Hearts On The Line by MissJina

The drop off line at school was filled with many interesting people, and Nadine Clarke was definitely not one of them. Even if the rumor mill was buzzing about her husband ditching her and her two children, she was far from the talk of the town. There were others more interesting than herself like the leather jacket guy. She had her eye on him for a while, along with every other mom during drop off. He somehow always ended up in front of her every morning, until one afternoon when he ended up on the pick up line not looking so hot. His son had puked all over himself in the car, and leather jacket guy was beside himself. Nadine had seen that look from her ex before in the face of vomit, so she did what any mom would do and helped him clean up. Amidst the chaos of angry parents, Nadine introduced herself to find out his name was Lawson Bailey and he was a recently single father of one trying to figure out how to navigate divorce. Later that night at the bar Nadine waitresses at, she comes to find that Lawson was in the new band performing there. Upon realization she tripped over a chair leg and tumbled to the floor. Lawson jumped from the stage, stopping the show before it began, only to have Nadine's nervous stomach become upset all over him.

Sabine Harlow and Shayne Carrington ************ [Can Oil and Water ever mix?] Carrington Enterprises, the most successful Oil Company in Dallas, Texas, comes under a personal siege. Philip Winthrop, owner of Winthrop Oil is still fuming that Bianca Thatcher married Colin Carrington, and not his son, Jagger. Greyson, the CEO, will not let Philip destroy The House of Carrington that his great grandfather built. Enter Shayne Carrington, with steel grey eyes and a chiseled jawline that could cut glass. He becomes the new CFO, at Carrington Enterprises and gains a financial assistant, Sabine Harlow. She feels he needs to be taken down a peg or two with his arrogance. Is his over confidence a mask for deeper hidden feelings? Will their battle of wills lead to a deep love that neither of them expected? "Hello Sabine, I hear we're going to be working together. Please don't think I had anything to do with that decision. Trust me on that! Please try to keep your claws in, during working ours." Shayne smirked as he handed me a file of paperwork with sticky notes. He wrote directions on the outside like I was a kindergartener. "Oh, by the way, your new desk will be outside of my office tomorrow. I'll see you in the morning, Miss Harlow." He moved his thick brown eyebrows up and down. He had the nerve to grin from ear to ear with his arms folded, as he stood before me. I was exasperated with him already. "I have until the end of the day, to decide if I am willing to be your assistant." I snapped at him with an extra smug and cold expression on my face. He leaned over my desk close to my face, with his steel grey eyes. Up close, I saw hints of blue in them. "I have no doubt, that you will be sitting at your desk tomorrow working for Shayne Carrington." He stated a little too sure of himself. I can't do it! Who speaks in third person about themselves?
