    Summary

    Jack Abbot has two rules as a widower.

    1. He will not enter into a sexual relationship or have sexual relations with anyone who works at PTMC.
    2. No falling in love.

    Tinder is convenient, in that respect. Until it's not.

    Summary

    “Are you lonely, Jack?” She looks at him, the corner of her mouth quirking up into a smile that doesn’t touch her eyes. “Because I think I’ve spent the last few years pretending that I’m not and it’s the one thing I’ve. . .” A huff of a humorless laugh. “Failed spectacularly at.”

    Jack frowns, deep enough to feel his forehead creasing. “You’re too hard on yourself.”

    She tilts her head, the smile the same. “You didn’t answer my question.”

    Jack has made it a point in his life to never lie to Samira, and he’s done a damn good job of it. He is many things, but a liar is not one of them—save for the rare occasion where a lie could change someone’s life. When it comes to Samira, he has no secrets. After all, it’s not lying if she’s never asked him, specifically, about his feelings for her, so there’s never a reason to brandish that particular truth. He’s pretty good at finding loopholes, too.

    So he doesn’t lie to her now. “Yeah. I am.”

    Summary

    Samira wanted to close her eyes, to sink into the comfort of not feeling so seen by those intense hazel eyes of his, to lie and say it was some inane thing, but she couldn't. She couldn't look away from him, and she never was very good at lying to anyone, let alone him.
