Chapter 1

Aurora ā€“ a woman who thinks she has everything under control

ā€œCome on. Come on,ā€ I mutter as I dance in front of the stupid automatic doors at the emergency room.

The doors finally begin to open and I force myself through the gap. My purse gets caught ā€“ Ugh! I donā€™t have time for this! ā€“ and I tug on it until it flies through the opening and slaps me on the thigh.

I ignore the pain and run to the nurseā€™s station. ā€œJett Peterson,ā€ I gasp out. ā€œWhere is he?ā€

The nurse purses her lips as she fiddles with her computer. ā€œThere is no Jett Peterson here,ā€ she finally says.

ā€œBut I was notifiedā€”ā€

I slam my mouth shut when I realize of course thereā€™s no Jett Peterson. Jett would never use his real name. Duh. The groupies from Cash & the Sinners would have the hospital surrounded in no time while they screamed the drummerā€™s name.

And it would be my job to get rid of them, manage the press, and ensure Jett wasnā€™t bothered. Itā€™s not as if their manager, my boss, would handle any of the work.

I clear my throat and try again. ā€œDo you have an Evel Knievel?ā€

Since Jett is an adrenaline junkie, he often uses the stunt performerā€™s name when heā€™s incognito. How itā€™s incognito to use the name of a stuntman whoā€™s been dead for over a decade is beyond my comprehension. But it usually works.

The nurse consults her computer again. ā€œHeā€™s in exam room three.ā€

ā€œThank you,ā€ I say as I hurry toward the exam rooms.

I wish I could say I donā€™t know where exam room three is, but this is not my first rodeo at the hospital with Jett. Not even close. I hope he hasnā€™t broken any bones. Despite what he thinks, he canā€™t go on stage with a broken arm.

The doctor is exiting the room when I arrive. I stop him.

ā€œDoctor.ā€ I flash him a smile. ā€œHow is he?ā€

ā€œHe has a concussion and several contusions but no broken bones.ā€

No broken bones is good but a concussion is not.

ā€œHow severe is the concussion? Will you be keeping him overnight? Does he need any additional tests? Does someone need to stay with him? Does he have any memory loss?ā€

The doctorā€™s eyes widen at my rapid-fire questions. Like I said. Not my first rodeo.

ā€œItā€™s a mild concussion but we need to keep him overnight for observation.ā€

I frown. Jett is going to lose his mind when he hears he has to stay overnight in the hospital. For someone who thinks itā€™s fun to jump out of perfectly fine airplanes, he has an aversion to hospitals. The emergency room is okay, but put him on a bed and wheel him toward the elevator? He loses his dang mind.

Could this day get any worse?

ā€œWeā€™ll need a private room and a service elevator to transfer him upstairs.ā€

The doctor sighs. ā€œI guess he wasnā€™t lying about being a rockstar.ā€

ā€œSorry.ā€

ā€œIā€™ll send someone over to help with the arrangements.ā€

ā€œThank you.ā€

He walks off with a scowl on his face and I face the door. I straighten my back and gather my courage for another encounter with Jett the man who has a smile and a laugh for everyone but me. To me, heā€™s an asshole. He makes me question my decision to remain the personal assistant for Cash & the Sinners at least twenty times a day.

The bandā€™s manager, Mike, has offered me other bands to assist numerous times. Iā€™ve turned him down each and every time. Iā€™ve got the rest of the band members properly trained. I donā€™t want to start all over again.

Here goes nothing.

I push through the door and march into the room. I skid to a halt when my eyes land on Jett lying in the hospital bed. My heart thuds in my chest and my breath hitches. The man is a jerk but heā€™s a mighty fine jerk.

His shirt is off, showcasing his toned chest and abs. How I long to lick every inch of those hard muscles. I would outline his tattoos with my tongue while my hands explored every inch of him. I fist my hands before I reach for him.

I may long to spend nights tangled up in sweaty sheets with him, but Jett has made it perfectly obvious what he thinks of me. Not much.

ā€œAurora!ā€

His shout has me lifting my gaze to meet his. Those piercing blue eyes I want to drown in are currently filled with warmth. How I wish they were filled with warmth because heā€™s happy to see me. Heā€™s not. He wants something.   

He winks at the nurse cleaning his forehead. ā€œSheā€™s here to spring me out of here.ā€

And there you have it. The reason he appears happy to see me.

ā€œNo can do. Youā€™re here for the night.ā€

His eyes narrow at me and he scowls.

I motion toward his head. ā€œYou have a concussion.ā€

He bats his eyelashes and sticks out his bottom lip. A lip I long to bite. ā€œBut I hate hospitals.ā€

The nurse steps away from him and I gasp. My feet hurry to him before I can order them to stay where they are.

I lift his hair to study his wound and nearly moan when I feel how silky it feels. Great. Another item to add to the list of ā€˜things I fantasize about on Jettā€™s bodyā€™. I force those thoughts out of my mind. No drooling over a rockstar when heā€™s got a big gash on his forehead.

ā€œYou have stitches.ā€

ā€œDidnā€™t Nurse Luna do a wonderful job of stitching me up?ā€ He winks at the nurse again, and I drop my hand.

What am I doing? No touching Jett.

Luna giggles. ā€œYou were an excellent patient.ā€

ā€œHeā€™s had enough practice,ā€ I mumble under my breath.

ā€œNurse Luna doesnā€™t think I need to stay in the hospital overnight.ā€ Jett wiggles his eyebrows at her and she practically swoons.

ā€œHe can stay with me. I promise Iā€™ll watch over him all night long.ā€

ā€œNo can do. The doctor says you have to stay overnight for observation.ā€

ā€œBut I would have a nurse to personally take care of me,ā€ Jett pleads.

Luna giggles. Itā€™s obvious what her idea of caring for Jett means.

Rockstars are a pain in my ass. Why did I beg Mike to hire me again? Oh yeah, no one else would give me a job straight out of college and with no experience.

I cross my arms over my chest and stare Jett down. ā€œAnd what happened the last time you left the hospital with a nurse?ā€

He smirks. ā€œI had an excellent time.ā€

ā€œAnd?ā€

He huffs. He doesnā€™t want to admit to what happened in front of the nurse.

ā€œAnd?ā€ I push because pushing is what I do best.

Jett glares at me but he canā€™t hold my glare for long. Not to brag but I have the best ā€˜stare down a rockstar glareā€™ there is. I could probably teach classes and make a million dollars. Except most people donā€™t want to stare down a rockstar.  

ā€œThe paparazzi found out where I was and rushed the house,ā€ he finally admits.

ā€œAnd what happened to your companion?ā€

He ducks his chin. ā€œThe press wasnā€™t nice to her.ā€

I nod to Nurse Luna. ā€œAnd now you understand why I canā€™t allow him to go home with you.ā€

ā€œCanā€™t allow him?ā€ She snorts. ā€œYouā€™re not his keeper.ā€

I kind of am. But if the paparazzi donā€™t scare her, itā€™s time to try another tactic. I whip a non-disclosure agreement out of my bag. ā€œIā€™m going to have to insist you sign this.ā€

Her nose wrinkles and she steps back.

I shake the document at her. ā€œSorry, honey. Itā€™s nothing personal, but it is mandatory.ā€

She snatches the paper and reads the first line. ā€œNon-disclosure agreement? You want me to sign this?ā€ she asks Jett.

He shrugs. ā€œThe pleasure of doing business with me.ā€

ā€œBut it says I canā€™t tell anyone about you.ā€ She flips through the pages. ā€œI canā€™t post a picture of you on social media. I canā€™t even tell my friends I had sex with a rockstar.ā€

I hold out a pen. ā€œItā€™s standard boilerplate in the industry. Iā€™m sure you understand.ā€

She throws the agreement at me. ā€œNo thanks.ā€ She marches out of the room.

I wait until the door shuts on her before addressing Jett. ā€œWhat happened?ā€

ā€œYou were being your usual bitch self.ā€

I lock my muscles before I cringe at his use of the word bitch. Itā€™s not the first time heā€™s called me one. And it wonā€™t be the last. Being a personal assistant to a rock band is full of fun times.

I point to his forehead and repeat my question. ā€œWhat happened?ā€

ā€œItā€™s no big deal.ā€

I sigh. I determine whatā€™s a big deal and what isnā€™t. Not him.

ā€œWas the press there? Did anyone notice you? What kind of media circus am I dealing with?ā€

He crosses his arms over his chest and I bite my bottom lip as I imagineā€”

Stop it, Aurora. You are not ogling the man when heā€™s in a hospital bed. Correction. You are not ogling the man. Period. End of discussion.

ā€œAll you care about is your job. What about me and my injuries?ā€

I snort. ā€œConsidering you just tried to pick up the nurse, I think youā€™re fine.ā€

He grins. ā€œShe was pretty hot, wasnā€™t she?ā€

Luna was blonde and had legs up to my neck. In other words, we have nothing in common. I ignore the twinge of jealousy in my stomach. Iā€™ve had enough experience ignoring it by now.

ā€œShe was definitely your type,ā€ I mutter as I pull up the entertainment news on my phone.

I should know better by now than to ask the universe if things could get worse.
