And it had been a hell of a show.

“Is this what you do all the time?” She
rushed through the words like she was trying to think of something
to say to cover up her embarrassment. “Fix things?”

“I own a construction company.” Noah rested
his hand on the stair railing. “I’m helping out my dad until he’s
back on his feet.”

“Where do you want to start?” Jett said.

How about you showing me anything that needs
to be fixed in your bedroom. I’d be glad to start there. Noah
groaned inwardly. He had to get rid of these thoughts and get rid
of them now.

“Wherever you’d like me to,” he said.

Jett’s robe started to slip apart again. “I
suppose you can start with hanging the drapes.”

“You’ve got it.” He started toward the
stairs. “Just need to get my tools and I’ll take care of it.”

“I’ll be in my bedroom.” Jett backed up, in
the direction of the door to the master bedroom. “I need to shower
and get dressed.”

Just her words gave Noah plenty of vivid
fantasies to dwell on as he nodded and headed down the stairs.
