Lyndsey McCord works the night shift for ARC Security & Investigation as a transcriber. It's been 3 months and the elusive Nate Caldwell (one of the three owners) catches her distributing files and demands to know who she is & what she's doing there. Nate convinces her to assist him with a "fidelity" case and they have to pretend to be married which forces them to became up close and a little personal. After the assignment is over, Lyndsey knows what she wants-she's been fantasizing about him for months but she leaves it up to Nate to decide whether they can have more than an employee/employer relationship. Nate enjoyed spending the weekend with Lyndsey but doesn't do "relationships", plus he is her BOSS.Lyndsey is an independent & intelligent character who realizes that her time with Nate may be short but would rather have him on a short-term basis than not at all. Nate knows Lyndsey is not his type but he just can't seem to drag up enough willpower to resist her.
