NYC Angels: An Explosive Reunion. Alison Roberts
to find a way of being able to work in the same hospital.
A corner of Alex’s mouth lifted in a wry smile. Maybe he’d subconsciously realised that what he needed was to have Layla avoid him. The way she had after Jamie’s death when she wouldn’t even acknowledge him. All that was needed was a good push to get her started and what better way than a public refusal to let her jerk his strings?
Alex stood under the cool shower, letting the sweat sluice away. Be nice if the demons could get washed away as easily but he’d soon find out if he’d made life any easier for himself by what he’d just done. Monthly Report would be well and truly over by the time he was dressed again.
The discussion about Tyler’s case was taking off now. They might finish a few minutes early but there certainly wouldn’t be time for another case.
The gap left by the unpresented case would probably be old news by the time everybody headed back to their normal routines. They would all move on with ease.
The way Layla and Alex needed to if they were both going to keep their jobs and work together.
Maybe what was stopping them was that it was unfinished business.
And if there was something that bothered Layla more than being the subject of gossip it was having unfinished business hanging over her.
Mulling it over as she headed back to her office, Layla realised that dealing with this particular business would be dangerous. The tingle that kissed her skin as if she could still feel Alex’s presence in this private room was enough of a warning. The way the memory of that kiss was lingering rang an even louder alarm.
But facing something dangerous … and winning … was kind of an attractive challenge.
And Dr Layla Woods had always found a challenge irresistible.
Besides, it could be good for both of them. She had a responsibility to try and ensure that the senior staff members could work together on good terms, didn’t she?
Of course she did.
Layla took a moment to enjoy the view from her window. Plan B was beginning to shape up rather nicely.
