“Yeah, I guess. Why?”
“You sound tired. Did I wake you? Sorry I missed your call last night”
“No...but I’ve had some stuff happen. How are you?”
“I’m great,” Stephanie replied. “Listen, I know it’s early, but I made an outfit just for you, and I’m dying to show it to you. Can you come over?”
“An outfit? What kind of outfit?”
“Things happened so fast I haven’t had a chance to tell you the big news. I’m launching a line of lingerie called Luscious Lingerie, and Tia is putting her name behind it.”
“You are? She is? Wow, that’s amazing.”
“I’ve designed some pieces for full-figured women, and honestly, I think you’d be an incredible model if you’re interested.”
“Me?”
“Yes, Stella, you!”
“This is so exciting. I’ll be there in ten minutes. Is that okay?”
“The sooner the better.”
“I can’t stay long, though. There’s somewhere I have to be by ten.”
“No problem.”

AT TONY’S HOUSE, HEATHERhad done as he’d instructed, and woken him up with her mouth around his cock. He’d clutched her hair to guide her movements, and she’d loved his control. When he’d roughly placed her on her back, pinned her arms on either side of her head and rammed his hard rod into her warmth, she never wanted it to end—until she was tumbling through a sparkling orgasm.
But a short time later he said she had to leave.
“I hate to rush you off,” he said as he walked her to the sliding glass doors. “Duty calls. I have places to be and people to see, but I’ll call you.”
“You’d better.”
“Or what?” he asked, grinning at her.
“Don’t, and find out.”
He laughed, then spinning her around, he slapped her backside, pushed her onto the terrace and closed the door.
After a quick shower, she settled on her bed with her laptop and began researching Stella Stanley. Many Malibu residents were in the entertainment business, so she went directly to the Internet Movie Data Base. When there were no results, she tried John Stanley. In seconds she learned he was originally from Brooklyn, and now lived in Malibu, California with his wife, Stella.
But there was nothing more,
As she slid the machine off her lap, she remembered seeing Tony and Stella visit Matt. Something was going on between the three of them, but what? A smile curled her lips. The only way to uncover the mystery was to take action.

WHEN STEPHANIE HADcalled, Stella was still in bed. She’d been exhausted from the previous night’s traumatic events and had very little sleep. In spite of her epiphany she was still upset, and recalling the scene in John’s office almost brought her to tears.
But Stephanie’s invitation had given her a reason to get up.
Sitting on the edge of the mattress, she thought about canceling her appointment with Matt. But she wanted to see him, and it would be a welcome distraction. Padding into the bathroom and stepping into the shower, she stood under the hot water. As she closed her eyes, her father’s favorite adage came to mind.
Let things develop. They’ll fall into place. They always do.
