Her jaw dropped. “I always notice you. Why do you think I’m at the theater site so often?”

He reached over to run a finger along her jawline. “You’re beautiful, Clio. But you’re so busy with your books and reading about the past, you must not notice the effect you have on everyone in the present.”

“Come up when you’re finished down here.”
He raised a brow. “I don’t have any alarms to check up there.”
That sexy sparkle was back in her eyes. “Then I guess you’ll just have to check me.”
