The woman’s back was to them, but it was obvious what must’ve piqued his cousin’s interest.
Legs. Gorgeous long legs beneath a tight, knee-length skirt. And those legs ended in heels that lifted her a few additional inches above her female counterparts nearby.
Add in a slim waist and long wavy brown hair, and she was already a knockout—and that was just from behind.
Ryan nudged him and silently mouthed,“So hot.”
James just shook his head and bit back a sigh.
“How’s the first day on the job?” Ryan called as they approached.
She turned, and the motion swept her hair over her shoulder to reveal her face.
No.
“Hey, Ryan. It’s going good.” Her attention was completely on his cousin.
No fucking way. Maybe she had a twin?
“So glad to hear that.” Ryan gestured to him. “James, I’d like you to meet Vict—”
“Tori?”

Oh, for thelove of all things holy.
How was this happening?
Tori’s eyes widened slightly, but she kept the friendly smile pasted on her face.
“Hello, James. I didn’t realize you worked at Wright and Williams.”
“Wait, you two know each other?” Ryan’s brows knit as he swept his gaze between her and James.
She could practically hear James’s teeth snap together before he composed himself enough to answer.
“She’s my sister’s best friend.”
“No kidding? You know my cousin, Kris?” Ryan’s smile widened.
“Cousin?” Her gaze shot to him and then to James again. “Then that would make you—”
“Also my cousin,” Ryan quipped with that glaringly white grin. “Small world. I had no clue you were friends with my cousins during the interview.”
Neither had she. Would it have made a difference? Would she have walked away from the job offer?
No.
This was a pretty sweet job for someone who’d only gotten her BA last year. Not to mention it would look fantastic on a resume.
And for Ryan to call whatever she had with James a friendship was laughable.
He was more of a JILF.
Jerk I’d like to fu—
“James is an associate here at the firm,” Ryan breezed on. “He’s taking the bar in a couple weeks and already making a name for himself around here.”
