She stopped laughing long enough to realize that the tense muscles in her back and neck had relaxed. They were airborne and the plane was leveling off. She nodded. “Much. Thank you.”
He winked at her. “Good. Now, I assume that in addition to being assigned babysitting duty, you tagged along so we could go over a few things.”
She nodded, pulling her portfolio from her bag. “How far outside the box are you willing to go?”
Nate crooked a brow and shifted in his seat, folding his right ankle over his left knee. “What do you mean?”
“A popular home improvement show is looking for a few celebs who want to surprise a family member with a kitchen redo. Marcus suggested they do your mom’s kitchen.”
“That means my parents would have to be on the show.” He ran a hand over his head. “Don’t know if I like that. They don’t like being in the spotlight.”
“Marcus said your mom loves these shows and she’s always wanted to be on one.” She tapped her pen on her pad. “This is a great opportunity for you to do something fabulous for her, Nate. Something you’ve always wanted to do. The bonus is it would be great for your image, too.”

“I don’t need you standing next to me like some ventriloquist.” Nate’s tone was tinged with annoyance. “I know what to say to these guys.”
“Great. Then you won’t mind running it by me.” Kendra gave Nate a warm smile, but he wasn’t buying it. “I’m here to ensure you’re prepared for these meetings and that we stay on message, but I won’t be in any of them. These guys are like your family. It’ll only make things weirder if I’m there.”
“Good.” He nodded, seemingly relieved.
“Let’s just go over the basics of what you plan to say to Wade. I’ll check out a restaurant in town and get some work done while you meet with him.”
