She frowned, too. “Why is that? I’ll make certain they set up a direct line of communication with a production assistant before I—”
“We communicate well enough. You understand my concerns here. I don’t see the need to develop another association when this one is working just fine.”
“But—”
“I won’t be relocating to town, Erin.”
“It would be so much easier for you, trust me. You’ll see that—”
“Why don’t we cut to the chase here, as you Yanks say.”
It was her turn to look wary now. “Okay.”

It was clear on her face she still thought to bargain with him and get her way on certain matters. Little did she know who she was dealing with. “Deal?”
To her credit, she held his gaze directly as she took his hand in a surprisingly firm shake. “Deal.”
