He nodded. “A flight paramedic. And you’re apparently a flight nurse. With Redbird, I take it.”
“Yes, but—but what are you doinghere?”
“I told you I lived in Montana. Marietta, Montana, is my hometown. The question is what are you doing here? You told me you lived in Texas.”
“I did until I took this job.”
“Small world.”
You can say that again.“So we’ll be working together.”
“Since you’re a flight nurse and we both appear to be based here, I’d say there’s a real good chance of that. I can’t believe you’re here. Coincidence or fate?”
“I don’t believe in fate.”
“I don’t believe in coincidence.”
She decided to be blunt and firm. “Connor, I had a great time with you but I never expected to see you again.”
“I never expected to see you again either. But I can’t say I’m sorry. In fact, I couldn’t be happier. You have no idea how many times I’ve thought about you. I tried to find you but without a last name I didn’t get anywhere. I knew you lived in Texas but it’s a big state.”
Oh, God. She wasn’t about to tell him she’d dreamed about him nearly every night since their one night together. “We’re going to be working together.”
“Yeah. We established that.”
He was every bit as hot as she remembered. Damn it. “We can’t… Nothing can happen between us.”
He rubbed the back of his neck and looked puzzled. “Why not?”
“I don’t date co-workers.”
“Why not?” he repeated.
“Because my ex-husband and I worked together. And you know how that turned out. No way am I doing that again.”
