Sighing, Bria leaned back against the comfy leather headrest.
What could she say—she was interested in a guy she’d barely known for two days? A guy she’d probably never see again, despite his prophesising to the contrary.
Lou squealed. ‘You’ve met someone, haven’t you? Come on, I want to hear every last, juicy detail.’
Smiling, Bria said, ‘There’s not much to tell, actually. We met briefly at the conference I told you about. Had dinner the first night, spent a pretty romantic day together the next, and that was it.’
Apart from that one scintillating farewell kiss she couldn’t forget…
‘What do you mean, that was it? Aren’t you going to see him again?’
Bria shook her head, wishing she didn’t feel so lousy at the thought of not basking in the heat of Sam’s chocolate gaze ever again.
‘He lives in London. I live in Sydney. End of story.’
Lou rolled her eyes. ‘What is it with you and London guys?’
‘You promised me you’d never refer to him again, remember?’
The mere thought of Ellis and the time she’d wasted trying to make a go of their relationship had her ready to run screaming into the desert.
‘Good point.’
Lou paused for a second but Bria could tell it wouldn’t be for long, not with her friend’s blue eyes gleaming.
‘But as for this new guy… I haven’t heard you mention a guy in the last two years, let alone go on a date with anyone, so he has to be something. As for the distance thing, ever heard of email, phone calls, even flying to visit?’
Bria waved away the suggestions, hating the fact she’d contemplated them all herself many times on the long flight from Australia to Dubai.
‘Too complicated. Besides, long-distance relationships aren’t my thing.’
‘Relationships aren’t your thing full-stop, since that dweeb Ellis. Not every guy’s like him, and it’s about time you gave yourself a break.’
‘It wasn’t all his fault, you know. I basically went into that relationship to test the waters, to see if anything could develop between us.’
Lou snorted. ‘The guy was a cold fish and had dollar signs in his eyes. You wanted to make a go of it, he wanted the prestige the Green name could bring him. He was a creep.’
