    Summary

    “Tim, I’m taking care of you,” her voice was stern, hard, and rigid.

    He didn’t have a choice in the matter. He could see the determination and pleading in her eyes.

    “Please,” she added after, softer, more forgiving.

    “Okay,” Tim relented with his head down. “You’re taking care of me.”

    Summary

    Everyone knew that Tim Bradford was a grumpy hardass.

    Not everyone had to spend 12+ hours a day with him as a direct supervisor capable of getting them fired.

    Everyone knew that Bradford was in a foul mood today.

    Not everyone had to figure out why.

    Touch-starved, Lucy thought. That’s what her therapist would call it. The kind of man who’d die for people, but didn’t think he was allowed to need them.

    Tim is touchstarved, Lucy Notices
