“Finished.”
Max smiled his rare smile. And it was even more devastating than one of Konner’s. It lit his whole face up, and I knew this smile was genuine.
“Dance with me?”
I hesitated. “Won’t you get in trouble? I thought Secret Service agents weren’t supposed to ‘fraternize with their protectees.’”
“I’m not your Secret Service agent anymore.”
My heart, which had been pounding against my chest, stalled. “Did you say you’re not my agent anymore?” Crap! What had I done?
“Yep.” He drew me in his arms, and began to circle with me in a slow step.
Good lord. I’d forgotten how great Max slow-danced.
I tried to stay cool. “I’m really sorry if I got you in trouble again, Max.”
“Morgan—”
“I’ll get your job back, I promise.”
“Morgan—”
“I’ll talk to my mom….”
“I wasn’t fired.” Max’s head came a little closer to mine. “I asked to be reassigned.”
I swallowed hard. “Why?”
“Because—” He tilted my head up. “I’d rather be your boyfriend than your bodyguard.”
Let me just state for the record, right here, right now. Max Jackson kissed better than he danced.
And you can quote me.
