Five Star Seduction. Jacquelin Thomas
“I love you, too. It’s because of you that I never missed out on having a sister. You have always been there for me.”
“I feel the same way about you. I will never forget the day you went after those boys who stole my bicycle. They nearly beat you to a pulp, but you didn’t give up. You brought my bike back to me.”
Tyrese laughed at the memory. “It didn’t belong to them. I was not going to let them keep it. It took two days for me to steal it back.”
“You are such a wonderful person, Tyrese,” Pilar murmured. “I just wish you’d open your heart. Let someone love you.”
He shook his head. “Let’s not go there.”
“Tyrese—”
“No, Pilar,” he said. “Don’t worry about me. You focus on yourself. As for me, there is no room for romance in my busy schedule.”
They finished lunch and headed to the office.
The very moment that Pilar and Zaire saw one another, they embraced and settled down in her office to catch up.
Tyrese had a feeling that he wouldn’t see Pilar for a few hours.
Smiling, he made his way to his office. He would catch up with Pilar later that evening. They were having dinner together at his house.

“We feel confident that the Willow Creek Ranch can provide one of the most successful experiences ever for your group....” Zaire said as she paced back and forth across the floor of her office.
She turned around to find Tyrese standing in her doorway. Strangely, it came as no surprise to see him there.
“I was practicing my presentation.”
“You have nothing to worry about,” Tyrese said. “You’re a natural.”
Zaire rewarded him with a smile. “How long have you been standing there? Did you hear my whole presentation?”
“Pretty much,” he admitted.
She folded her arms across her chest. “So what do you think? Honestly.”
“You did a good job,” Tyrese said.
“But I want it to be great,” Zaire responded in earnest. “What can I do to really make this shine?”
He pointed to her laptop. “Don’t use visual aids as a crutch. Strategically place visual aids in your presentation to highlight the major points. Trust me—your style and personality will have much more impact.”
“Anything else?” she asked.
“Don’t let him conclude the meeting with the idea of getting back to you, Zaire. We want him to determine the next steps right then before life gets in the way.” He smiled at her. “You are going to do a fantastic job.”
“Thanks. Will you or Pilar be here for the meeting?”
Tyrese nodded. “We both plan to attend, if you don’t mind.”
“I welcome it,” Zaire told him with a smile. “I’d like to see your friendly faces in the room.”
He was so handsome in his navy suit that her breath practically caught in her throat. Zaire swallowed tightly as she averted her gaze. She needed to maintain her focus and mentally prepare for her meeting with Bill Daniels.
