"You don't know anything about me, Kimberly. Don't assume, and don't guess. You're not good at any of it.”

He rose to his feet and walked away.

I blew out a huge breath. Holy shit, that was the worst start of a working relationship I'd ever had.

I called him an asshole to his face. How did that happen?

Travis Maxwell, theCEO of Maxwell Hotels, greeted me as he stopped by my office the next morning. "I hope you had a good time last night. I didn't tell the team who you were. I wanted you to get a feeling for how everything works."

I nodded. I had been pleased with everything except Kimberly, but I wasn't going to address that. If I was on good terms with Travis, that was all that mattered.

"Remind me, are you staying for another night?" he asked.

"Yeah, for four in total."

"Let's do rounds. I can introduce you to everyone. They should be here by now."

"Sounds good," I said, standing up.

Travis Maxwell seemed like a no-nonsense kind of guy. Kimberly seemed to be his complete opposite.What the hell got into me last night?

I met Dorian, Gina, and Helen first and shook hands with all of them. They were in marketing and sales.

"Welcome to the Maxwell Hotel," they each said.

"Thank you. I'm looking forward to working with all of you."

It was true. I’d come to Chicago for my sister, but I was determined to make the best of everything.

“Let’s go see Kimberly,” Travis suggested, moving through an open door.

He smiled at the two women inside. "Oh, Reese, you're here too. Good. Meet our new general manager, Drake DuGray."
