Flynnâs gaze followed that deliciously pert behind until it disappeared into the servery.
The thrill of the chase had always excited him, but this chase was something else. Kat Winwood was hot. Flames and flares and hissing and spitting fireworks hot.
It was amusing to set the bait and sit back and wait for her to take it. She pretended to hate him. To loathe the ground he walked on, the space he occupied. The air he breathed.
But behind the fiery flash of her green-grey gaze he could see something else. Something she was at great pains to conceal. That betraying flicker of attraction. The way her pupils flared like spilled ink. The way she swept the tip of her tongue over her lips. The way her eyes kept tracking to his mouth, as if drawn there by an invisible, irresistible force.
He was a lower-case lover. The chase, the conquest, the donât-call-me-Iâll-call-you was the way he played things now.
And he wanted to play with Kat Winwood.

âI AM NOT serving that man on table nine,â Kat Winwood said to her co-worker Meg on her way through to the café kitchen. Aspiring actor she might be, but being polite to that Savile Rowâsuited, silver-tongued smart ass was way outside Katâs repertoire. She couldnât afford to lose this jobânot unless she got the dream part in the London stage play. The role that would launch her career so she would never have to wait on another table or do another crappyâno pun intendedâtoilet-paper advertisement.
Meg glanced at the man before looking back at Kat. âIsnât that Flynn Carlyon? The hotshot celebrity lawyer to those famous theatre actors Richard and Elisabetta Ravensdale?â
âYes.â Kat gritted her teeth and unloaded the tray, stabbing the knives into the dishwasher basket as if it were Flynn Carlyonâs eye sockets. How had he tracked her down? Again?
Kat didnât want her co-workers or her new boss to know she was Richard Ravensdaleâs scandalous secret. The secret child of his two-night-stand hotel barmaid.
His love child.
Ack. Thinking about the tacky words was bad enough. Seeing them splashed all over every London tabloid for the last three months had been nothing short of excruciating. Toenails-torn-off-with-pliers excruciating. What had love had to do with her conception? She was the product of lust. The dirty little secret Richard had paid to be removed. Obliterated.
So far no one at work had recognised her. So far. She had styled her hair differently so she didnât look like the photos that had been circulated. She had even modified her name so the press would leave her alone. For the last couple of months Flynn had been doing his level best as Richardâs lawyer to get her to play happy families, but she wasnât going to fling her arms around her biological father and say âIâm so glad I found youâ any time soon. Not in this millennium. Or the next. If Flynn thought he could wave big, fat cheques in front of her nose, or wear her down by turning up at her workplaces, then he had better think again.
Meg was looking at Kat with eyes as wide as the plates on the counter. âDo you know him? Personally, I mean?â
âI know enough about him to know he drinks a double-shot espresso with a glass of waterâno iceâon the side,â Kat said.
