I booked Nina White for a 3-hour appointment during, business trip in Los Angeles. We met for drinks at the hotel bar, something light before a round of golf the next morning with some colleagues. Nina showed up turning every head in the room, elegant but sultry, with this quietly commanding presence that made the rest of the bar fade into the background. Conversation was smooth, flirty, and full of those little moments that make you forget you’re technically on a “date” and not just enjoying the company of a woman who somehow gets you right away. By the time we headed upstairs, I’d nearly forgotten I was in town for work.
