’s face burst into flames but Mr. Drew just lifted her daughter to his knee without so much as a stutter in the directions she only just noticed he was giving her.
    “…think we should consider some high-risk investments, as well.”
    “Yes, uh, of course.” Kara made a note while he spoke. After they’d discussed every one of her clients, he shifted Nadia to his other knee and cleared his throat.
    “I have a new client for you.”
    Kara’s eyes widened. Of all the things he could have said, she hadn’t expected that. Since Nadia was born, she’d cut back her hours even though she knew that risked career growth, but right now, time with her daughter was more important than bonuses and promotions.
    “What do you know about Ronald T. Saxon?”
    Kara’s eyes went even wider. “Of Saxony House?” The Saxon family owned a string of high-end department stores, not to mention a variety of properties up and down the east coast.
    “The same. Ronald T. asked for you personally. He’d like to meet you today.”
    She almost winced. “Today’s not good, Mr. Drew. I have to arrange alternative care for Nadia.”
    “See what you can do. He’s interested in wealth management and establishing a charitable foundation.” He stood up, put Nadia on the floor and grinned. “Any questions?”
    Oh, boy. Oh, wow. Kara was practically dancing in her chair. “Yes, one. How does Mr. Saxon feel about kids?”
    Mr. Drew grinned. “That’s what the charitable foundation is for.” He took out his cell phone, tapped the screen. “I’ll have the file sent to you.”
    Kara nodded, knowing his assistant would do so in moments.
    “Keep me posted,” he said with a nod and left her office.
    “Oh! Excuse me.”
    Kara bit back a curse when her sister, Elena, collided with Mr. Drew at the door. “Mr. Drew, this is my sister, Elena.”
    “Miss Larsen,” he extended a hand. “Nice to meet you. I take it you’re called in on babysitting detail?”
    Elena flicked a glance at her sister, who nodded. “Yes. The nanny had a medical emergency today.”
    “Well, thank you for your fast response. I’m glad Kara has you to help.”
    “Wow.” Elena shot her a sly grin after the office door shut behind Mr. Drew. “He’s quite the hottie.”
    Kara rolled her eyes. “Is that why you neglected to mention you’re Mrs. Adair now?” She asked, with a pointed look at the rings on her sister’s left hand.
    “Oh, please. I only said he’s cute in that Wall Street wolf kind of way. I never said I was ready to leave Lucas for him.”
    Kara considered that. Jonathan Drew was a handsome man but… aside from the fact that he was her boss and therefore, off-limits, she’d never thought of him as such.
    Elena angled her head. “There’s no spark. No look.”
    Yes! Kara nodded. That was it exactly. He was just another human in the same orbit. They didn’t have any connection beyond that. Since Nadia was born, Kara hadn’t felt that spark with anyone and sometimes wondered if it was gone for good.
    Suddenly, Elena gasped and her face split into a wide grin. “There’s my girl!” She bent over and snatched a squealing Nadia from the floor, pressing loud kisses to her chubby cheeks. “So how’s Beth?”
    “Beth’s fine, it’s her mom. She’d been having some pain in her abdomen and went to see the doctor. They suspect cancer.”
    “Oh, God, no.” Elena’s eyes shut and she held Nadia just a little bit
