No one would be able to place their faith in a woman who claimed to want to work with them when they’d only seen each other once. To make matters worse, said woman was a competitor’s wife.

“Ooh, a challenge. I like it.” Shane was thoroughly interested now. “I’m very interested in working with you, Mrs. Holcomb. I’ll need to see how you perform, though–let’s start with you scoring the deal with Mimosa.”
