Rico didn’t usually ring her during office hours. Was something wrong? ‘Hello, Rico?’ ‘Ella bellezza, do you have your diary handy?’ ‘Yes. Why?’ ‘I need to book a meeting with you.’ ‘You’re seeing me tonight,’ she said. ‘Why do you need to book a meeting with me?’ ‘Because the meeting’s going to be about business and tonight’s going to be about …’ He laughed. ‘Wait and see. Though benefits might be involved later.’ Warmth spread through her. ‘What kind of business are we talking about?’ she asked. ‘A potential commission. A cake for a launch party in a month’s time. So where do you want to meet? Your kitchen, or my office?’ She frowned again. ‘Your office is in Rome.’ He coughed. ‘My London office.’ Then the penny dropped. ‘You bought the hotel?’ ‘Yup. We’re re-launching The Fountain in four weeks. Is that enough notice for you to make me a cake?’ ‘Should be. Though we’ll need to talk about size.’ He gave a rich chuckle that had her blushing.
