Third Time's A Charmer

By Jodi St. John

Olivia loves living life on the road. It gives her the ability to run from the pain of her past. She's had amazing love...and devastating loss. Running, in her mind, is the only way to survive. She keeps moving to prevent the pain from catching her.Until Harris, Britain's biggest pop star, globally charming, savvy, loyal and drop dead gorgeous.Now the stakes are higher, her life has changed at lightening speed and Olivia's not sure what to do. She knows she can't handle another one of life's blows...and to risk her heart again might be too much."The lake place always made Olivia calm. It was home even though she was rarely ever there. After the accident, she did anything she could to run away, leaving everything and everyone she knew behind. For the last few years she worked with up-and-coming musical talent to build their brand and image. She had seen tremendous success with a few of the bands. Once they rose to the popularity they were seeking, she moved on to her next client. It was a great way to run from the pain of the past. She enjoyed what she did. She had always been in the music business but never "on the road". This was a new way of life for her, and so far it was just what she needed. She met some fantastic people and became quite close with many of them. But once again she found herself running. She was back at the lake wondering where her next client was going to come from when her phone buzzed in her hand.Olivia was just lounging in bed getting some work done when someone was rapping on the door. It was late and she wasn't in the mood for company. She had gotten used to being alone at night so the thought crossed her mind to just ignore the knocking. But it could be important. She opened the door to find Harris standing there. "Hey, I saw your light on, thought I'd check on you. You ok?" Olivia opened the door for him to come in. "I'm trying to get some work done. What are you doing up roaming the grounds? It's kinda creepy. How often do you do this?" She said with a wink.He laughed. When he was with Olivia he felt at ease. His life had been so chaotic and was spinning out of control before she arrived. Thank God his manager found her and hired her to get him to straighten up. Who knows what would have happened next had she not agreed to take him on as her next client. "Mind if I come in? I can't sleep and just need some company." Olivia rolled her eyes before turning to head back to the bedroom. "Want to finish the movie with me?" she asked. Harris and her had become very comfortable with each other over the past few weeks. He was a mess when she arrived. But after getting him back on the straight and narrow he'd done remarkable. The record company didn't want the publicity of sending Harris to rehab. They contacted Olivia instead. This was a bit out of her realm. She was seasoned at building careers and images, not putting someone's back together. The story was that she was brought on as the interior designer in charge of Harris' new Malibu estate. No one questioned since Olivia had seen some success in the past doing just that. She had been staying in the guest house since she arrived. She implemented some strict rules right away and was surprised by Harris' willingness to move forward in his life and get it back on track. They started each day together with a run. After which they had breakfast and went over the schedule for the day. With the band on hiatus, the schedule wasn't as crazy as Harris was used to, which led to a lot of downtime. He wasn't good with downtime. That's what led to his self-destructive behavior just months ago. Olivia was making sure he was staying busy enough to stay out of trouble but also being selective with how he spent his time. And working on the house turned out to be a big part of it."Sure, what are you watching?" Harris asked
