And we fell in
love with our hero, Dane Harrington, and his beautiful heroine, Cammie
Chandler. Actually, I fell in love with Dane when he first popped in to visit
us in </span><a href="https://jenniferskully.com/UnforgettableinLove.html" style="text-indent: 0in;"><b><i><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;">Unforgettable
in Love</span></i></b></a><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif; text-indent: 0in;">.
You might remember that Dane bought Gideon’s painting. And if you can’t
remember the painting, catch up with </span><a href="https://jenniferskully.com/captivatinginlove.html" style="text-indent: 0in;"><b><i><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;">Captivating in Love</span></i></b></a><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif; text-indent: 0in;">!</span><div><span style="font-family: Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span><p></p>
<p class="CSP-ChapterBodyText" style="text-indent: 0in;"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif; text-indent: 0in;">So here’s a bit more about Dane and
Cammie’s endless love story!</span></p><p class="CSP-ChapterBodyText" style="text-indent: 0in;"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif; text-indent: 0in;"><br /></span></p>
<p class="CSP-ChapterBodyText" style="text-indent: 0in;"><i><span style="background: white; color: #242424; font-family: "Times New Roman",serif;">A sexy billionaire and the one woman he can’t
have…</span></i></p><p class="CSP-ChapterBodyText" style="text-indent: 0in;"><i><span style="background: white; color: #242424; font-family: "Times New Roman",serif;"><br /></span></i></p>
<p style="margin: 0in;"><span style="background: white; color: #242424; font-family: "Times New Roman",serif;">Dane Harrington is the epitome of power,
wealth, and success. The self-made billionaire is used to getting what he
wants, when he wants it. And he’s well aware he wouldn’t be able to get it all
done without his brilliant personal assistant, Cammie Chandler.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p style="margin: 0in;"><span style="background: white; color: #242424; font-family: "Times New Roman",serif;"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p style="margin: 0in;"><span style="background: white; color: #242424; font-family: "Times New Roman",serif;">Cammie is smart, beautiful, and fiercely
independent. And before she ever thought she’d work for Dane, the two of them
shared a steamy night full of sensual touches and passionate kisses. But once
he offered her the fantastic position as his personal assistant, they both
agreed the only possible way to make it work was if they remained perfectly
professional. But no matter how hard they’ve both tried, neither of them has
been able to completely forget their one incredible, sexy night together.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p style="margin: 0in;"><span style="background: white; color: #242424; font-family: "Times New Roman",serif;"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p style="margin: 0in;"><span style="background: white; color: #242424; font-family: "Times New Roman",serif;">When Dane finally admits the only woman he’s
ever truly wanted is Cammie, their burning desire becomes too powerful to
resist. Can they throw out the rule book that has kept them safe for so long?
Or will a love that seems endless be forever doomed?</span></p><p style="margin: 0in;"><span style="background: white; color: #242424; font-family: "Times New Roman",serif;"><br /></span></p>

<p align="center" class="MsoNormal" style="layout-grid-mode: char; mso-layout-grid-align: none; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;">© 2023 Bella Andre & Jennifer Skully<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="layout-grid-mode: char; mso-layout-grid-align: none; text-indent: 0.5in;"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="layout-grid-mode: char; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto; mso-margin-top-alt: auto; text-autospace: none; text-indent: 0.5in;"><span style="color: black; font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;">“Now, that’s a lot of pregnant ladies.” Eyes on the women on the
sidelines, Dane Harrington’s sister Ava pulled her glossy, dark red hair into
an elastic band.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="layout-grid-mode: char; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto; mso-margin-top-alt: auto; text-autospace: none; text-indent: 0.5in;"><span style="color: black; font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;">Dane couldn’t tell if that was envy in her eyes. Or terror.
Knowing his sister, who was thirty-six and a couple of years younger than him,
it had to be terror. She didn’t flinch in boardrooms, and a ferocious game of
soccer never alarmed her. But babies struck fear into the hearts of all the
Harrington siblings—his two sisters and two brothers.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="layout-grid-mode: char; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto; mso-margin-top-alt: auto; text-autospace: none; text-indent: 0.5in;"><span style="color: black; font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;">Golden Gate Park on a Sunday afternoon provided the backdrop for
one such ferocious soccer game. The Mavericks set up the collapsible goal nets
his sister Gabby had brought, and his brothers, Troy and Clay, finished the
chalk lines. Since the lawn wasn’t an official soccer field, they shared it
with kids flying kites, dog owners throwing Frisbees, families enjoying a
picnic, and sunbathers catching rays on the first sunny Sunday anyone had seen
in six weeks.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="layout-grid-mode: char; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto; mso-margin-top-alt: auto; text-autospace: none; text-indent: 0.5in;"><span style="color: black; font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;">January had been wet in the San Francisco Bay Area, with storms
hitting hard along the entire West Coast. The rain, thankfully, had let up a
week ago, and now, at the tail end of January, the turf had dried out, making
an impromptu game possible without it turning into a mud bath. Not that Dane
was averse to getting dirty for something important.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="layout-grid-mode: char; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto; mso-margin-top-alt: auto; text-autospace: none; text-indent: 0.5in;"><span style="color: black; font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;">And today was important to him.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="layout-grid-mode: char; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto; mso-margin-top-alt: auto; text-autospace: none; text-indent: 0.5in;"><span style="color: black; font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;">The Maverick ladies sat in deck chairs on the grassy sidelines,
ready to cheer on their husbands and significant others. And yeah, that was a
lot of pregnant women. Paige Collins was the furthest along, her due date
somewhere around the end of March.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="layout-grid-mode: char; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto; mso-margin-top-alt: auto; text-autospace: none; text-indent: 0.5in;"><span style="color: black; font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;">Fernsby, Dane’s butler, who insisted on going everywhere with
Dane, rolled his ubiquitous tea trolley through the gathering, offering his
baked treats and cups of tea.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="layout-grid-mode: char; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto; mso-margin-top-alt: auto; text-autospace: none; text-indent: 0.5in;"><span style="color: black; font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;">Dane caught Cammie’s eye, and she gave him a thumbs-up. While her
hair shimmered red-gold in the sunshine, Cammie’s green eyes seemed to sparkle,
something he swore he could see even from this distance. Among the women on the
sidelines, she formed the Harrington cheering section—along with T. Rex, the
long-haired mini dachshund they shared, who’d run to her the moment Dane
unleashed him.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="layout-grid-mode: char; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto; mso-margin-top-alt: auto; text-autospace: none; text-indent: 0.5in;"><span style="color: black; font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;">His personal assistant for the last twelve years, Cammie Chandler
was one of the most caring, loyal people he knew. He felt exceptionally
grateful she’d taken time away from her uncle’s bedside in the San Juan
Bautista care home to make the two-hour drive north to Golden Gate Park. Her
uncle suffered with late-stage Alzheimer’s, and Cammie had been on family leave
for the past five months to be with him.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="layout-grid-mode: char; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto; mso-margin-top-alt: auto; text-autospace: none; text-indent: 0.5in;"><span style="color: black; font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;">But Dane needed her input on the Mavericks before he moved forward
with his plans. Cammie’s impressions were always spot-on. He thanked his lucky
stars for the day Clyde Westerbourne sent her to him for that job interview
twelve years ago. His work life had been a shambles, with one assistant after
another only making his problems worse. All of twenty-two at the time, Cammie
had saved his work life from catastrophe.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="layout-grid-mode: char; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto; mso-margin-top-alt: auto; text-autospace: none; text-indent: 0.5in;"><span style="color: black; font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;">Ava kicked his shin. Thinking about Cammie, he’d missed Will
Franconi kicking the ball and starting the game. Though soccer normally
required at least seven players, there were only five Harringtons. Playing in
teams of five, the Mavericks probably thought they had the advantage since they
could bring in Cal Danniger or Gideon Jones to spell the others—not that Dane
had ever seen an exhausted Maverick. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="layout-grid-mode: char; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto; mso-margin-top-alt: auto; text-autospace: none; text-indent: 0.5in;"><span style="color: black; font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;">But they didn’t know Gabby and Ava were the Harringtons’ secret
weapons.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="layout-grid-mode: char; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto; mso-margin-top-alt: auto; text-autospace: none; text-indent: 0.5in;"><span style="color: black; font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;">Gabby was right there, taking control of the ball, dribbling it
down the field, even though she could have kicked it to one of her brothers.
But that was Gabby, totally focused on the goal. Youngest of them all at only
thirty, she was blond like their mother, while all the males of the family were
dark-haired. Ava, with her red locks, was a throwback to their grandfather.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="layout-grid-mode: char; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto; mso-margin-top-alt: auto; text-autospace: none; text-indent: 0.5in;"><span style="color: black; font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;">Both his sisters were holy terrors on the soccer field. And super
competitive. Even he found their ruthlessness shocking. They could steal the
ball out from under you in a split second. Of all the Harringtons, they were
the fastest and wiliest. Soccer wasn’t about brute strength. It was about
agility and strategy. And they were both excellent tacticians.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="layout-grid-mode: char; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto; mso-margin-top-alt: auto; text-autospace: none; text-indent: 0.5in;"><span style="color: black; font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;">Gabby swiftly passed the ball to Ava, just as Matt Tremont made
his move, going in for the steal. But he pulled up short, mystified to find the
ball no longer there.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="layout-grid-mode: char; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto; mso-margin-top-alt: auto; text-autospace: none; text-indent: 0.5in;"><span style="color: black; font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;">Dane and his siblings had played soccer with Gabby since she’d
joined her middle school soccer team in the Bay Area, then had gone on to play
all through high school. The family had used the game as a way to deal with
their parents’ deaths in an avalanche while skiing in the French Alps. The
blows had continued when they’d learned their parents had squandered their
fortune, racking up huge debts. Soccer practice helped them blow off steam and
kept the family from imploding. Dane had spent his entire adult life keeping
his brothers and sisters together. They were all his best friends, the ones he
turned to, counted on, be it critical middle-of-the-night calls or just goofing
around.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="layout-grid-mode: char; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto; mso-margin-top-alt: auto; text-autospace: none; text-indent: 0.5in;"><span style="color: black; font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;">But now they’d all found their own paths and were doing damn well.
Even if each of them had yet to find a partner—or, hell, even a serious
relationship. And at thirty-eight years old, his life had become about
business, his resorts, and expansion.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="layout-grid-mode: char; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto; mso-margin-top-alt: auto; text-autospace: none; text-indent: 0.5in;"><span style="color: black; font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;">His team—his family—moved the soccer ball rapidly down the field
toward the Mavericks’ goal net. While Clay played goalie, Troy and Ava kicked
the ball back and forth, but soon Gabby would move in for the kill. Cal and
Gideon yelled instructions from the sidelines while Matt, along with Evan
Collins, tried vainly to steal the ball. They hadn’t a clue it was no use.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="layout-grid-mode: char; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto; mso-margin-top-alt: auto; text-autospace: none; text-indent: 0.5in;"><span style="color: black; font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;">Gabby went for the goal. Sebastian Montgomery dove for the ball
before it made it into the net, his fingers falling an inch short.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="layout-grid-mode: char; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto; mso-margin-top-alt: auto; text-autospace: none; text-indent: 0.5in;"><span style="color: black; font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;">Of course one of his sisters scored first. Dane high-fived his
teammates, while the Mavericks stomped the grass like angry stallions.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="layout-grid-mode: char; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto; mso-margin-top-alt: auto; text-autospace: none; text-indent: 0.5in;"><span style="color: black; font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;">They were an equally competitive bunch, one of the many reasons
they interested him. Since that New Year’s Eve gala at Dane’s Napa resort, the
Mavericks and Harringtons had been feeling each other out over one-on-one
lunches, drinks, or dinners. All the proceeds from the fundraiser had gone to
benefit Lean on Us, Gideon’s foundation for veterans and foster kids. Dane had
worked with Cal Danniger and Lyssa Spencer extensively on the holiday gala,
getting to know them well. As he learned more about the Mavericks, he
discovered a synergy between them he couldn’t quite explain. And he envied it.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="layout-grid-mode: char; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto; mso-margin-top-alt: auto; text-autospace: none; text-indent: 0.5in;"><span style="color: black; font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;">A couple of days ago, Will Franconi had called him, saying they
should all talk.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="layout-grid-mode: char; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto; mso-margin-top-alt: auto; text-autospace: none; text-indent: 0.5in;"><span style="color: black; font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;">Dane had suggested the soccer game.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="layout-grid-mode: char; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto; mso-margin-top-alt: auto; text-autospace: none; text-indent: 0.5in;"><span style="color: black; font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;">“Sounds perfect,” Will said. “Afterward, we’ll grab a pint in the
city and talk.” After a beat, he added, “We feel there’s great potential in
working some business ventures with all of you.”<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="layout-grid-mode: char; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto; mso-margin-top-alt: auto; text-autospace: none; text-indent: 0.5in;"><span style="color: black; font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;">Dane thought the same thing. His family agreed. The Mavericks
would complement everything his sisters and brothers brought to the table.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="layout-grid-mode: char; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto; mso-margin-top-alt: auto; text-autospace: none; text-indent: 0.5in;"><span style="color: black; font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;">They got in position for the Mavericks’ turn at the ball. Now
they’d had a taste of the Harringtons, the Mavericks would be on guard and not
as easy to beat. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="layout-grid-mode: char; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto; mso-margin-top-alt: auto; text-autospace: none; text-indent: 0.5in;"><span style="color: black; font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;">Dane went for the steal right under Evan’s nose. But the man saw
him coming, and the ball whirled out of his reach to Matt, who dribbled it down
the field. Yeah, the Mavericks were now playing tough.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="layout-grid-mode: char; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto; mso-margin-top-alt: auto; text-autospace: none; text-indent: 0.5in;"><span style="color: black; font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;">He’d first met the Mavericks when he anonymously purchased a
Miguel Fernando Correa painting from Gideon. The famous artist’s work had come
into Gideon’s hands through an army comrade. After remaining unknown for
generations, the painting was now worth millions. Instead of exploiting the
windfall, Gideon had used the proceeds to start his nonprofit foundation.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="layout-grid-mode: char; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto; mso-margin-top-alt: auto; text-autospace: none; text-indent: 0.5in;"><span style="color: black; font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;">Of course, Dane had heard of the Mavericks long before that. Who
hadn’t? When Lyssa and Cal came to London with the intention of hitting him up
for a donation, he’d revealed the Correa painting upstairs in his study. And
told them of his desire to help the foundation in any way he could. He’d
brought in more donations and offered his resort for the gala fundraiser Lyssa
planned.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="layout-grid-mode: char; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto; mso-margin-top-alt: auto; text-autospace: none; text-indent: 0.5in;"><span style="color: black; font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;">But it was Cammie who’d first seen the magic in the painting,
encouraging him to bid on it. He’d upped the bid until there was no doubt the
amazing work of art would be his. After he’d enjoyed the painting in his London
townhome for a few months, it was now making the rounds of galleries and
museums worldwide. Cammie had set up the tour from her uncle’s bedside.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

She watched
the game as avidly as the Maverick ladies, all of them shouting encouragement
as their men kicked the ball between them, moving it swiftly down the field,
neither Gabby nor Ava able to check their momentum.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="layout-grid-mode: char; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto; mso-margin-top-alt: auto; text-autospace: none; text-indent: 0.5in;"><span style="color: black; font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;">If Cammie hadn’t pointed out the Correa painting to him, Dane
would never have connected with the Mavericks.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="layout-grid-mode: char; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto; mso-margin-top-alt: auto; text-autospace: none; text-indent: 0.5in;"><span style="color: black; font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;">She amazed him with her dedication. She’d taken care of her uncle
for years after he was diagnosed with early-onset Alzheimer’s. Seven years ago,
the disease progressed to the point that she’d had to put him in a memory care
facility. He’d lived far longer than most Alzheimer’s patients. A few months
ago, however, it became clear he was close to the end of his journey. Dane had
insisted Cammie take family leave when he found her sleeping at her desk. The
only person who could calm her uncle, she’d been traveling back and forth to
the care home several times a week. But caring for him and managing her job at
the same time was affecting her health.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="layout-grid-mode: char; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto; mso-margin-top-alt: auto; text-autospace: none; text-indent: 0.5in;"><span style="color: black; font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;">After the last months without Cammie, Dane’s life was again in a
shambles. Which was why he was so glad to have her here today, though he knew
how hard it was for her to leave her uncle. She was more than Dane’s personal
assistant. She was as important to him as his family. She kept him on track.
She was right on about ventures he should go for and schemes he should avoid,
seconding his gut feelings. She was smart. She was diligent. And so efficient
there’d never been a single hiccup in his work life. Until she left. Even with
the temps who’d taken her place, he was barely hanging on. Not that he’d tell
her. Her place was by her uncle’s side right now.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="layout-grid-mode: char; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto; mso-margin-top-alt: auto; text-autospace: none; text-indent: 0.5in;"><span style="color: black; font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;">Except today, when Dane needed her.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="layout-grid-mode: char; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto; mso-margin-top-alt: auto; text-autospace: none; text-indent: 0.5in;"><span style="color: black; font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;">The ball thwacked him in the head. He hadn’t even realized he’d
stopped running. Or that Gabby had gone for another steal. But Matt stole it
back. On her feet, his wife, Ari, punched her fist in the air, screaming at
Matt to go all the way.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="layout-grid-mode: char; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto; mso-margin-top-alt: auto; text-autospace: none; text-indent: 0.5in;"><span style="color: black; font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;">The sidelines erupted with cheers when the Mavericks kicked the
ball into the corner of the net despite Clay’s dive.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="layout-grid-mode: char; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto; mso-margin-top-alt: auto; text-autospace: none; text-indent: 0.5in;"><span style="color: black; font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;">Almost lost among the women on the sidelines, Cammie jumped up and
down on the grass, waving her hands, throwing out catcalls. Because she was all
for the Harringtons. Always had been. Always would be.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="layout-grid-mode: char; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto; mso-margin-top-alt: auto; text-autospace: none; text-indent: 0.5in;"><span style="color: black; font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;">That was his girl Friday.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p align="center" class="MsoNormal" style="layout-grid-mode: char; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto; mso-margin-top-alt: auto; text-align: center; text-autospace: none; text-indent: 0.5in;"><span style="color: black; font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;">***<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="layout-grid-mode: char; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto; mso-margin-top-alt: auto; text-autospace: none; text-indent: 0.5in;"><span style="color: black; font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;">The tied game roused all the passions on the sidelines, everyone
shouting hurrahs for the Mavericks, who’d just put in Gideon and Cal to replace
Evan and Daniel. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="layout-grid-mode: char; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto; mso-margin-top-alt: auto; text-autospace: none; text-indent: 0.5in;"><span style="color: black; font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;">Lyssa Spencer, her dark curls shining in the sunlight, turned to
Cammie. “Dane’s sisters are crazy good.” Even her eyes, a chocolate brown like
her brother Daniel’s, seemed to smile.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="layout-grid-mode: char; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto; mso-margin-top-alt: auto; text-autospace: none; text-indent: 0.5in;"><span style="color: black; font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;">Having taken her seat again, Cammie ran her fingers through Rex’s
fur as he climbed once more into her lap. Ava and Gabby were the Harringtons’
surprise advantage. “They’re pretty good.”<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="layout-grid-mode: char; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto; mso-margin-top-alt: auto; text-autospace: none; text-indent: 0.5in;"><span style="color: black; font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;">Letting out a big laugh, Lyssa gushed, “They’re out of this world.
They could go pro. I mean, my brothers are no slouches.” She put a hand on her
belly. “And look at Cal out there. He’s crushing it.” The pure love on Lyssa’s
face made Cammie’s heart stutter. Cal Danniger, the Mavericks’ business
manager, though quite a few years older than Lyssa’s twenty-six, was still
extremely attractive and fit, with a hint of silver in his dark hair.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="layout-grid-mode: char; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto; mso-margin-top-alt: auto; text-autospace: none; text-indent: 0.5in;"><span style="color: black; font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;">At more than three months pregnant, Lyssa wore that special
motherhood glow. Dane had mentioned that Cal and Lyssa had postponed their
wedding until after the baby came in July.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="layout-grid-mode: char; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto; mso-margin-top-alt: auto; text-autospace: none; text-indent: 0.5in;"><span style="color: black; font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;">Kelsey Collins, Evan’s younger sister, nudged Lyssa’s arm. “And
let me tell you, those Harrington men are no slouches either.” She winked,
adding a swoony note to her tone. “Talk about tall, dark, and handsome.”<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="layout-grid-mode: char; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto; mso-margin-top-alt: auto; text-autospace: none; text-indent: 0.5in;"><span style="color: black; font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;">The Harrington brothers were definitely a handsome lot—all over
six feet, with thick, dark hair and blue eyes that seemed to see everything
inside you. At least, Dane’s gaze did. Once, long ago, Troy had asked her out.
Naturally, she’d turned him down. Working for Dane, it would have been awkward,
even if she’d been interested. She was fairly certain Dane had read Troy the
riot act for trying to poach one of his employees. He’d even apologized for
Troy’s harassment, though Cammie had scoffed at his use of that word. Troy had
asked, she’d said no, they’d both been fine, end of story. Clay, of course, had
never even thought about dating her. They might be drop-dead gorgeous like
their older brother, but no way did she need that kind of complication.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="layout-grid-mode: char; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto; mso-margin-top-alt: auto; text-autospace: none; text-indent: 0.5in;"><span style="color: black; font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;">But she certainly wasn’t blind. They were <i>all</i> drop-dead
gorgeous. Especially Dane. Not that she actually <i>looked</i>.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="layout-grid-mode: char; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto; mso-margin-top-alt: auto; text-autospace: none; text-indent: 0.5in;"><span style="color: black; font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;">“I really thought you would date him, Lyssa.” Kelsey waggled her
eyebrows. “He’s such a hottie, with all that thick hair a woman would just die
to run her fingers through.” She kneaded the air with her fingers like a cat.
“Especially after that trip you made to his London townhouse.”<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="layout-grid-mode: char; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto; mso-margin-top-alt: auto; text-autospace: none; text-indent: 0.5in;"><span style="color: black; font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;">Lyssa’s gaze rested on Cal, adoration in her eyes as she said,
“Dane’s London house is stunning, filled with furniture and artwork that should
be in a museum.” She ignored Kelsey’s insinuations about Dane and pointed to
Fernsby. “And the house came with its very own British butler.”<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="layout-grid-mode: char; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto; mso-margin-top-alt: auto; text-autospace: none; text-indent: 0.5in;"><span style="color: black; font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;">Fernsby, now busily passing out his baked treats, had been with
Dane for years, long before Dane bought the townhouse in the fashionable London
borough of Chelsea. Cammie always suspected that baking was how Fernsby showed
his love, though you certainly couldn’t tell from his manner. With the ageless
face of a person who neither smiled nor frowned, he could be anywhere from
forty to sixty. Wearing his ever-present stern expression, and with his tall
frame and cultured voice, he was the epitome of the loyal manservant, always at
Dane’s side no matter where, be it the London house, the manor in the English
countryside, the Pebble Beach estate, the San Francisco flat, or even the small
Caribbean island Dane owned.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="layout-grid-mode: char; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto; mso-margin-top-alt: auto; text-autospace: none; text-indent: 0.5in;"><span style="color: black; font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;">But Kelsey didn’t let the subject go. “Come on, Lyssa, don’t tell
me you didn’t think about a little—” She fluffed her ponytail of tawny
blond-streaked hair and grinned instead of saying exactly what. “—for just a
moment during that first meeting with Dane in his fabulous London home.”<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="layout-grid-mode: char; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto; mso-margin-top-alt: auto; text-autospace: none; text-indent: 0.5in;"><span style="color: black; font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;">Hands on her baby bump, Lyssa’s gaze fastened on Cal as he
masterfully controlled the ball. “You know Cal was always the man for me.” Her
eyes reflected the dreamy note in her voice. And she nudged Kelsey. “You’re the
one who should date Dane. He’s perfect for you.”<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="layout-grid-mode: char; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto; mso-margin-top-alt: auto; text-autospace: none; text-indent: 0.5in;"><span style="color: black; font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;">Kelsey visibly shuddered. “No way. He’s too rich, powerful, and
handsome. I want someone I don’t have to compete with.”<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="layout-grid-mode: char; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto; mso-margin-top-alt: auto; text-autospace: none; text-indent: 0.5in;"><span style="color: black; font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;">Cammie liked the outspoken Kelsey. From Dane, Cammie had learned
that Kelsey and her twin brother, Tony—who couldn’t make it today—had appeared
in their older brother’s life only a year ago. Evan had known nothing about the
twins, his mother having left when he was only nine years old. But he’d
apparently welcomed them all with open arms, his birth mother included. Cammie
was sure there had to be a major story there.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="layout-grid-mode: char; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto; mso-margin-top-alt: auto; text-autospace: none; text-indent: 0.5in;"><span style="color: black; font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;">On the field, Dane stole the ball from Cal, and the Maverick
ladies erupted once more. Of course, Cammie jumped to her feet cheering. Rex,
accidentally dumped on the ground, barked his joy, too, then abruptly ran off
to beg Fernsby for a treat.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="layout-grid-mode: char; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto; mso-margin-top-alt: auto; text-autospace: none; text-indent: 0.5in;"><span style="color: black; font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;">Kelsey had said she didn’t want someone too rich, powerful, or
handsome. But she’d forgotten one adjective—perfect. The things Kelsey said
about Dane didn’t bother Cammie. She wasn’t proprietary about her boss. She
certainly wasn’t jealous. She was just a little uncomfortable with Kelsey
talking about Dane as if he were a prize piece of beef. Even if he was. Cammie
had done her best not to notice that over the years she’d worked for him. She’d
had her uncle to think of, who’d relied on her so long she couldn’t remember a
time when he hadn’t. And she’d always been there for him.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="layout-grid-mode: char; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto; mso-margin-top-alt: auto; text-autospace: none; text-indent: 0.5in;"><span style="color: black; font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;">But even if she had absolutely no designs on Dane—their working
relationship was too important—she liked the way he’d introduced her today, not
<i>just</i> as his assistant, but adding, “I can’t do anything without her.”<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="layout-grid-mode: char; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto; mso-margin-top-alt: auto; text-autospace: none; text-indent: 0.5in;"><span style="color: black; font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;">With all the jeering from the Maverick ladies, Cammie cheered the
Harringtons. Staid Fernsby, incapable of even cracking a smile, certainly
couldn’t do it.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="layout-grid-mode: char; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto; mso-margin-top-alt: auto; text-autospace: none; text-indent: 0.5in;"><span style="color: black; font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;">Cammie punched the air. “You go, Dane. Crush those Mavericks.”<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="layout-grid-mode: char; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto; mso-margin-top-alt: auto; text-autospace: none; text-indent: 0.5in;"><span style="color: black; font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;">Suddenly, she was the target of all the Maverick females, battle
light in their eyes, ready to squash the opposition.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="layout-grid-mode: char; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto; mso-margin-top-alt: auto; text-autospace: none; text-indent: 0.5in;"><span style="color: black; font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;">Until Kelsey laughed loudly. Then they all doubled over, laughing
in near hysteria.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="layout-grid-mode: char; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto; mso-margin-top-alt: auto; text-autospace: none; text-indent: 0.5in;"><span style="color: black; font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;">Lyssa held her baby bump. Ari Tremont and Rosie hugged each other,
both women as far along in their pregnancies as Lyssa. Paige Collins, Evan’s
wife, had to sit. There wasn’t a more polite way to say it: She was huge,
beautifully pregnant with twins, and due in a couple of months. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="layout-grid-mode: char; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto; mso-margin-top-alt: auto; text-autospace: none; text-indent: 0.5in;"><span style="color: black; font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;">Wistfulness fell over Cammie, even as she wiped tears of laughter
from her eyes. They were all so happy. And their children would be so close in
age. The two boys, Matt’s son, Noah, and Rosie’s son, Jorge, both almost seven,
were dying to be big brothers. One huge happy family, they were wonderful to
watch.</span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="layout-grid-mode: char; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto; mso-margin-top-alt: auto; text-autospace: none; text-indent: 0.5in;"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif; text-indent: 0.5in;">And the burst of laughter they’d all shared made Cammie long to be
one of them.</span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="layout-grid-mode: char; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto; mso-margin-top-alt: auto; text-autospace: none; text-indent: 0.5in;"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif; text-indent: 0.5in;"><br /></span></p>

Thomas Hunt from </span><a href="https://jenniferskully.com/WishinginRome.html"><b><i><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif;">Wishing in Rome</span></i></b></a><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;">? His
wife Carol died at the beginning of the book, which set off the events for Dana
Shaw and Marshall Garrison, my couple in </span><a href="https://jenniferskully.com/WishinginRome.html"><b><i><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif;">Wishing in Rome</span></i></b></a><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;">. But
what about Thomas? He lost the love of his life. I just couldn’t let that
alone, and I had to give Thomas a second chance at love! So here’s his story in

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color: #333333; font-family: "Times New Roman",serif;">English
teacher Nita Jeffries is stuck. She can’t move on from a brief fling with a
grieving widower and decides to forget him by making the trip of a lifetime to
Spain. Who can be sad in Barcelona, between the amazing markets, the whimsical
Gaudi architecture, and the fabulous beaches? When she finds the perfect
rental, she packs her bags, intent on savoring every moment of her vacation…
and finally getting over the beautiful man who could never fall in love with
her.</span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color: #333333; font-family: "Times New Roman",serif;"><br /></span></p>

<span style="background: white;">more than</span> a year ago, Thomas Hunt is
still grieving his wife. For 25 years, she was the only one for him, and yet,
only months after her death, he had a brief encounter with another woman.
Suffocating in guilt, he ended it badly—but he can’t forget the woman who made
him feel such passion.</span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color: #333333; font-family: "Times New Roman",serif;"><br /></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color: #333333; font-family: "Times New Roman",serif;">Then,
on a business trip in Barcelona, he sees Nita Jeffries again. And this time, he
can’t walk away. They embark on a whirlwind exploration of southern Spain,
while they spend the nights exploring each other.</span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color: #333333; font-family: "Times New Roman",serif;"><br /></span></p>

for the vacation of a lifetime,<span style="background: white;"> traveling first
class from Paris to Venice, on the surface, everything seems perfect. Until
Marnie sees a strange text on her husband’s phone and all the fears she’s
pushed aside about their marriage make her suspect he’s having an affair. So
when she meets a famous actor—and realizes he’s flirting with her!—she can’t
help but be flattered by the attention.</span></span></span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color: black;"><span style="font-family: arial;"><span style="background: white;"><br /></span></span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: arial;">But Guy has his own suspicions about Marnie’s long work
hours and her need to rush to the phone every time work calls. And now she
seems to be enjoying the attentions of this actor far too much. With jealousy
suddenly flaring between them, their passions are unexpectedly rekindled thirty
years after their “I do’s.”</span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: arial;"><br /></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: arial;">As they tour the magnificent Louvre and dine on gourmet

is now available! Can I just say that I love Lyssa and Cal’s story. One of my
favorite romance tropes is the May-December romance. And right from the
beginning I’ve had a soft spot for Cal, a Maverick, but not a Maverick. We knew
he needed the perfect woman. Then Lyssa saw him in a new light at Matt and
Ari’s wedding. Their story was inevitable! And unforgettable!</span></p><p class="CSP-ChapterBodyText" style="text-indent: 0in;"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;"><br /></span></p><p class="CSP-ChapterBodyText" style="text-indent: 0in;"><a name="_Hlk76498675">Lyssa Spencer is the apple of the Mavericks’ eyes, the
little sister they adore and vowed always to protect. But Lyssa isn’t a little
girl anymore. More than anything, she wishes they could see she’s a grown woman
and perfectly able to take care of herself. Her new boss, Cal Danniger, certainly
appreciates and respects her abilities. And she appreciates Cal...in every way possible.
Yet she can’t imagine he’d ever consider dating her, not when her brothers
would rip him limb from limb if he so much as looked at her the wrong way. But
boy, does she ever want him to look at her exactly that wrong way.</a></p><p class="CSP-ChapterBodyText" style="text-indent: 0in;"><a name="_Hlk76498675"><br /></a></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="background: white;"><a name="_Hlk76498675">The Mavericks are Cal Danniger’s best friends, as well as
his business partners. So when they ask him to watch over Lyssa by giving her a
job in the San Francisco Bay Area, of course he agrees. While she impresses him
with how smart, dependable, hard-working, and dedicated she is, he’s not at all
prepared for the powerful, sizzling attraction that takes everything in him to
fight. He needs to keep his hands off her no matter what, even as he dreams of
all her sweet spots he desperately wants to touch.</a></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="background: white;"><a name="_Hlk76498675"><br /></a></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="background: white;">After one passionate and unforgettable night in London that
neither can resist, Cal vows never to let it happen again…if only he could stop
thinking about Lyssa, or wanting so much more.</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="background: white;"><br /></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="background: white;">Between a secret Lyssa is keeping from him and the Maverick

Spencer had flown in sumptuous private jets before. But this was by far the
nicest plane she’d ever been in. The carpet was plush, the seating was
upholstered in the softest leather, and the onboard bathroom was so large and
luxuriously appointed that she could have quite happily lived in it.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;">“Did
one of my brothers get a new plane?” she asked Cal Danniger as she settled into
a leather armchair, making herself comfortable for the long flight to London.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;">Across
the cabin table, Cal shook his head. “No.”<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;">“I
didn’t realize any companies rented private jets this nice.”<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;">“As
far as I know,” he said in that deep voice that made all of her nerve endings
come alive despite knowing he was <i>off-limits</i>, “none do.” <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;">It
finally dawned on her. “<i>You</i> own this jet?”<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;">He
nodded.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;">She
felt all kinds of embarrassed. As if she’d implied that Cal was nothing more
than an administrative lackey for her brothers, rather than an incredibly
successful businessman in his own right. Especially when she knew exactly how
it felt to be undervalued in the shadow of her amazingly successful family. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;">Her
whole life, she’d been seen as nothing more than an extension of the Mavericks.
Most people didn’t realize that, apart from Daniel, the Mavericks were actually
her foster brothers. But blood ties didn’t matter—they had grown up as family,
which meant that she had five big brothers. Six, if you counted Gideon, who,
upon entering the fray, had immediately treated her like a little sister he
needed to protect.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;">“I
didn’t mean—”<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;">She
would have continued her apology, but the flight attendant stepped into the
cabin. “Would you like coffee, Mr. Danniger?” The woman had zeroed in the
entirety of her attention on Cal, and her gaze on him was like a caress.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;">And
why not? Cal was an extremely attractive man. In his mid-forties, with a few
strands of gray streaking his chestnut hair, he was tall and fit, his eyes a
penetrating silvery shade that made Lyssa feel like he could see all of her
secret hopes and dreams and longings. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;">This
summer at Ari and Matt’s wedding, Lyssa had drunk just enough wine to let her
guard down with her girlfriends and voiced her appreciation of Cal’s taut
muscles and toned body. Unfortunately, Daniel had overheard and gone
Neanderthal on her. Her brother’s words still rankled: <i>He’s not for you.</i><o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;">It
was precisely how the Mavericks had always taken care of her—by trying to make
all of her big decisions for her while also dictating everything she could and
couldn’t do. She knew they loved her to pieces and would do anything for her.
They had already done <i>so</i> much. They’d looked out for her growing up in
Chicago and supported her in her choice of majors at college and then in her
career as an accountant. And she loved them without reservation. Even if they
too often treated her like she was still fourteen years old, rather than a
twenty-six-year-old woman who was perfectly capable of taking care of herself
and making her own decisions, big and small.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;">Cal
smiled at the flight attendant. “I’d love some coffee. Thank you, Delilah.”<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;">“I’d
love a cup, as well,” Lyssa said, even as she wondered if he had any idea how
sexy his smile was. Delilah had certainly noticed.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;">“It
will be my <i>pleasure</i>,” the flight attendant said to Cal with absolutely
no subtlety—and not even the slightest glance toward Lyssa—before she headed
back to the galley, her hips swaying.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;">To
Cal’s credit, his eyes didn’t follow the woman’s movements, nor did he seem to
be counting down the minutes until he could sneak away with her to make use of
the onboard bedroom. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;">His
behavior was consistent with what Lyssa knew of him. While he definitely didn’t
lack for female company—some might even use the word <i>playboy </i>to describe
him—at his core, he was an upstanding guy who would never take advantage of his
wealth or position of power.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;">Cal
had been her boss for six weeks. In September, she’d quit her job in Chicago,
moved to San Francisco, and taken on the accounting activities for Gideon
Jones’s Lean on Us Foundation.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;">For
years, Gideon had owned a painting given to him by Karmen Sanchez, a fellow
comrade-in-arms who had been killed overseas. Little had Gideon known that the
painting was worth sixty million dollars until his fiancée, Rosie, who had
knowledge of the art world, had done some research and realized he was in
possession of a rare masterpiece by famed eighteenth-century artist </span><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif;">Miguel Fernando Correa. Instead of using the money on a lavish new lifestyle, he’d
started a foundation to benefit foster children, returning veterans, and
military families. As a veteran himself, Gideon understood the difficulties of
assimilating back into civilian life. Rosie had gone through the foster care
system along with his sister, Ari, so it was only natural for him to want to
help. However, given that Gideon had neither the time nor the expertise to run
a nonprofit foundation, Cal had offered to step in to manage it. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;">Cal’s
first move had been hiring Lyssa, and she absolutely loved her new job. Though
a part of her wondered if her brothers had asked Cal to give her this job
because they knew how unhappy she’d become at her previous company, it only
made her more intent on proving to all of them that she had <i>earned </i>it.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;">As
they waited for coffee, they got down to business, both opening their folders
on their latest potential contributor, resort tycoon Dane Harrington. Dane had
built a worldwide empire of health spas and resorts. Though his headquarters was
in Northern California, he was currently in London launching a new resort. Dane
was the reason for this trip—they hadn’t wanted to wait for his return to the
U.S. to make their pitch.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;">“I’d
like to begin the presentation by explaining a bit about the programs we want
to fund,” Cal told her. “Once I’m done with the dog-and-pony show, it would be
great if you stepped in with the budgets.”<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;">Lyssa
almost gave herself whiplash looking up from the papers she’d been scanning.
“You want <i>me</i> to detail the budgets to Dane?”<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;">Cal
smiled, seemingly unaware of just how sexy he looked—or how much he made her
heart race. “You’re the one who put the numbers together, so you’re the best
person for the job.”<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;">Lyssa
was astounded. She’d figured he’d brought her along simply to run the
presentation software and provide background data if he needed it, not to
actually present her budget to a hugely valuable donor.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;">“Besides,”
he added, “I’ve never seen anyone do as thorough a job as you.”<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;">His
appreciation for her talent made her glow in a way she couldn’t hide. In
Chicago, she’d been relegated to collections despite having earned a degree in
accounting with honors. She’d asked her boss for more responsibility, but he’d
had no interest in finding out what she was capable of. Working for Lean on Us
was a dream come true, even better because she’d moved to San Francisco, which
she loved.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;">As
soon as Lyssa had flown the coop, her parents had also decided it was finally
time to go west and join the rest of the family in the Bay Area. Though she was
pleased that her parents would be nearby, she had a niggling suspicion that one
of the main reasons they were moving was so they could still watch over her. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;">Her
brothers had found the perfect home for her folks in Portola Valley and were
having a great time fixing it up. Her dad had taught them all about home
repairs when they couldn’t afford a repairman, so each of them not only knew
their way around a tool belt, but after spending so many of their days behind a
desk inside an office, they loved the hard, hands-on work of the house
renovation project.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;">Delilah
returned with their coffees. “There you go, Mr. Danniger. Your coffee, just the
way you like it.” <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;">“Thanks,
Delilah.” Though he was polite, he was so focused on the document he was
reading, he barely looked up.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;">“If
there’s anything I can get you, Mr. Danniger, just let me know.” She paused
before adding a husky, “<i>Anything</i> at all.”<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;">At
last, Cal met the woman’s gaze. “I’m good, thanks. But I’ll let you know if I
need anything later in the flight.”<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;">Delilah
practically melted into a puddle of goo when his eyes met hers. She seemed
distracted as she put Lyssa’s mug down in the middle of a stack of papers, coffee
slopping over the rim to leave a ring.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;">Lyssa
sopped it up with a napkin as Cal opened another folder, saying, “Let’s move on
to the six-month forecast.”<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;">Her
numbers were solid on their plans to purchase buildings, hire staff, and buy
equipment. This was where new contributors came in. As huge an amount as sixty
million sounded—and despite the fact that Cal was working <i>pro bono</i> for
the foundation—when the money was spread across everything they hoped to
accomplish, it was nowhere near enough.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;">Throughout
the flight, Cal never wasted a moment. He was intelligent, diligent, incisive,
and all business. And, she thought with a sigh she never gave voice to, sexier
than any man she knew.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

for me to edit. This book is so special to my heart because there’s so much of
my mother in it, from the phrase “I’m a bit peckish” to games of Scrabble and
Skip-Bo to the Silly Sausage Club.

preview!</span><p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color: black; font-family: "Times New Roman",serif;">When
Rose Christopher’s entire world falls apart after losing her mother, her
marriage and her home within a matter of weeks, she’s desperate for income and
a roof over her head. So Rose takes a job as the live-in caregiver of a feisty
87-year-old widow named Agnes. Surprisingly, Agnes is a delight. Too bad the
man who hired Rose seems so cold-hearted and rude.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif;">Or is
there far more to him than Rose imagines?<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color: black; font-family: "Times New Roman",serif;">After
his divorce, Declan Delaney claims he no longer has a heart. Except when it
comes to Agnes. The successful, self-made businessman will do anything for his
former grade school teacher, who inspired his lifelong love of learning,
including ticking off the most important item on her bucket list—a trip to
Ireland where her favorite movie <span class="apple-style-span"><i>The Quiet Man</i></span>
was filmed. And when he sees how Agnes and Rose bond, he knows hiring Rose was
another excellent decision.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color: black; font-family: "Times New Roman",serif;">So
then why is he feeling more than just professional satisfaction when it comes
to Rose? And why can’t he ignore the way her quiet humor, caring manner, and
the promise of her sweet, kissable lips keep drawing him back again and again?<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color: black; font-family: "Times New Roman",serif;">With
Rose and Declan whisking her off for the trip of a lifetime, Agnes packs her
matchmaker hat in her suitcase. Can she help two people with mothballed hearts
learn to dance together in Ireland?</span><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif;"><o:p></o:p></span></p>

and Carol, best friends their whole lives, planned the trip of a lifetime to
Rome. They'd plotted every detail, from touring the Colosseum to throwing coins
in the Trevi Fountain and making wishes. When Carol dies suddenly, Dana is
bereft—even more than when her husband left her for another woman. Then a
bequest from Carol arrives, telling her to take the trip to Rome they’d planned
together. Dana sets out on the journey, determined to rediscover the woman she
used to be and find the woman she wants to become. Carol’s final instruction is
to make a wish in the Trevi Fountain. But how do you make an impossible wish
for the only thing you truly want— to have your best friend back with you?<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;"><br /></span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;">Marshall
Garrison is all business, and so is this trip to Rome. But a chance meeting
with Dana Shaw in the Colosseum changes everything. He doesn’t believe in
forever-after love, but still, there’s something exceptional about this brave
divorcée, gallantly traveling alone. He sets out to be her guide and her
friend, but when he discovers her poignant story, he wants more— to help her
believe in wishing for the impossible. And in the process, he might even

<p class="CSP-ChapterBodyText" style="text-indent: 0in;"><span style="font-family: times; font-size: medium;">I’ve
been working on a brand new series! Which is why you haven’t seen anything new
from me a few months. I wanted to get at least three of the books written for
you so I could put them out back to back in June, July, and August for your summer
reading pleasure!<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class="CSP-ChapterBodyText" style="text-indent: 0in;"><span style="font-family: times; font-size: medium;"><br /></span></p>
<p class="CSP-ChapterBodyText" style="text-indent: 0in;"><span style="font-family: times; font-size: medium;">A
little about the new series. After the shutdowns we all experienced with COVID,
I wanted to give readers an escape. So these stories are destination romance,
vacation romance, wish-fulfillment romance. I want to take you away to foreign
places, treat you to gorgeous locales, a little escapist romance for your
pleasure. All my heroes and heroines are over the age of forty, so their
experiences are later in life, second chance romances.<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class="CSP-ChapterBodyText" style="text-indent: 0in;"><span style="font-family: times; font-size: medium;"><br /></span></p>

wrestling with the guilt of loving his best friend’s wife. Now Ryder must take
Julia to Provence to scatter her husband’s ashes. He thought losing his best
friend was painful, but keeping his hands off Julia will be the hardest thing
he’s ever done.<b><o:p></o:p></b></span></span></p><p style="margin: 0in;"><span style="mso-bidi-font-weight: bold;"><span style="font-family: times; font-size: medium;"><br /></span></span></p>

<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><span style="color: black;">Gideon Jones came back from war a changed man. Though the Maverick
Billionaires claim he’s one of their own, he knows he doesn't deserve to be
part of their tightly knit unit. Just like he doesn't deserve Rosie Diaz—an
amazing mother…and an utterly captivating woman that he can't stop dreaming
about.</span>

<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><span style="color: black;">Rosie Diaz pulled herself out of the foster care system and made a
great life for herself while raising Jorge, the son she adores. Only one thing
is missing—a good man, one she can respect and love with her whole heart. A man
exactly like her best friend’s older brother Gideon.</span> </span></span></div>

Noah, while the couple is on their honeymoon, they have no idea of the havoc
two matchmaking little boys can create. Not to mention the steamy kisses that
Rosie and Gideon can’t help but steal from each other as their connection
deepens and grows. But when mother and son are threatened, Gideon will stop at
nothing to protect them. Will he finally believe that he truly is Maverick
material…and worthy of Rosie and Jorge’s love?</span> </span></span></div>

<div align="left" style="text-align: left; text-indent: 0in;">
</div>
<div style="margin-top: 0in;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">Gideon Jones was so good with Jorge and
Noah, two six-year-olds who made enough noise to rival a herd of stampeding
cattle. As he handed each boy a cube of bread, Gideon gently encouraged the
boys, showing them how to stretch out one hand with the bread in the center of
the palm. They were both so attentive, while their bodies quivered with the
attempt to stay still long enough for the peacock to feel safe eating from
their hands.</span></div>
<div align="left" style="text-align: left; text-indent: 0in;">
</div>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">Rosie Diaz’s heart melted as she watched from the picnic
area, where a huge tent provided shade for the tables and dance floor that had
been set up for her best friend’s wedding. Ariana Jones had first met Matt
Tremont when she agreed to be his young son’s nanny. Ari showered Noah with
love—and it wasn’t long before Ari and Matt were in love too. Though Rosie knew
their happiness hadn’t come without struggles, their relationship was still a
fairy tale come true to her. She couldn’t be happier that her friend had found
love.</span><br />
<div align="left" style="text-align: left; text-indent: 0in;">
</div>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">It was a gorgeous, sunny Saturday in August as Rosie’s son,
Jorge, and Ari’s son, Noah, hunkered down before the peacock, his magnificent
tail feathers trailing behind him. When Ari and Rosie had been teens together
in foster care, this what they’d dreamed of—that their children would end up
being best friends.</span><br />
<div align="left" style="text-align: left; text-indent: 0in;">
</div>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">Rosie and Ari were sisters of the heart—along with their
friend Chi, who had also been a part of the foster care system. Rosie had met
them when her parents died in her early teens. She loved Ari for her eternal
optimism and her loyalty to her brother. She loved Chi for her strength. When
her foster family couldn’t say her Chinese name—Zhi Ruo—correctly, Chi had
adopted their pronunciation as her own, saying it was a powerful name, like Tai
Chi.</span><br />
<div align="left" style="text-align: left; text-indent: 0in;">
</div>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">Rosie believed the three of them would be best friends
forever and ever. They’d seen her through the dark days when she was eighteen
and pregnant and alone after her baby’s father had abandoned her. They’d seen
her through Jorge’s birth when she was nineteen. Jorge’s biological father—DNA
being his only contribution—was the one who’d taught her not to trust men. At
least until she’d met the Mavericks. In the same way that Ari and Chi had
taught her the loyalty and goodness of friends, the Mavericks had taught her
the goodness of men.</span><br />
<div align="left" style="text-align: left; text-indent: 0in;">
</div>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">As much as Rosie wished her parents were still alive, she
wouldn’t change any of what she’d gone through. She couldn’t imagine her life,
her world, without Jorge.</span><br />
<div align="left" style="text-align: left; text-indent: 0in;">
</div>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">Her son was the light of her life, an amazing little human
being. Sometimes she couldn’t believe he had come from her. She and Ari and Chi
had raised Jorge to be the confident, outgoing, loving boy he was.</span><br />
<div align="left" style="text-align: left; text-indent: 0in;">
</div>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">So how could she regret anything? Especially on such a
beautiful day when true love was all that mattered. As a wonderful bonus, she
was finally getting to spend time with Ari’s brother. Gideon was so patient
with the boys, never yelling, never snapping.</span><br />
<div align="left" style="text-align: left; text-indent: 0in;">
</div>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">With adults, Gideon didn’t talk much, didn’t smile much. But
when he played with Noah and Jorge, it was as if he became the man he would
have been if he’d never been scarred by his time in the army, if he’d never
lost touch with Ari. When he was with the boys, he became the funny, amazing,
big brother Ari had always talked about.</span><br />
<div align="left" style="text-align: left; text-indent: 0in;">
</div>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">The kind of man to whom Rosie could so easily lose her
heart.</span><br />
<div align="left" style="text-align: left; text-indent: 0in;">
</div>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">Maybe she’d already given him a tiny piece of her heart,
especially when she watched him in unguarded moments like this with the boys.</span><br />
<div align="left" style="text-align: left; text-indent: 0in;">
</div>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">He hadn’t yet changed into his tux and was still dressed in
jeans and a T-shirt that showcased every rippling muscle. He was a vision of
rough, raw, sexy power, accentuated by blue eyes and dark blond hair worn
short, as if he’d never completely left the military behind. He could see right
into you with those eyes. Or right through you as though you didn’t exist.
Rosie longed for him to look at her, really look at her,
to see what was on the inside. He made her warm all over. He made her aware of
every beat of her heart. He made her want to trust a man again.</span><br />
<div align="left" style="text-align: left; text-indent: 0in;">
</div>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">Just then, the peacock stretched out his long neck and
pecked the bit of bread from Jorge’s hand. Rosie’s little boy wriggled with
delight, pressing his lips together to suppress the squeal of joy dying to get
out. Gideon smiled his approval, ruffling Jorge’s hair. Then he urged Noah
forward, his nephew all big eyes and wonder as the peacock grabbed the bread
out of his hand too.</span><br />
<div align="left" style="text-align: left; text-indent: 0in;">
</div>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">It didn’t matter that Ari wasn’t Noah’s birth mom; Gideon
treated him like he was his own blood. No one ever used the word stepson.
Ari was simply Noah’s mom, Gideon was his uncle, and Matt was his dad. There
was so much love among them all, it made Rosie gooey on the inside.</span><br />
<div align="left" style="text-align: left; text-indent: 0in;">
</div>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">Ari and Matt had decided to have their wedding at the
petting zoo and open-air puppet theater in San Jose because it was Noah’s
favorite spot. They’d rented the whole park for the day, and the wedding itself
would take place on the stage. Rosie and Gideon were currently in charge of
Noah while Ari was getting ready in the bridal tent.</span><br />
<div align="left" style="text-align: left; text-indent: 0in;">
</div>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">Rosie, as maid of honor, would need to get herself ready
soon, but there had been so many last-minute things to check on. She wanted everything
to be absolutely perfect. And she knew that Gideon, who would be giving Ari
away, wanted perfection just as much for his sister’s big day.</span><br />
<div align="left" style="text-align: left; text-indent: 0in;">
</div>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">With the docent looking on, Gideon showed Noah and Jorge how
to carefully stretch out a hand to pet the peacock’s brilliant blue neck. The
boys were clearly awed by the bird’s magnificence, by his feathers, by the way
he ate from their hands and let them touch him.</span><br />
<div align="left" style="text-align: left; text-indent: 0in;">
</div>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">Though Gideon was ten years older, Ari claimed that when
they were kids, he’d never treated her like she was an annoying pest. Instead,
he’d played games with her, taken her to the park, made her laugh until her
stomach hurt. Rosie supposed that because their mom had been an addict, Gideon
had grown up fast, taking care of the two of them.</span><br />
<div align="left" style="text-align: left; text-indent: 0in;">
</div>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">When he was eighteen, he’d enlisted in the army, wanting to
make enough money to help Ari and their mom with living expenses. But he
couldn’t have predicted their mother would move them around so much that he’d
lose track of them—or that he wouldn’t get notification of their mom’s death
until she’d been gone six months. By then, finding Ari while stationed in the
Middle East had been impossible. Despite searching for her after he got out, it
had taken sixteen years since the day he’d joined up for them to find each other
again, after Matt had hired a private investigator to find Ari’s long-lost
brother.</span><br />
<div align="left" style="text-align: left; text-indent: 0in;">
</div>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">Rosie would have loved Matt just for that, even if he wasn’t
such a great guy on top of it. The fact that he was a billionaire—along with
his four best friends, the Mavericks—was irrelevant. Although, she thought with
a small smile, she wasn’t going to lie and say she hadn’t enjoyed flying on his
private plane last month.</span><br />
<div align="left" style="text-align: left; text-indent: 0in;">
</div>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">“Sorry I haven’t been helping you take care of the final
wedding details,” Gideon said, his deep voice surprising her. Rosie had been so
lost in her thoughts she hadn’t realized Gideon had left the boys with the
docent, who was explaining about peachicks and peacocks and peahens to her rapt
audience. “The boys were so excited about the animals,” he added, “I wanted to
get them started.”</span><br />
<div align="left" style="text-align: left; text-indent: 0in;">
</div>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">“I’m glad you did.” She turned to smile at him. “And I
haven’t needed any help. Fortunately, the caterers are great. They’ve got
everything set out the way Ari wanted.”</span><br />
<div align="left" style="text-align: left; text-indent: 0in;">
</div>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">Gideon was so tall, broad-shouldered, and powerfully muscled
that being this close to him made her shivery inside, her breath catching as
her heart beat fast enough for her to feel her pulse in her fingertips. There
was that ancient cliché—he stole my breath. That’s what
Gideon did to her.</span><br />
<div align="left" style="text-align: left; text-indent: 0in;">
</div>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">Not that he seemed to have even the slightest clue what he
did to her—or any woman, for that matter. Rosie couldn’t remember ever seeing
him flirt with anyone, and though he was a devastatingly good-looking man, his
hard shell was so intimidating that Rosie had yet to see any woman bold enough
to flirt with him either. Even when they played water polo in Ari and Matt’s
pool or jumped on Noah’s trampoline, and she’d catch Gideon looking at her, she
wasn’t able to read what was in his mind. Did he think she was pretty? Did she
make his heart race the way he always sent hers into overdrive?</span><br />
<div align="left" style="text-align: left; text-indent: 0in;">
</div>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">Gideon hid all his emotions behind a wall no one could
scale.</span><br />
<div align="left" style="text-align: left; text-indent: 0in;">
</div>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">He had been deployed in the Middle East for seven years, and
though he hadn’t spoken to anyone, not even his sister, about his experiences
during those years, it was obvious they’d left their mark on his heart—along
with deep, dark shadows in his eyes.</span><br />
<div align="left" style="text-align: left; text-indent: 0in;">
</div>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">Only with Noah and Jorge did Gideon seem to be his true
self. Rosie longed for him to be this way all the time, not just with the boys.
She longed for him to relax and laugh with her the way he did with them.</span><br />
<div align="left" style="text-align: left; text-indent: 0in;">
</div>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">But, just as with every time before, when he caught her eyes
on him, his immediate withdrawal was like a physical punch. The smile died on
his lips, his blue eyes turned into dark, fathomless pools, even his body
seemed to grow rigid. As if he’d turned to stone. As if he couldn’t allow
himself happiness with anyone but the boys. Even with Ari, whom he clearly
loved with everything in him, he held something back.</span><br />
<div align="left" style="text-align: left; text-indent: 0in;">
</div>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">It broke Rosie’s heart. If only they could all
have happy endings. Matt, Ari, herself…and especially Gideon.</span><br />

<span style="color: black;">Neal Thomas walked out on his

thirty years through a debilitating illness. Now, after a year of grieving his

<div style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0in;">
<span style="color: #333333;">I've
got a brand new <em><b>Naughty After Hours</b></em> erotic romance novella for
you this month! An <b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;"><i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">After Hours Naughty Bite</i></b>, as I like to call them. If you read <strong><i><a href="https://jenniferskully.com/averynaughtychristmas.html">A Very Naughty
Christmas</a></i></strong>, you'll remember in the epilogue that something
strange was going on with Neal Thomas (hint, hint, his wife wanted to sleep
with his boss!! Covering mouth in shock!!). Neal’s story is so big that it’s
going to take two parts to tell it. So first get the scoop on Neal and his wife
in </span><a href="https://jenniferskully.com/showmehowtoleaveyou.html"><b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;"><i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">Show

<span style="color: #333333;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0in;">
A man with a bewitching wife. And a
huge problem.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0in;">
<br /></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0in;">
Neal Thomas’s wife found <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">The Club</i>, an exclusive establishment
catering to those with unconventional tastes. First, they went there to watch.
Then they went there to be watched. And it fired up their love life beyond his
wildest imaginings.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0in;">
<br /></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0in;">
But now Neal’s wife wants to do
more. With other men. While Neal watches.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0in;">
<br /></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0in;">
Suddenly it isn’t so crazy hot
anymore, and Neal has to ask himself if he’s enough for his wife.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0in;">
Now he has to decide. Does he love
her? Or does he leave her?<o:p></o:p></div>

</span>You've gotten to know Kate and Joe in both <em><b><a href="https://jenniferskully.com/itmustbemagic.html">It Must Be Magic</a></b></em> and <b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;"><i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;"><a href="https://jenniferskully.com/onecrazykiss.html">One Crazy Kiss</a></i></b>.

me a little of my own mother, although, my proper British mother would
definitely NOT say some of the things Grandma Blue does.</span> You’ll also
revisit with Madison and T. Larry, Jack and Opal, Tanner and Lili. And all the

</span><span style="color: #222222;">Google Search: How to persuade a woman dead set
against relationships to have a relationship with you, particularly when you’re
a funeral director?</span><span style="color: black;"> <br />
<br />
</span><span style="color: #222222;">Joe Swann wants the whole shebang—marriage,
kids, the white picket fence. And he’s determined to go after the woman he
wants—Kate Carson.</span><span style="color: black;"> <br />
<br />
</span><span style="color: #222222;">Joe’s not your typical bad boy. But he’s
very <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">very</i> bad for Kate because he’s
nesting. And that’s a scary thing for a career-minded woman. Besides, right
now, Joe’s life is a complete mess—especially considering </span>the hastily
buried body Kate and Joe stumble over<span style="color: #222222;">—and the smartest
thing Kate can do is steer clear at all costs.</span><span style="color: black;">

fire and<span style="color: #222222;"> his touch didn’t drive her crazy. How’s a
girl—even a career woman—supposed to resist?</span></span></span></span><br />

<br />
<div style="margin: 16px 0px; text-indent: 0in;">
<span style="font-family: Times, "Times New Roman", serif;"><span style="margin: 0px;">Then look no
more! Grab a copy of </span><em><b><span style="font-style: normal; margin: 0px;"><a href="https://jenniferskully.com/itmustbemagic.html"><i><span style="color: blue;">It Must Be
Magic</span></i></a> </span></b></em><em><span style="font-style: normal; margin: 0px;">today! So what makes something funny? It can be
slapstick, it can be circumstance, it can be characters. What I find funny are
the characters we meet on our reading journey. And I’ve populated the little
town of Hideaway Creek with people who make me laugh. Hideaway Creek is in the
foothills of the Santa Cruz Mountains, close enough to get to the ocean and the
Boardwalk in twenty minutes. There’s the redwood park and the train park and
Hideaway Creek was once the home of a gangster hideaway where all the movie
stars of the 1920’s came up from Hollywood to live on the wild side for a
little while. (Of course this is the neck of the woods where I live!) And when
you visit Hideaway Creek, drop by The Coffee Stain for a marvelous mocha by
Manny. Or get your hair cut in the Mane Man. Or buy a gorgeous rose from
Flowers by Nature where Lili Goodweather works.</span></em></span></div>

<em><span style="font-style: normal; margin: 0px;"><span style="font-family: Times, "Times New Roman", serif;">And here’s
a little about the tale…</span></span></em><br />
<em><span style="font-style: normal; margin: 0px;"><span style="font-family: Times, "Times New Roman", serif;"><br /></span></span></em>
<span style="margin: 0px;"><span style="font-family: Times, "Times New Roman", serif;">Everyone
believes in carpe diem... don’t they?</span></span><br />
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px;">
<span style="margin: 0px;"><span style="font-family: Times, "Times New Roman", serif;">For
flower shop clerk Lili Goodweather, that’s what life is all about--savoring the
precious moments and all the beauty the world has to offer. So it breaks her
heart when 12-year-old Erika Rutland can no longer see the magic in everyday
moments.</span></span></div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px;">
<span style="margin: 0px;"><span style="font-family: Times, "Times New Roman", serif;">No, not everyone believes in
carpe diem… or telepathic communication with animals.</span></span></div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px;">
<span style="margin: 0px;"><span style="font-family: Times, "Times New Roman", serif;">A
firm believer in all things practical, widower Tanner Rutland doesn’t want his
daughter’s mind filled with Lili’s fanciful tales—especially her claims that
she can communicate with cats. And worse, that his daughter’s cat Fluffy has
witnessed a murder. When Lili asks him to help search for the dead body that
just absolutely has to be out in the redwoods—she claims—he’s forced to
confront whether Lili is just plain crazy or her gift with animals is real.</span></span></div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px;">
<span style="margin: 0px;"><span style="font-family: Times, "Times New Roman", serif;">But
after that first delicious kiss, he starts to think he’s the one who’s gone
completely crazy. Because suddenly there’s something about Lili that Tanner
just can’t resist.</span></span></div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px;">
<span style="margin: 0px;"><span style="font-family: Times, "Times New Roman", serif;">Can
this single-minded career man give up everything he believes for a little touch
of magic?</span></span></div>

published book. And I still love the story. I was at the forefront of the whole
stepbrother genre! For the re-release of the book (after I got my rights back),
I wanted to give readers something special. So in <b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;"><i><a href="http://www.jenniferskully.com/anywayshewantsit.html">Any
Way She Wants It</a></i></b>, Tricia told everyone how she met Justine Jarreau,
the heroine of </span><em><b><span style="font-size: 12.0pt; font-style: normal;"><a href="https://jenniferskully.com/morethananight.html"><i>More Than a Night</i></a></span></b></em><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt;">. And believe
me, those two girls got up to some naughty stuff back in college where they
met! They were roommates at a time when both of them really needed a friend.
And that’s how </span><em><b><span style="font-size: 12.0pt; font-style: normal;"><a href="https://jenniferskully.com/morethananight.html"><i>More Than a Night</i></a></span></b></em><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt;">, even though it
was written before, became a part of the West Coast series. I’ve also revamped
this version of the book right from page one and expanded it, too, and now
there are three extra chapters including a new ending! Okay, it’s a romance,
right, so there was an HEA then and an HEA now! So have fun with this brand new
version of </span><em><b><span style="font-size: 12.0pt; font-style: normal;"><a href="https://jenniferskully.com/morethananight.html"><i>More Than a Night</i></a></span></b></em><em><span style="font-size: 12.0pt; font-style: normal; mso-bidi-font-weight: bold;">! </span></em></div>

All Justine Jarreau wants in a one-night stand is an
uncomplicated, casual, mind-blowing sexual experience. And Lucas No-Last-Name
seems like the perfect candidate to fulfill her fantasy. The sex <em>is</em>
utterly mind-blowing. But then Justine discovers Lucas has an ulterior motive.
Not only does he disclose that her father just had a heart attack, but that he
is her new stepbrother and the CEO of Jarreau Wineries, the job Justine coveted
until her father disowned her years ago.</div>
<div class="verdannasmallbodyCxSpMiddle" style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0in; mso-add-space: auto;">
Her stepbrother. And her replacement. So much for
uncomplicated and casual.</div>
<div class="verdannasmallbodyCxSpLast" style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0in; mso-add-space: auto;">
Lucas Falconer wants Justine to come home for good, for her
father’s sake, a man Lucas now considers part of his family. And family is the
most important thing in the world to Lucas. But Justine isn’t falling in with
his plans. His only option is to seduce her into staying. He did it that first
night, and he knows he can do it again. The pleasure will be all his.</div>

<b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;">Chapter One</span></b></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="tab-stops: 0in .5in 1.0in 1.5in 2.0in 2.5in 3.0in 3.5in 4.0in 4.5in 5.0in 5.5in 6.0in 6.5in;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;">Justine
Jarreau wanted a man.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="tab-stops: 0in .5in 1.0in 1.5in 2.0in 2.5in 3.0in 3.5in 4.0in 4.5in 5.0in 5.5in 6.0in 6.5in;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;">But
only for the night.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpLast" style="tab-stops: 0in .5in 1.0in 1.5in 2.0in 2.5in 3.0in 3.5in 4.0in 4.5in 5.0in 5.5in 6.0in 6.5in;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;">The
trendy restaurant on Union Square was perfect for her needs. It overflowed with
tourists, businessmen, and clubbers. San Francisco bedlam on a cool Friday
night.</span></div>
<div class="MsoBodyTextCxSpFirst" style="tab-stops: 0in .5in 1.0in 1.5in 2.0in 2.5in 3.0in 3.5in 4.0in 4.5in 5.0in 5.5in 6.0in 6.5in;">
<span style="color: windowtext; font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; font-weight: normal;">She’d found her quarry seated two tables away. Not movie-star
handsome. Dark Italian looks, a square jaw, sexy eyes, and short brown hair. She
liked short hair. And his tan, definitely natural. No tanning booth for this
guy.</span></div>
<div class="MsoBodyTextCxSpLast" style="tab-stops: 0in .5in 1.0in 1.5in 2.0in 2.5in 3.0in 3.5in 4.0in 4.5in 5.0in 5.5in 6.0in 6.5in;">
<span style="color: windowtext; font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; font-weight: normal;">He’d passed her table on the way to his, and she’d enjoyed
the scintillating rear view. Late thirties, maybe forty. Tailored suit. Totally
hot body.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpFirst" style="tab-stops: 0in .5in 1.0in 1.5in 2.0in 2.5in 3.0in 3.5in 4.0in 4.5in 5.0in 5.5in 6.0in 6.5in;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;">But his
looks alone didn’t make him the best catch of the evening. There was something
about him, something that made her keep watching, something that made her keep
wanting.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="tab-stops: 0in .5in 1.0in 1.5in 2.0in 2.5in 3.0in 3.5in 4.0in 4.5in 5.0in 5.5in 6.0in 6.5in;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;">Despite
the flutters in her stomach and the tingles in her hands, could she really go
through with this? Find a man in a bar, go to bed with him?</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="tab-stops: 0in .5in 1.0in 1.5in 2.0in 2.5in 3.0in 3.5in 4.0in 4.5in 5.0in 5.5in 6.0in 6.5in;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;">Their
eyes met, they exchanged smiles, her skin heated with erotic images.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="tab-stops: 0in .5in 1.0in 1.5in 2.0in 2.5in 3.0in 3.5in 4.0in 4.5in 5.0in 5.5in 6.0in 6.5in;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;">Then he
sent the glass of chardonnay to her table. Right as she’d finished her first.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="tab-stops: 0in .5in 1.0in 1.5in 2.0in 2.5in 3.0in 3.5in 4.0in 4.5in 5.0in 5.5in 6.0in 6.5in;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;">A woman
likes to be noticed, especially dressed in a short skirt, tight sweater, and
four-inch killer heels.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="tab-stops: 0in .5in 1.0in 1.5in 2.0in 2.5in 3.0in 3.5in 4.0in 4.5in 5.0in 5.5in 6.0in 6.5in;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;">Better
yet, a woman likes subtlety. He’d tipped his drink to her. No harassment, no
asking to join her, no swaggering dickhead mentality. Just a salute with his
drink.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="tab-stops: 0in .5in 1.0in 1.5in 2.0in 2.5in 3.0in 3.5in 4.0in 4.5in 5.0in 5.5in 6.0in 6.5in;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;">Then
his eyes issued an unspoken invitation. If she chose to take him up on it.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="tab-stops: 0in .5in 1.0in 1.5in 2.0in 2.5in 3.0in 3.5in 4.0in 4.5in 5.0in 5.5in 6.0in 6.5in;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;">It was
crazy, it was alarming, it was what she wanted. Wanted badly. And yes, she
could go through with it. Despite the nerves rattling her stomach.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="tab-stops: 0in .5in 1.0in 1.5in 2.0in 2.5in 3.0in 3.5in 4.0in 4.5in 5.0in 5.5in 6.0in 6.5in;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;">He
called for his check. She signaled for hers. He laid his money down and rose to
leave, with one last smile for Justine.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="tab-stops: 0in .5in 1.0in 1.5in 2.0in 2.5in 3.0in 3.5in 4.0in 4.5in 5.0in 5.5in 6.0in 6.5in;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;">She paid
her bill and left to look for him on the sidewalk. A rich coffee scent drifted
from the café next to the restaurant. The December evening had grown colder and
goose bumps pimpled her bare legs. She should have worn nylons or leggings, but
neither suited her plans for the night.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="tab-stops: 0in .5in 1.0in 1.5in 2.0in 2.5in 3.0in 3.5in 4.0in 4.5in 5.0in 5.5in 6.0in 6.5in;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;">He was
just ahead and hadn’t seen her. She’d have to make the next move.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="tab-stops: 0in .5in 1.0in 1.5in 2.0in 2.5in 3.0in 3.5in 4.0in 4.5in 5.0in 5.5in 6.0in 6.5in;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;">“Excuse
me.”</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="tab-stops: 0in .5in 1.0in 1.5in 2.0in 2.5in 3.0in 3.5in 4.0in 4.5in 5.0in 5.5in 6.0in 6.5in;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;">He
turned, smiled. As if he’d been waiting for her.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="tab-stops: 0in .5in 1.0in 1.5in 2.0in 2.5in 3.0in 3.5in 4.0in 4.5in 5.0in 5.5in 6.0in 6.5in;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;">God. She’d
thought him attractive before, but up close, he was melt-in-your-mouth
gorgeous. It was the eyes, a deep brown as rich as toffee. Long dark eyelashes
and a smile hot enough to make her heart stutter. She was almost afraid to hear
his voice in case it ruined her fantasy.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="tab-stops: 0in .5in 1.0in 1.5in 2.0in 2.5in 3.0in 3.5in 4.0in 4.5in 5.0in 5.5in 6.0in 6.5in;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;">She was
dizzied by the sights and the sounds and the people and him. And dizzy because
she’d never done anything like this before. She’d struggled through
relationships, but they got in the way of her career. Becoming CFO of a million-dollar
company—at <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">least</i> a million—was more
important than anything.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="tab-stops: 0in .5in 1.0in 1.5in 2.0in 2.5in 3.0in 3.5in 4.0in 4.5in 5.0in 5.5in 6.0in 6.5in;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;">And the
idea of a one-night stand was absolutely liberating.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="tab-stops: 0in .5in 1.0in 1.5in 2.0in 2.5in 3.0in 3.5in 4.0in 4.5in 5.0in 5.5in 6.0in 6.5in;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;">“Thank
you for the wine. Let me treat you now.” It could have been a question, but she
made it firm. An expectation.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="tab-stops: 0in .5in 1.0in 1.5in 2.0in 2.5in 3.0in 3.5in 4.0in 4.5in 5.0in 5.5in 6.0in 6.5in;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;">His
eyes darkened to deep chocolate. “It would be my pleasure to accept.”</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="tab-stops: 0in .5in 1.0in 1.5in 2.0in 2.5in 3.0in 3.5in 4.0in 4.5in 5.0in 5.5in 6.0in 6.5in;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;">Justine
practically liquefied. He had a phone sex voice, low, deep, tongue-tying and toe-curling.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="tab-stops: 0in .5in 1.0in 1.5in 2.0in 2.5in 3.0in 3.5in 4.0in 4.5in 5.0in 5.5in 6.0in 6.5in;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;">“My
hotel’s across the street.” He paused, as if he knew the effect of that phone
sex voice and wanted to see what it did to her. “Good jazz piano in the bar.”</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="tab-stops: 0in .5in 1.0in 1.5in 2.0in 2.5in 3.0in 3.5in 4.0in 4.5in 5.0in 5.5in 6.0in 6.5in;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;">The
voice did it. Made her sizzling and shivery. The jazz piano was the whipped
cream on top. And she’d let him lick it off. If he was a very good boy.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="tab-stops: 0in .5in 1.0in 1.5in 2.0in 2.5in 3.0in 3.5in 4.0in 4.5in 5.0in 5.5in 6.0in 6.5in;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;">Being
an out-of-towner was also very, very good. She checked his ring finger for the
telltale band of white and didn’t find it. She should have checked earlier
because she wanted a man with no strings and no wedding ring. She didn’t poach
in someone else’s forest, not even for one night.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="tab-stops: 0in .5in 1.0in 1.5in 2.0in 2.5in 3.0in 3.5in 4.0in 4.5in 5.0in 5.5in 6.0in 6.5in;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;">She
smiled, giving him a slow, seductive sweep of her eyelashes. “Sounds goods.”</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="tab-stops: 0in .5in 1.0in 1.5in 2.0in 2.5in 3.0in 3.5in 4.0in 4.5in 5.0in 5.5in 6.0in 6.5in;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;">He took
her hand. Warm and unexpected. Then the prickle of pins and needles and desire.
She felt naked under her skirt, and hot, oh so hot, hot enough to forget it was
winter instead of summer.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="tab-stops: 0in .5in 1.0in 1.5in 2.0in 2.5in 3.0in 3.5in 4.0in 4.5in 5.0in 5.5in 6.0in 6.5in;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;">“My
name’s Justine.” Her voice was too breathy, too needy, too sultry.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="tab-stops: 0in .5in 1.0in 1.5in 2.0in 2.5in 3.0in 3.5in 4.0in 4.5in 5.0in 5.5in 6.0in 6.5in;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;">But he
must have thought it was perfect because he pulled her close, threading through
the traffic stopped on the street, his touch protective and possessive.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="tab-stops: 0in .5in 1.0in 1.5in 2.0in 2.5in 3.0in 3.5in 4.0in 4.5in 5.0in 5.5in 6.0in 6.5in;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;">They
reached the opposite curb, and he looked down, at her eyes, her lips, their
clasped hands. And her mind suddenly forgot to tell her heart how to beat and
her lungs how to breathe.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="tab-stops: 0in .5in 1.0in 1.5in 2.0in 2.5in 3.0in 3.5in 4.0in 4.5in 5.0in 5.5in 6.0in 6.5in;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;">“Lucas.”
He gave her his name with an electrifying smile, as if he were citing flowery
poetry or talking dirty.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="tab-stops: 0in .5in 1.0in 1.5in 2.0in 2.5in 3.0in 3.5in 4.0in 4.5in 5.0in 5.5in 6.0in 6.5in;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;">The effect
on her was immediate, hot, wet, right there and ready.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="tab-stops: 0in .5in 1.0in 1.5in 2.0in 2.5in 3.0in 3.5in 4.0in 4.5in 5.0in 5.5in 6.0in 6.5in;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;">The St.
George doorman ushered them through the gold-trimmed entrance and up the stairs
to a lobby of lush carpet and plush chairs, elegant women in evening wear and polished
men in tuxedos.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="tab-stops: 0in .5in 1.0in 1.5in 2.0in 2.5in 3.0in 3.5in 4.0in 4.5in 5.0in 5.5in 6.0in 6.5in;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;">Theater-goers
filled the bar, drinking and gossiping before the show while the piano player
warmed up his fingers and the keys before his set.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="tab-stops: 0in .5in 1.0in 1.5in 2.0in 2.5in 3.0in 3.5in 4.0in 4.5in 5.0in 5.5in 6.0in 6.5in;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;">Lucas
waved a bill, and the host led them to an intimate table in the corner window
overlooking Powell Street. Justine curled her legs beneath her on the bench
seat and leaned an elbow along the back, her pose relaxed, her insides jumbled.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="tab-stops: 0in .5in 1.0in 1.5in 2.0in 2.5in 3.0in 3.5in 4.0in 4.5in 5.0in 5.5in 6.0in 6.5in;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;">Lucas
ordered the drinks, Campari and soda for him, another white wine for her. She
needed to sip this one slowly or she’d lose her head over Mr. Lucas Hot Body.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="tab-stops: 0in .5in 1.0in 1.5in 2.0in 2.5in 3.0in 3.5in 4.0in 4.5in 5.0in 5.5in 6.0in 6.5in;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;">“I love
people-watching. That’s what I like best about living in the city.” Then she
turned the talk to him. “Are you here on business?”</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="tab-stops: 0in .5in 1.0in 1.5in 2.0in 2.5in 3.0in 3.5in 4.0in 4.5in 5.0in 5.5in 6.0in 6.5in;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;">“Just
for one day. I’m driving back tomorrow.”</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="tab-stops: 0in .5in 1.0in 1.5in 2.0in 2.5in 3.0in 3.5in 4.0in 4.5in 5.0in 5.5in 6.0in 6.5in;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;">Their
drinks arrived. Lucas tapped his to hers and drank. She wanted to lick the
bitter Campari from his lips.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="tab-stops: 0in .5in 1.0in 1.5in 2.0in 2.5in 3.0in 3.5in 4.0in 4.5in 5.0in 5.5in 6.0in 6.5in;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;">To hear
her better over the din of voices and laughter and music, he pulled his chair
closer, his knee resting against hers. The contact pulsed along her thigh. She’d
worn a bra, but the peaks of her nipples against the thin lace felt like beacons.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="tab-stops: 0in .5in 1.0in 1.5in 2.0in 2.5in 3.0in 3.5in 4.0in 4.5in 5.0in 5.5in 6.0in 6.5in;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;">But he
looked her in the eye. “I take it you live in the city? And you work here,
too?”</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="tab-stops: 0in .5in 1.0in 1.5in 2.0in 2.5in 3.0in 3.5in 4.0in 4.5in 5.0in 5.5in 6.0in 6.5in;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;">“I work
on the Peninsula.” That was the thing she hated about the city, the grinding
commute south, the endless rush hour. “I’m Controller for a small manufacturing
firm.”</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="tab-stops: 0in .5in 1.0in 1.5in 2.0in 2.5in 3.0in 3.5in 4.0in 4.5in 5.0in 5.5in 6.0in 6.5in;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;">His
eyes trailed her tight sweater and short skirt in a long sexy onceover. Then
the corner of his mouth lifted, not a smile, not a smirk, just an acknowledgement
that he’d seen. And he liked. “You don’t look like any accountant I’ve ever
met.”</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="tab-stops: 0in .5in 1.0in 1.5in 2.0in 2.5in 3.0in 3.5in 4.0in 4.5in 5.0in 5.5in 6.0in 6.5in;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;">Her gaze
followed the muscles of his chest down to the flatness of his abdomen, then
onto the black slacks outlining the promise of something very tasty.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpLast" style="tab-stops: 0in .5in 1.0in 1.5in 2.0in 2.5in 3.0in 3.5in 4.0in 4.5in 5.0in 5.5in 6.0in 6.5in;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;">She
really had let sex go for too long, way too long, if she was noticing a man’s
package.</span></div>
<div class="MsoBodyText" style="tab-stops: 0in .5in 1.0in 1.5in 2.0in 2.5in 3.0in 3.5in 4.0in 4.5in 5.0in 5.5in 6.0in 6.5in;">
<span style="color: windowtext; font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; font-weight: normal;">“Well, you don’t look like a toilet paper salesman from
Muncie either.”</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpFirst" style="tab-stops: 0in .5in 1.0in 1.5in 2.0in 2.5in 3.0in 3.5in 4.0in 4.5in 5.0in 5.5in 6.0in 6.5in;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;">He
laughed, a sound she felt like a kiss low on her belly.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="tab-stops: 0in .5in 1.0in 1.5in 2.0in 2.5in 3.0in 3.5in 4.0in 4.5in 5.0in 5.5in 6.0in 6.5in;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;">“I’ll
take that as a compliment.”</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="tab-stops: 0in .5in 1.0in 1.5in 2.0in 2.5in 3.0in 3.5in 4.0in 4.5in 5.0in 5.5in 6.0in 6.5in;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;">If she
wasn’t careful, she’d have to start fanning herself.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="tab-stops: 0in .5in 1.0in 1.5in 2.0in 2.5in 3.0in 3.5in 4.0in 4.5in 5.0in 5.5in 6.0in 6.5in;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;">A man
laughed too loudly at the next table, and she thought he’d overheard the toilet
paper comment. But no one was listening, and besides, who would be able to hear
over the jazz piano? Who would actually care?</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="tab-stops: 0in .5in 1.0in 1.5in 2.0in 2.5in 3.0in 3.5in 4.0in 4.5in 5.0in 5.5in 6.0in 6.5in;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;">And she
wanted to know more about this man. A lot more. “So where are you visiting us
from?”</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="tab-stops: 0in .5in 1.0in 1.5in 2.0in 2.5in 3.0in 3.5in 4.0in 4.5in 5.0in 5.5in 6.0in 6.5in;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;">“The
Central Coast.”</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="tab-stops: 0in .5in 1.0in 1.5in 2.0in 2.5in 3.0in 3.5in 4.0in 4.5in 5.0in 5.5in 6.0in 6.5in;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;">Not
very definitive. That could be anywhere from Salinas to Santa Maria, over two
hundred miles. She’d lived down there, too, a very long time ago.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="tab-stops: 0in .5in 1.0in 1.5in 2.0in 2.5in 3.0in 3.5in 4.0in 4.5in 5.0in 5.5in 6.0in 6.5in;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;">But she
didn’t try to pry out all his secrets, just made conversation. A prelude to
asking him if he’d like to spend a few mutually satisfying hours with her.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="tab-stops: 0in .5in 1.0in 1.5in 2.0in 2.5in 3.0in 3.5in 4.0in 4.5in 5.0in 5.5in 6.0in 6.5in;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;">If he
didn’t turn out to be a dickhead.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="tab-stops: 0in .5in 1.0in 1.5in 2.0in 2.5in 3.0in 3.5in 4.0in 4.5in 5.0in 5.5in 6.0in 6.5in;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;">So far
so good. Very good. He was smart, he was handsome, his technique was
understated, he didn’t come on too strong or too fast.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="tab-stops: 0in .5in 1.0in 1.5in 2.0in 2.5in 3.0in 3.5in 4.0in 4.5in 5.0in 5.5in 6.0in 6.5in;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;">“So
what <span style="mso-bidi-font-style: italic;">do</span> you do on the Central
Coast?”</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="tab-stops: 0in .5in 1.0in 1.5in 2.0in 2.5in 3.0in 3.5in 4.0in 4.5in 5.0in 5.5in 6.0in 6.5in;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;">“CEO
for a medium-size manufacturing firm.” He echoed her earlier phrasing.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="tab-stops: 0in .5in 1.0in 1.5in 2.0in 2.5in 3.0in 3.5in 4.0in 4.5in 5.0in 5.5in 6.0in 6.5in;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;">She
sipped her drink, looking at him over the rim. He wasn’t much of a talker.
Surprising. Most men she dealt with loved talking about themselves. “Hmmm, a
CEO.” She gave his expensively tailored suit a long look, then glanced
pointedly at the hotel’s plush furnishings. “Your company must be doing <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">very</i> well.”</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="tab-stops: 0in .5in 1.0in 1.5in 2.0in 2.5in 3.0in 3.5in 4.0in 4.5in 5.0in 5.5in 6.0in 6.5in;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;">“We are.”
Not a trace of condescension or conceit, just confidence. He leaned forward, continuing
with the getting-to-know-you small talk, but his gaze traveled her face as if
there was so much more between the lines. “So, Ms. Controller, what do <span style="mso-bidi-font-style: italic;">you<i> </i></span>want for the rest of your
life?”</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="tab-stops: 0in .5in 1.0in 1.5in 2.0in 2.5in 3.0in 3.5in 4.0in 4.5in 5.0in 5.5in 6.0in 6.5in;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;">Not an
ordinary question but she gave the easiest answer. “I want to be a CFO.” Before
she turned forty. Only two short years away.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpLast" style="tab-stops: 0in .5in 1.0in 1.5in 2.0in 2.5in 3.0in 3.5in 4.0in 4.5in 5.0in 5.5in 6.0in 6.5in;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;">“At the
same company you work for?”</span></div>
<div class="MsoBodyText" style="tab-stops: 0in .5in 1.0in 1.5in 2.0in 2.5in 3.0in 3.5in 4.0in 4.5in 5.0in 5.5in 6.0in 6.5in;">
<span style="color: windowtext; font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; font-weight: normal;">“Hopefully. But not necessarily. I’m willing to move to get
what I want. What about you?”</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpFirst" style="tab-stops: 0in .5in 1.0in 1.5in 2.0in 2.5in 3.0in 3.5in 4.0in 4.5in 5.0in 5.5in 6.0in 6.5in;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;">“Chairman
of the Board.”</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="tab-stops: 0in .5in 1.0in 1.5in 2.0in 2.5in 3.0in 3.5in 4.0in 4.5in 5.0in 5.5in 6.0in 6.5in;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;">“I like
a man who knows what he wants.”</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="tab-stops: 0in .5in 1.0in 1.5in 2.0in 2.5in 3.0in 3.5in 4.0in 4.5in 5.0in 5.5in 6.0in 6.5in;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;">“And I
like a woman who knows what <span style="mso-bidi-font-style: italic;">she</span>
wants.” A wealth of innuendo smoldered in his hot eyes and simmered in his
smile.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="tab-stops: 0in .5in 1.0in 1.5in 2.0in 2.5in 3.0in 3.5in 4.0in 4.5in 5.0in 5.5in 6.0in 6.5in;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;">She’d
never get a better opening. A swarm butterflies flew around in her stomach, but
under the short skirt, she was wet. Her body knew exactly what she craved.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="tab-stops: 0in .5in 1.0in 1.5in 2.0in 2.5in 3.0in 3.5in 4.0in 4.5in 5.0in 5.5in 6.0in 6.5in;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;">And Lucas
watched her, as if he could read her mind, as if she’d become the prey and he was
the predator.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="tab-stops: 0in .5in 1.0in 1.5in 2.0in 2.5in 3.0in 3.5in 4.0in 4.5in 5.0in 5.5in 6.0in 6.5in;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;">She’d
shaved, lathered, scented, and lotioned. And she had the necessary condoms in
her purse. She’d planned, she’d searched, she was ready. Lucas Falconer was so
tempting. <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">Do it, say it, ask him.</i></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="tab-stops: 0in .5in 1.0in 1.5in 2.0in 2.5in 3.0in 3.5in 4.0in 4.5in 5.0in 5.5in 6.0in 6.5in;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;">Her
inner voice was a pushy little bugger. But she wasn’t quite there yet, just a
little more talk. A little more… something.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="tab-stops: 0in .5in 1.0in 1.5in 2.0in 2.5in 3.0in 3.5in 4.0in 4.5in 5.0in 5.5in 6.0in 6.5in;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;">“My
career is truly what I want. But…” She let the sentence hang there, something
he could tag onto.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="tab-stops: 0in .5in 1.0in 1.5in 2.0in 2.5in 3.0in 3.5in 4.0in 4.5in 5.0in 5.5in 6.0in 6.5in;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;">“What
about family?”</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="tab-stops: 0in .5in 1.0in 1.5in 2.0in 2.5in 3.0in 3.5in 4.0in 4.5in 5.0in 5.5in 6.0in 6.5in;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;">That
wasn’t what she’d been expecting. “All my family’s dead.” She ran her finger
around the rim of her glass as she wrapped her tongue around the lie. The lie
she always told when anyone asked.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="tab-stops: 0in .5in 1.0in 1.5in 2.0in 2.5in 3.0in 3.5in 4.0in 4.5in 5.0in 5.5in 6.0in 6.5in;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;">He
stared at her with unreadable eyes, then dropped his gaze to her ring finger.
“I’m sorry.”</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpLast" style="tab-stops: 0in .5in 1.0in 1.5in 2.0in 2.5in 3.0in 3.5in 4.0in 4.5in 5.0in 5.5in 6.0in 6.5in;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;">She answered
the unspoken question in that pointed look. “I’ve never been married either. I
know women are supposed to handle it all in the new millennium. But I’m pretty
sure I can’t do justice to both motherhood and a career.”</span></div>
<div class="MsoBodyText" style="tab-stops: 0in .5in 1.0in 1.5in 2.0in 2.5in 3.0in 3.5in 4.0in 4.5in 5.0in 5.5in 6.0in 6.5in;">
<span style="color: windowtext; font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; font-weight: normal;">“So I take it you’re opting for the career.” His tone told
her nothing, not whether he thought she was admirable or she was selfish or she
was simply incompetent.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpFirst" style="tab-stops: 0in .5in 1.0in 1.5in 2.0in 2.5in 3.0in 3.5in 4.0in 4.5in 5.0in 5.5in 6.0in 6.5in;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;">“My
career’s important.” She wasn’t ashamed of that. But she didn’t like that she
had to keep explaining. Not that he was the one making her defensive.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="tab-stops: 0in .5in 1.0in 1.5in 2.0in 2.5in 3.0in 3.5in 4.0in 4.5in 5.0in 5.5in 6.0in 6.5in;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;">“CFO’s
a lofty goal.” His gaze traced every feature of her face. Again. And heat rose to
her cheeks. She couldn’t read this man.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="tab-stops: 0in .5in 1.0in 1.5in 2.0in 2.5in 3.0in 3.5in 4.0in 4.5in 5.0in 5.5in 6.0in 6.5in;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;">Maybe
it was better if she didn’t.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="tab-stops: 0in .5in 1.0in 1.5in 2.0in 2.5in 3.0in 3.5in 4.0in 4.5in 5.0in 5.5in 6.0in 6.5in;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;">“So, no
marriage. How about a steady boyfriend?”</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="tab-stops: 0in .5in 1.0in 1.5in 2.0in 2.5in 3.0in 3.5in 4.0in 4.5in 5.0in 5.5in 6.0in 6.5in;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;">She
shook her head. “Men who don’t have marriage on their minds prefer variety.”</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="tab-stops: 0in .5in 1.0in 1.5in 2.0in 2.5in 3.0in 3.5in 4.0in 4.5in 5.0in 5.5in 6.0in 6.5in;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;">“Are
you sure about that?”</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="tab-stops: 0in .5in 1.0in 1.5in 2.0in 2.5in 3.0in 3.5in 4.0in 4.5in 5.0in 5.5in 6.0in 6.5in;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;">“You
tell me.” She went for bold, tapping his bare ring finger. “Do you like
variety?”</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="tab-stops: 0in .5in 1.0in 1.5in 2.0in 2.5in 3.0in 3.5in 4.0in 4.5in 5.0in 5.5in 6.0in 6.5in;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;">“Yes. But
that doesn’t mean always having a different woman. Variety can be in the act
itself, the creativity a woman and a man bring to it.”</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="tab-stops: 0in .5in 1.0in 1.5in 2.0in 2.5in 3.0in 3.5in 4.0in 4.5in 5.0in 5.5in 6.0in 6.5in;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;">He lifted
his glass to his lips. Drank.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="tab-stops: 0in .5in 1.0in 1.5in 2.0in 2.5in 3.0in 3.5in 4.0in 4.5in 5.0in 5.5in 6.0in 6.5in;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;">All she
could think about were the very creative things he could do with that sexy mouth.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="tab-stops: 0in .5in 1.0in 1.5in 2.0in 2.5in 3.0in 3.5in 4.0in 4.5in 5.0in 5.5in 6.0in 6.5in;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;">It was
the worst thing to ask. Or the best. “How creative?”</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="tab-stops: 0in .5in 1.0in 1.5in 2.0in 2.5in 3.0in 3.5in 4.0in 4.5in 5.0in 5.5in 6.0in 6.5in;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;">“As
flexible as you want to get.”</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="tab-stops: 0in .5in 1.0in 1.5in 2.0in 2.5in 3.0in 3.5in 4.0in 4.5in 5.0in 5.5in 6.0in 6.5in;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;">“Like
acrobatics?” Pause. “Or BDSM. There’s a world of difference.”</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="tab-stops: 0in .5in 1.0in 1.5in 2.0in 2.5in 3.0in 3.5in 4.0in 4.5in 5.0in 5.5in 6.0in 6.5in;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;">His
soft chuckle made her sizzle. “Nothing that hurts. Only things that feel good.”</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="tab-stops: 0in .5in 1.0in 1.5in 2.0in 2.5in 3.0in 3.5in 4.0in 4.5in 5.0in 5.5in 6.0in 6.5in;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;">She
couldn’t keep her mouth shut. “How good?”</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="tab-stops: 0in .5in 1.0in 1.5in 2.0in 2.5in 3.0in 3.5in 4.0in 4.5in 5.0in 5.5in 6.0in 6.5in;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;">“So
good that someone has to scream.”</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="tab-stops: 0in .5in 1.0in 1.5in 2.0in 2.5in 3.0in 3.5in 4.0in 4.5in 5.0in 5.5in 6.0in 6.5in;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;">How had
they gotten into this conversation? Oh yeah, she’d started it, going for bold,
talking about variety, egging him on. Or he’d started it when he mentioned
creativity. His hands, her moans, his mouth, her screams. She could feel it,
taste it, wanted it, needed it.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="tab-stops: 0in .5in 1.0in 1.5in 2.0in 2.5in 3.0in 3.5in 4.0in 4.5in 5.0in 5.5in 6.0in 6.5in;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;">If she
didn’t ask him to bed soon, she’d melt right here just listening to his voice.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="tab-stops: 0in .5in 1.0in 1.5in 2.0in 2.5in 3.0in 3.5in 4.0in 4.5in 5.0in 5.5in 6.0in 6.5in;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;">He waited.
Had he said something she hadn’t heard? She was drowning in her own thoughts
and his coffee-colored eyes. His glass sat on the table, and the heat of his
hand jumped across the three inches that separated their fingers.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="tab-stops: 0in .5in 1.0in 1.5in 2.0in 2.5in 3.0in 3.5in 4.0in 4.5in 5.0in 5.5in 6.0in 6.5in;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;">Holding
his gaze, as hard as that was, she said, “Why don’t we test out our mutual
creativity?”</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="tab-stops: 0in .5in 1.0in 1.5in 2.0in 2.5in 3.0in 3.5in 4.0in 4.5in 5.0in 5.5in 6.0in 6.5in;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;">The
words fell into the deepest, darkest silence, the kind where all the voices
fade, the laughter mutes—the moment between life and death, love and hate, yes
and no.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="tab-stops: 0in .5in 1.0in 1.5in 2.0in 2.5in 3.0in 3.5in 4.0in 4.5in 5.0in 5.5in 6.0in 6.5in;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;">He felt
it, too, and drew the long seconds out. Until finally he said, “I thought you’d
never ask.”</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="tab-stops: 0in .5in 1.0in 1.5in 2.0in 2.5in 3.0in 3.5in 4.0in 4.5in 5.0in 5.5in 6.0in 6.5in;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;">God.
She’d done it. She was crazy. She was euphoric.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpLast" style="tab-stops: 0in .5in 1.0in 1.5in 2.0in 2.5in 3.0in 3.5in 4.0in 4.5in 5.0in 5.5in 6.0in 6.5in;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;">She was
committed.</span></div>

He was
always the guy with the perfect family, with all the great friends, with all
the love he could ask for, not to mention the billions. So what would his story
look like? Here's a hint!</div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px;">
<span style="color: black; font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; margin: 0px;">Daniel Spencer is proud of the billion-dollar business he’s built,
but there are few things he enjoys more than creating something with his bare
hands. Lake Tahoe has everything he’s looking for—the lakefront cabin he’s
building for family and friends to enjoy, crystal clear water and lush green
mountains. Everything except the perfect woman to share it with. Until Tasha
Summerfield literally falls into his arms.</span></div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px;">
<span style="color: black; font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; margin: 0px;">After learning that her family has lied to her for pretty much her
entire life, Tasha flees San Francisco for the mountains. As she tries to bury
her heartache by hammering her dilapidated cabin back together, the last thing
she expects is to fall for a sexy billionaire. But when a storm blows in and
she desperately needs help, there is Daniel, waiting with open arms.</span></div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px;">
<span style="color: black; font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; margin: 0px;">Tasha believes Daniel deserves a woman from a perfect, loving,
tight-knit family like his. Yet how can she possibly resist a man this sweet
and generous…who looks positively sinful in his tool belt? With every delicious
taste of him, Tasha finds it harder to quell the hopes and dreams she thought
were crushed forever. But when it turns out that Daniel’s family isn’t picture
perfect after all, will the truth set them both free? Or will it destroy any
chance they ever had?</span></div>

One</span></div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px;">
The lake was brilliantly blue and
perfectly calm as Daniel Spencer stood on the back deck of his Tahoe getaway.
The air held the crisp scent of the mountains, and he breathed deeply to take
in the sweetness. He’d chosen Fallen Leaf Lake on which to build his waterfront
cabin because of this spectacular view, the snow-capped mountains in the
distance, the scent of wildflowers just starting to bloom, and the peace of it
all, away from the rush and noise of the city.</div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px;">
Except for the insistent <span style="margin: 0px;"><i><span style="font-family: Times;">thwack</span></i></span> of a
staple gun spoiling the perfect quiet.</div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px;">
Since his last visit over three months ago, someone must
have moved into the run-down shack up the hill—the blue tarps on the roof were
new, and a small, older-model truck had replaced the rusted hulk on the gravel
drive. He’d always gotten along well with his neighbors, but this morning he
couldn’t push away his resentment at the intrusion.</div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px;">
His family had been right; he definitely needed a few days
away to recharge. It had been way too long since he’d had a vacation, or come
up to work on the cabin. Weekends had been out of the question as well, given
that they had become a revolving door of birthday parties and sports events and
barbecues with his friends and their wives or girlfriends and children.</div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px;">
The other four Mavericks—Will, Sebastian, Matt, and Evan—had
each found the woman of their dreams. A partner they could share everything
with. Love and companionship and intimacy. Over the past few months, Daniel had
begun to realize that being the only unattached Maverick separated him from the
pack.</div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px;">
He was now the odd man out.</div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px;">
Will’s wedding had jump-started Daniel’s restlessness—and
Evan and Paige’s recent housewarming party had only deepened the growing hole
inside him. At first, he’d sought to plug it with work, making sure he had
little time for anything else—especially thinking too much. But he had to admit
he’d become a bear to work for these past few months, asking for too much,
pushing everyone else as hard as he pushed himself.</div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px;">
And all the while, he couldn’t help asking himself, what was
it all for? He’d triumphed over his dirt-poor childhood to build Top Notch DIY
into the world’s leading home-improvement franchise, with outlets around the
globe. His face filled millions of screens on a homebuilding TV show that aired
weekly. He had more money than he could possibly spend. But something was
missing.</div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px;">
Some<span style="margin: 0px;"><i><span style="font-family: Times;">one</span></i></span> was missing.</div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px;">
Someone to share it all with.</div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px;">
At thirty-six, Daniel had dated plenty of women, but he’d
never found the one woman with whom he could share the perfect love and
relationship he’d seen in his parents. It had never felt sappy to say that he
wanted the kind of love his mom and dad had found. After all, who wouldn’t want
a relationship that good, that free of bumps and hurdles—two people who had
always been there for each other, no matter what?</div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px;">
His mother, Susan Spencer, set the bar. As an adult, Daniel
had a clear-eyed view of her strength and wisdom, qualities he hadn’t always
appreciated as a punk kid narrowly skirting the line between right and wrong.
Back then, he hadn’t wanted his father’s no-nonsense advice either. But Daniel
knew better now. His parents were his rocks, his guides. They never faltered,
never screwed up, even though they had struggled to make ends meet for most of
their lives.</div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px;">
No matter how difficult life had been, they’d never lost
sight of the important things: love, family, loyalty. In that grimy Chicago
neighborhood, which was the only place they could afford, Bob and Susan Spencer
had taken in his friends—all the Mavericks—and though each of the boys had gone
through his own struggles, none of them had ever been left wanting for love or
attention.</div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px;">
Daniel had been thinking of his family when he’d drawn the
plans for this cabin. It wasn’t meant to be a bachelor pad—he envisioned
playing games outside in the summer sun with his wife and kids and making
s’mores in the outdoor fire pit beneath a full moon.</div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px;">
At present, the exterior was complete except for the
trimmings. He had electricity as well as plumbing, one working bathroom, and a
carefully handcrafted river-rock fireplace. The refrigerator, countertop
microwave and coffee machine were the only working appliances in the kitchen,
but he did all the real cooking on the barbecue anyway. He’d brought in a big
bed for his master suite so he had somewhere decent to sleep, but though the
log walls were dried in, there were holes where the interior door frames should
be and bare, unfinished planks for floors. For all his dreams, the house wasn’t
much more than a shell.</div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px;">
Just like his life.</div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px;">
He shook his head, cursing himself for falling into a mental
hole again. This week away from work was supposed to renew him. He’d risen
hours before dawn in order to miss the commuter traffic on the drive up from
San Francisco. On the road, he’d been eager to continue the work. Now that he
was here, it was time to focus on the fact that he was not only the luckiest
guy in the world to have a thriving business and bank account, along with all
his close friends, but also that nothing he’d faced would ever compare to his

<div class="CSP-ChapterBodyText" style="text-indent: 0in;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt;">Have I told you all how I got the
title of <b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;"><i><a href="http://www.jenniferskully.com/anywayshewantsit.html">Any Way She Wants It</a></i></b>,
West Coast, Book 6? First of all, let me say how much I love that old Journey
song Any Way You Want It. So I was listening to that album, and it was so
perfect for Tricia. It made me imagine exactly how she viewed sex, and I just
knew she was a woman who would absolutely ask for it any way she wanted it. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://4.bp.blogspot.com/-0mhVcgbvzTw/WrFlU7yAvkI/AAAAAAAABac/rUn2GfoqlmwY4ErAx55g8Hm_AbyO-J3DACLcBGAs/s1600/AnyWaySheWantsIt4_850.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1275" data-original-width="850" height="320" src="https://4.bp.blogspot.com/-0mhVcgbvzTw/WrFlU7yAvkI/AAAAAAAABac/rUn2GfoqlmwY4ErAx55g8Hm_AbyO-J3DACLcBGAs/s320/AnyWaySheWantsIt4_850.jpg" width="213" /></a></div>
<div class="CSP-ChapterBodyText" style="text-indent: 0in;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt;">But where did the idea for Tricia
and David’s story come from? Of course you remember that David and Tricia have
been dancing around each other since she started working at West Coast. But
where did that whole dance start in my mind. Well, gosh, it’s been there for
almost ever. So let me tell you…</span></div>
<div class="CSP-ChapterBodyText" style="text-indent: 0in;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt;">Did you have a crush on an older
man when you were 16? Or an older woman if you're a guy? Of course you did.
It's sort of universal. I had a crush on my best friend's brother. He was ten
years older than us. And I remember the actual day of my 16th birthday when he
kissed my cheek and wished me Happy Birthday. I swooned. I was in love. I made
up all sorts of fantasies about him waiting for me until I grew up. Of course
we moved away that summer and I never saw him again. But it was a lovely
fantasy! And that's what writers do. They take a small, insignificant memory or
a newspaper article they read or a slice out of a dream and explode it into an
entire story. Or they listen to a song and grab the title because it makes them
actually see,<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>hear, and feel the
characters they’re writing about.</span></div>
<div class="CSP-ChapterBodyText" style="text-indent: 0in;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt;">So I’ve got a blurb and an
excerpt coming up for you, but first I have to tell you about what you can win!

<b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;"><i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;">Blurb</span></i></b></div>
<div align="center" class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;">
He was engaged to be
married.</div>
<div align="center" class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;">
She was his sister’s
best friend and his dirty little secret.</div>
<div align="center" class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;">
Twenty years later,
it’s all about to explode.</div>
<div align="center" class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;">
David Farris has been
a widower for almost a year. He should have been able to handle Tricia Connelly
walking back into his life. After all, it’s been over twenty years. But now
that she’s here, she’s the embodiment of his greatest desire…and his worst guilt.
Keeping everything between them strictly business is the only way to preserve
his sanity.</div>
<div align="center" class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;">
Tricia wants nothing
more than to make David totally crazy with need for her. When she realizes they’ll
be working side-by-side, day in and day out, her heart clamors for this second
chance to make the one man she’s always wanted fall for her. But David can’t
let go of the past.</div>
<div align="center" class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;">
Her only choice is to
seduce him with steamy kisses and delicious caresses to show him how perfect
they could be for each other.</div>
<div align="center" class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;">
Can David forgive his
past sins? Or will he sacrifice their future?</div>
<div align="center" class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;">

<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;">Chapter
One</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif";">She sat
three rows in front of him, on the groom’s side of the garden wedding. Her
dress was a satiny blue that draped her curves, no ruffles or frills, just
spaghetti straps that left her shoulders bared to the late September sun and
his gaze. Her short blond hair kissed the nape of her neck, silky and
touchable.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif";">Not that
David Farris would ever think of touching Tricia Connelly.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<i><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif";">Liar.</span></i><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif";"></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif";">He
thought about her when his guard was down. Jesus, he dreamed of her when his
subconscious mind took over in the middle of the night. Hot, sexy, sweaty
dreams he couldn’t quite banish when the alarm blared to wake him.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif";">So it
was safer to say that he would never <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">act</i>
on any of his thoughts. Tricia Connelly was off limits. For so many reasons,
but mostly because of their mutual past that he couldn’t forget and couldn’t
forgive himself for. Because of his dead wife, as if her cancer was a
manifestation of his guilt as well as his penance for all the wrong things he’d
done.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif";">God,
yes, there were too many reasons, but the opening bars of the wedding march
allowed him to shove them all from his mind. Everything except the sight of
her.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif";">Holt
Montgomery’s back garden had been transformed into a chapel, with an arbor
trimmed in flowers and ivy on a raised dais which would be converted to a
dancefloor once the ceremony was over. White folding chairs had been set out
for the guests with a center aisle the bride would walk down, all in a very
traditional setting. Though Ruby Williams was anything but traditional.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif";">The
guest list wasn’t large, considering the fact that Holt was a Silicon Valley
CEO with a huge contact base. Mentally cataloguing the seats, there was room
for only fifty, and they were occupied mostly by employees from West Coast
Manufacturing, including the executive team, a smattering of senior management,
and the chairman of the board. Ruby and Holt had probably kept the number to a
minimum in order to have the wedding in Holt’s backyard.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif";">He would
have expected more show from Ruby, five hundred attendees, a rented hotel
ballroom, ice statues, and fountains of bubbling champagne.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif";">But Ruby
walked down the aisle with no escort and no entourage, wearing a magnificent
cream confection David knew Cassandra Montgomery, Holt’s daughter, had
designed. The halter-style dress tied at Ruby’s nape and dipped deep into her
cleavage. The beaded bodice trimmed in lace ended in an arrow over her stomach,
while the satin hugged her hips, finally flaring halfway down her thighs. Her
dark hair pulled up in an elegant knot, she’d allowed a smattering of curls to
artfully fall free.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif";">No
matter what David thought of her personally, he had to admit Ruby was stunning.
Her face was radiant with a smile that could only be called happiness, though
that had never been a word he’d used to describe Ruby. Yet as she walked down
the aisle alone, as if she were the one giving herself away, she had eyes only
for her soon-to-be husband. And her gaze was literally alight. Holt was a fine
figure, CEO all the way, as commanding up on the dais in his formal tuxedo as
he was in the boardroom. Ruby Williams had never been a woman that inspired the
word <i>love</i>—she was too aggressive, too calculating, too predatory—yet
love radiated from the look Holt graced her with. Somehow they’d found a way,
the most unlikely couple.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif";">Just as
Ruby was without a maid of honor, Holt had no best man. David could only
presume it was because the logical choice, Clay Blackwell, had lived with Ruby
before taking up with Holt. Talk about complications. West Coast Manufacturing
had turned out to a hotbed of sexcapades. Ruby and Clay, then Clay and Jessica
Murphy, who’d become Jessica Blackwell only last month, then Holt and Ruby.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif";">Yes, the
Blackwells had been invited to the wedding. Though they were seated in the
second row, Ruby glided past them without a glance, as if she didn’t care, as
if marrying Holt made up for all that had gone before. When Ruby was a step
ahead, Clay raised Jessica’s hand, bending slightly to kiss her knuckles. It
could have been reassurance, yet the way Jessica smiled in return, her face and
her blond hair as bright as a beam of sunlight, she had all the assurance she
could ever desire.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif";">The
music hushed as Holt took Ruby’s hand, and he helped her onto the dais amid
afternoon birdsong. For endless seconds, he looked down into her face, his gaze
speaking to her. The moment was almost too intimate to watch. It kindled
vestiges of David’s own wedding day, his fears, his duty, the love he’d told
himself he felt for his bride, the other feelings he’d denied. He’d been
denying them ever since.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif";">His eyes
fell on Tricia. Always back to Tricia. She was his past, she was his guilt.
He’d never thought to have her in his present, and he could imagine no future
that included her.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif";">Except
in his dreams.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif";">A
minister in traditional robes began the vows—David had no idea where Ruby had
found him since he didn’t believe she’d ever stepped inside a church.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif";">There
were no embellishments, no personally written vows that seemed to be the rage
these days. Yet somehow, with her hands clasped in Holt’s, Ruby’s declaration,
murmured in her husky, sexy tone, was touching. “I take you as my wedded
husband, to have and to hold from this day on, for better for worse, for richer
for poorer, in sickness and in health, to love, cherish, and obey, till death
do us part.”</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif";">David
had expected her to remove the word <i>obey</i>, yet Ruby said the word with
more force than all the others, giving it weight and meaning.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif";">With his
vows, Holt added his own stress on “Till death do us part,” as if it were a
message that this marriage would be different. Especially since his ex-wife and
her husband sat next to Holt’s daughter in the front row. Cassandra turned
slightly, whispering into Ward Restin’s ear, then leaning her head on his
shoulder. Ward was the company’s VP of Research, and Cassandra had been living
with him almost since she’d moved up from L.A. five months ago to open her own
fashion boutique. She was to have a spread in the Sunday social section of the
newspaper, featuring Ruby in her magnificent dress. There might be only fifty
guests today, but Ruby would have her limelight tomorrow, and so would
Cassandra.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif";">Short
and sweet, the minister closed in on the end. “I pronounce you husband and
wife.” He beamed widely, his smile another wrinkle in an already wizened face.
“You may now kiss the bride.”</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif";">Ruby
wore no veil, and Holt placed her hands on his chest then cupped her face with
such tenderness it opened a wound in David’s chest, though God only knew why.
Ruby blossomed for her new husband like a night-blooming flower, and that first
kiss was both gentle and carnal, tender yet deep, as much an exchange of vows
as their words had been.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif";">God help
him, his gaze came to rest on Tricia once more, his heart tearing right down
the center.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif";">That
first kiss. She’d been so young. He remembered her tears, remembered how they’d
slain him.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<i><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif";">Why
doesn’t anyone want to kiss me? What’s wrong with me, David?</span></i><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif";"></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif";">She’d
been sweet sixteen, and the boys she knew were too young to see the beauty she
would become. But he was a man, ten years older, and she was his little
sister’s best friend. He’d understood what the boys his sister knew never
could, that Tricia was on the cusp of blooming into something extraordinary.
He’d wanted only to prove to her that she was gorgeous no matter what the boys
said. He’d wanted only to dry her tears and reassure her. Words could never
have done it, only actions. So he’d kissed her.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif";">And
changed both their lives.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif";">The
depth of desire he’d felt floored him. That night destroyed him. It haunted his
marriage. It consumed all his feelings for his wife. It burned him up with
unquenchable guilt and irresistible desire. He hated himself for taking
advantage of Tricia, hurting her, and yet it had been his pivotal moment,
affecting everything that came after, even his dreams.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif";">Because
Tricia had lived in his nocturnal fancies, where she’d grown into the
beautiful, stunning woman he’d known she would eventually become.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif";">Until a
few months ago, when she’d walked out of his dreams and back into his life,
fulfilling his prophecies for her.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif";">He
shuddered, a slight movement of his shoulders as if he could shake off all the
memories.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif";">His
fantasies had to end now, especially with Tricia so close and the endless hours
of budgeting that loomed ahead. In the past, he’d spent the equivalent of days
with Greg Stevens working on yearly forecasting. Tricia had taken over Greg’s
position as Finance Manager when Greg was promoted to Controller.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif";">David
would never survive the year-end budget process unless he got himself under
control.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif";">He came
out of his fog to find Holt and Ruby had descended from their dais. Instead of
a procession back down the aisle and a receiving line, they greeted all their
guests in a slow walk, stopping at each row.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif";">Cassandra
hugged her father, holding on tight for one long moment. They’d never been
demonstrative, and in fact she called him Holt rather than Dad, yet there was a
special bond in that hug. She’d gotten her red hair from her mother and her
gorgeous features from her father, as well as his commanding aura. Ward had his
work cut out with Cassandra if he wanted to wear the pants.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif";">Then
Holt shook Ward’s hand and bussed his ex-wife’s cheek while Cassandra gave Ruby
a restrained hug. She might have designed the wedding dress but the two women
weren’t suddenly BFFs. Unconventional, Cassandra wore a flame-red dress that
absorbed the color of her hair rather than clashed with it. In any other
circumstances, these two women would be rivals. Maybe they would be tomorrow.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif";">When
they turned to the other side of the aisle, David became aware of the silence
as every breath was suddenly held.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif";">“Cat
fight,” Spence Benedict muttered in his ear.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif";">David
hadn’t been aware of Spence’s arrival, let alone that Spence sat right behind
him. A guilty flush spread up David’s neck. He’d been watching Tricia too
intently, and he wondered how much Spence had picked up on.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif";">Instead
of acknowledging that, he gave his own low murmur back. “They’ll be on their
best behavior.”</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif";">That’s
exactly what Ruby and Jessica did, smiling politely at each other, Jessica
saying something, probably congratulations, Ruby thanking her, while the male
parties exchanged handshakes and backslaps.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif";">“Jesus,
I think he’s going to hug her.” Spence’s laughter was cut off at a snort when
Zoe elbowed him. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif";">“Shh,”
she hushed him, though he’d spoken softly enough that no one but she and David
had heard.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif";">The hug
didn’t happen. Instead Clay kissed Ruby’s cheek, as chaste as a father or a
brother.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif";">With the
moment over, the chatter started again as Holt and Ruby moved on down the
aisle, receiving handshakes, hugs, and congratulations.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif";">“You
look marvelous,” David told Zoe.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif";">“Thank
you.” She was a pretty woman with long dark hair, and she’d made Spence happy.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif";">Spencer
Benedict had always been good for a laugh, always found the joke in everything,
and yet he’d never seemed quite as…what was the word? <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">Complete</i>? Yes, that was it. Zoe completed Spence. If David didn’t
miss the mark, he’d say Zoe would soon be making them a complete family, too.
There was the slightest bump beneath the summer dress she wore. The problem,
David knew, was that Zoe’s divorce wasn’t yet final.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif";">“Okay,
come on.” Spence took Zoe’s hand in his. “I gotta give Ward some crap and see
when he’s going to follow in Holt’s footsteps and marry that girl.” He pulled
her to the far end of the aisle, obviously skipping the congratulations for
now.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif";">“Don’t
hold your breath,” David muttered, though they were now out of earshot. He
didn’t believe Cassandra Montgomery was the marrying kind. Then again, he had
to admit she seemed to adore Ward.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif";">Everyone
else was merging toward the center aisle to await Holt and Ruby’s greeting,
while the staff began at the sides, moving chairs and bringing out the cocktail
tables for mingling, beginning the garden’s transformation from chapel to
reception. They set aside the trellis and unlocked hinges on the dais that
allowed them to extend it to make a larger dancefloor.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif";">David
shifted back to the front, judging the newly married couple’s progress down the
aisle, gauging how long before he could make his escape.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif";">And
turned right into Tricia’s sky-blue gaze. Her eyes were focused, as if she’d
seen every thought he’d had about her, every wet dream painted on his face like
prison stripes.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif";">The
guests, the minister, the bride and groom, they all seemed to fade. Except her.
His breath constricted in his chest, his heart lodged somewhere in his throat,
and his stomach plummeted to the ground he stood on, shaking it beneath his
feet.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif";">Over the
last few months, since she’d started working at West Coast, Tricia had tried to
talk to him. Christ, she’d actually cornered him a couple of times. How he’d
shut her down, he couldn’t even recall. He’d probably run like a coward or a
fool.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif";">Her gaze
was so direct, so straight, lancing him.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif";">Yes, he
was a coward. Eventually, they would need to have the confrontation. But not
today.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif";">Holt
saved him, reaching Tricia’s row. She shook hands, no hugs, no pecks on the
cheek.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif";">To the
left of David’s row, the wait staff carefully placed the wedding cake on a side
table. A three-tiered confection, it was topped with a Day of the Dead bride
and groom. Despite the emotions roiling inside him, he chuckled. It was so
un-Ruby. But then he had to wonder about all the things he didn’t know about
her. Didn’t know about Holt. Or about their relationship.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif";">Every
relationship wore a different face behind closed doors. Every relationship had
a surface hiding its depths. There was what you wanted people to see versus the
actual truth.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif";">It was
his turn now and Holt grabbed his hand in a hardy shake.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif";">“Congratulations,”
David said. His smile felt forced. It had been a mistake coming. The wedding
was a reminder of his dead wife, his dead marriage, and Tricia was the
embodiment of his guilt, of all his mistakes, of the harm he’d caused. And a
token of the things he desired but could never have.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif";">He shook
off all the memories. He was here. He had to act. He took Ruby’s hand in both
of his. “You make a stunning picture, Ruby. I wish you all the best.”</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif";">She
smiled without artifice, even though Ruby always had artifice. “Thank you,
David.” She poked him in the chest. “Now, I want you to get out there and dance
once the music starts. Be the life of our party.” She elbowed Holt fondly. “He
says he’ll only do the first dance so I’m going to need lots of partners.”</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif";">Ruby had
definitely had her share of partners.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif";">“She’s
teasing, David.” Holt wrapped a proprietary arm around her, pulling her close
and tight, staking his claim. “But we want you to enjoy yourself.”</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif";">He saw
the words between their lines. He saw the last ten months since his wife’s
death where he seemed to be living in a world of grief. And there were the
endless months before that, the diagnosis, the treatment, then when the doctors
finally destroyed all their hope. He’d been aware of the thoughtful gazes at
work, the worry, the desire to help, the inability to do so. Now they all
wanted him to move on, to get better, to be the man he’d been before the
cancer.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif";">His son
and daughter wanted it, too. They missed their mom, but they were both in
college now and starting their own lives, creating new priorities.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif";">What
none of them knew was that the genesis of his guilt came long before the
cancer, before his kids were born, before he’d married Marie.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif";">It began
that night with Tricia.</span></div>

True love binds them. Deceit
divides them. Will they choose love?</div>
<div style="margin: 0px; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="margin: 0px; text-align: justify;">
Lady Coira Easton spent her youth
traveling with her grandfather. Now well past the age men prefer when they
choose a wife, she has resigned herself to remain a maiden. But everything
changes once she arrives at Berwyck Castle. She cannot resist a dashing knight
who runs to her rescue, but would he give her a second look?</div>
<div style="margin: 0px; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="margin: 0px; text-align: justify;">
Garrick of Clan MacLaren can hold
his own with the trained Knights of Berwyck, but as the clan’s piper they would
rather he play his instruments to entertain them—or lead them into battle—than
to fight with a sword upon the lists. Only when he sees a lady across the
training field and his heart sings for the first time does he begin to wish to
be something he is not.</div>
<div style="margin: 0px; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="margin: 0px; text-align: justify;">
Will a simple misunderstanding
between them threaten what they have found in one another or will they at last let
love into their hearts?</div>
<div style="margin: 0px; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="margin: 0px; text-align: justify;">
And you must read this incredible excerpt of <a href="https://www.amazon.com/dp/B075VDCLCB?tag=jasmhayn-20"><b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;"><i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;"><span style="margin: 0px;"><span style="color: blue;">The Piper’s Lady</span></span></i></b></a>!
I love it!</div>
<div style="margin: 0px; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="margin: 0px; text-align: justify;">
<span style="margin: 0px;">Garrick once more captured the woman in his arms as they fell to
the ground in a heap. In a repeat performance, he rolled to bear the impact
’til she was captured beneath him. Hazel eyes stared at him in wonder, and his heart
lurched in his chest.</span></div>
<div style="margin: 0px; text-align: justify;">
<span style="margin: 0px;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="margin: 0px; text-align: justify;">
<span style="margin: 0px;">“Sir Garrick…” His named passed her lips in a breathy whisper.</span></div>
<div style="margin: 0px; text-align: justify;">
<span style="margin: 0px;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="margin: 0px; text-align: justify;">
<span style="margin: 0px;">“Lady Coira…” he answered, and afore common sense returned to him,
he leaned down and placed his lips upon her own.</span></div>
<div style="margin: 0px; text-align: justify;">
<span style="margin: 0px;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="margin: 0px; text-align: justify;">
<i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;"><span style="margin: 0px;">By God’s Bones, he
must be mad</span></i><span style="margin: 0px;">, he
thought even as her arms pressed their way over his shoulders and wrapped
themselves around his neck. His mouth moved over hers gently for he did not
wish to scare her. ’Twas an exploration… a first-time meeting of two souls as
their breaths exchanged with one another. He was lost ’til a low throaty moan
escaped her and brought him back to the reality of what he was doing.</span></div>
<div style="margin: 0px; text-align: justify;">
<span style="margin: 0px;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="margin: 0px; text-align: justify;">
<span style="margin: 0px;">He broke off their kiss and jumped up as though he had been
burned, which was not far from the truth. <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">Bloody
hell</i>! If Coira were in truth Morgan’s lady, the knight would skewer him
alive and see his head placed on a pike outside Berwyck’s gates for taking such
a liberty. He would not think of what Lord Dristan would do to his remains
since the lady was also under his watchful eye.</span></div>
<div style="margin: 0px; text-align: justify;">
<span style="margin: 0px;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="margin: 0px; text-align: justify;">
<span style="margin: 0px;">He began cursing and pacing back and forth ’til he realized he had
left the lady of his musing lying on the hard ground. She had propped herself
up on her elbows and was watching him intently. He came to her and held out his
hand to help her rise. Her fingers slipped into his palm, and he once more
forgot about everything else but the lady he pulled up to stand.</span></div>
<div style="margin: 0px; text-align: justify;">
<span style="margin: 0px;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="margin: 0px; text-align: justify;">
<span style="margin: 0px;">Her knees gave out, and she once more fell into his arms as they
stumbled up against the very oak that began the downfall of his life as he knew
it. Garrick reached out to steady them whilst her back was up against the solid
trunk. He clearly had no sense left in his head whilst he rested his arm above
her head and stared down at the beautiful woman who was beginning to claim his
heart.</span></div>
<div style="margin: 0px; text-align: justify;">
<span style="margin: 0px;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="margin: 0px; text-align: justify;">
<span style="margin: 0px;">“Coira…” he murmured. “’Tis a beautiful Gaelic name, but I am
surprised ye are called such for an English woman.”</span></div>
<div style="margin: 0px; text-align: justify;">
<span style="margin: 0px;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="margin: 0px; text-align: justify;">
<span style="margin: 0px;">“’Twas my mother’s doing. She told me years afore she died that
she and my father had travelled to Scotland, and she fell in love with the
country and its people. She said I was a wonderful reminder of their time
together.”</span></div>
<div style="margin: 0px; text-align: justify;">
<span style="margin: 0px;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="margin: 0px; text-align: justify;">
<span style="margin: 0px;">“Ye must miss them. I am sorry for their passing along with yer
brother’s.”</span></div>
<div style="margin: 0px; text-align: justify;">
<span style="margin: 0px;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="margin: 0px; text-align: justify;">

<span style="margin: 0px;">He reached out and ran the back of his finger along her cheek. “Ye
are not completely alone, lass,” he replied, and although he hated to say the
next words, he knew he must. “Ye have Morgan. ’Tis obvious he cares for you.”</span></div>

<div style="margin: 0px;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , "serif"; margin: 0px;">I’m
enjoying the fabulous weather down in Palm Desert, just as the rain and the
cold starts to seep into the house back home. A week of sunning, hiking, and
writing! Yes, I’m starting the next West Coast book, <b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;"><i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">Any Way She Wants It</i></b>! So
while I’m working on that, I’ve got a couple of re-releases for you! </span><span style="font-family: "times";"><a href="https://www.amazon.com/dp/B075YVVXM5?tag=jasmhayn-20"><span lang="EN" style="margin: 0px;"><span style="color: blue;"><i><b>Drop Dead Gorgeous</b></i></span></span></a><span style="margin: 0px;"><span lang="EN" style="color: blue; margin: 0px;"> </span></span></span>and<b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;"><i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;"> <a href="https://www.amazon.com/dp/B076L7G734?tag=jasmhayn-20"><span lang="EN" style="margin: 0px;"><span style="color: blue; font-family: "times";">Sheer Dynamite</span></span></a></i></b><span style="font-family: "times";"><span style="margin: 0px;"><span lang="EN" style="color: blue; margin: 0px;">.</span></span><span style="margin: 0px;"><span lang="EN" style="margin: 0px;"><span style="color: blue;"> </span><span style="color: black;">These were two of my favorite romances that I wrote
for HQN.

My mother was
horrified, thinking I’d patterned Grandma Blue after her, but no, my mother is
much to proper to ever say any of the things that come out of Grandma Blue’s
mouth! So, I’m going to give you excerpts of both these books today! First up,
Madison and T. Larry in </span></span></span><b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;"><i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;"><a href="https://www.amazon.com/dp/B075YVVXM5?tag=jasmhayn-20"><span lang="EN" style="margin: 0px;">Drop Dead Gorgeous</span></a></i></b><span style="margin: 0px;"><span lang="EN" style="margin: 0px;"><span style="color: black;">!</span></span></span></span></span><br />

<br />
A beautiful young woman who’s
never been in love, the boss who’s dying to be her first… and the stalker who
wants to be her last.<br />
<br />
When danger begins to stalk Madison O’Donnell, her boss, T.
Laurence Hobbs, must turn his calculating mind to protecting her. And the only
way to do that is to make sure he’s the man she falls in love with.<br />

<br />
<div style="margin: 0px; text-indent: 0.3in;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , "serif"; margin: 0px;">“When
was the last time you tried on my wedding dress?”</span></div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px; text-indent: 0.3in;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , "serif"; margin: 0px;">Madison
rolled her eyes, glad her mother, being on the other end of the phone, couldn’t
see.</span></div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px; text-indent: 0.3in;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , "serif"; margin: 0px;">“When I
get married, Ma—” Which would be never, though she avoided saying anything like
that flat out to her mother who frowned on Madison’s self-diagnosis of her
condition “—I want to pick out my own wedding dress.” Sentimentality was great,
but Madison’s mother got married right after the royal wedding when everyone
wore Princess Diana knockoffs with puffy sleeves and boatloads of material
around the neckline. Madison shuddered.</span></div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px; text-indent: 0.3in;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , "serif"; margin: 0px;">T.
Larry had closeted himself in the conference room with Jeremiah and Alta. He
had to get out of there before five. He just had to. Because she needed to know
how things went with Zach. She’d chewed the lipstick from her lips and bitten
her nails to the quick—or would have if her manicure hadn’t cost so much.</span></div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px; text-indent: 0.3in;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , "serif"; margin: 0px;">“And
don’t think I didn’t recognize that subtle reference to marriage, Ma.”</span></div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px; text-indent: 0.3in;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , "serif"; margin: 0px;">“It
wasn’t subtle at all. That nice Laurence—”</span></div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px; text-indent: 0.3in;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , "serif"; margin: 0px;">“His
name is T. Larry.”</span></div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px; text-indent: 0.3in;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , "serif"; margin: 0px;">“Then
why did he introduce himself as Laurence?”</span></div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px; text-indent: 0.3in;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , "serif"; margin: 0px;">“It
doesn’t matter, because I’m not marrying him.”</span></div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px; text-indent: 0.3in;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , "serif"; margin: 0px;">“Do you
know how much he makes a year?”</span></div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px; text-indent: 0.3in;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , "serif"; margin: 0px;">“I’m
his secretary, not his accountant. And money isn’t important.”</span></div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px; text-indent: 0.3in;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , "serif"; margin: 0px;">“Then
it’s true love.”</span></div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px; text-indent: 0.3in;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , "serif"; margin: 0px;">Madison
thought about banging her head against her desk, just like T. Larry, but tried
to think of her end of the conversation. Gauging what Bill, Anthony, and Mike
thought about it from their vantage point on the other side of her cubicle wall
seemed quite important. Of course, then she couldn’t remember exactly what she’d
said. “I told you yesterday after church—”</span></div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px; text-indent: 0.3in;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , "serif"; margin: 0px;">“Does
he attend church regularly?”</span></div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px; text-indent: 0.3in;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , "serif"; margin: 0px;">“I have
no idea.”</span></div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px; text-indent: 0.3in;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , "serif"; margin: 0px;">The
conference room door stayed tight as a vacuum-packed seal. What was going on in
there?</span></div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px; text-indent: 0.3in;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , "serif"; margin: 0px;">“James
thinks he’s marvelous.”</span></div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px; text-indent: 0.3in;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , "serif"; margin: 0px;">“James
offered him condoms,” she hissed softly, hoping no one would hear</span></div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px; text-indent: 0.3in;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , "serif"; margin: 0px;">“Madison.”</span></div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px; text-indent: 0.3in;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , "serif"; margin: 0px;">“He
did, Ma. You’ve got a big problem brewing in that household of his. I think it’s
called birth control.”</span></div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px; text-indent: 0.3in;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , "serif"; margin: 0px;">Another
shocked exclamation, then, “In my day people didn’t dream of talking about that
kind of thing.”</span></div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px; text-indent: 0.3in;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , "serif"; margin: 0px;">Her
mother’s day had come <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">after</i> the
sexual revolution, though that had somehow managed to roll over Ma and leave
her untouched. “Are we referring to sex or birth control?”</span></div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px; text-indent: 0.3in;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , "serif"; margin: 0px;">“I know
what you’re doing.”</span></div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px; text-indent: 0.3in;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , "serif"; margin: 0px;">“What?”</span></div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px; text-indent: 0.3in;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , "serif"; margin: 0px;">“You’re
trying to deflect the subject. Now about marriage and that nice Laurence—”</span></div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px; text-indent: 0.3in;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , "serif"; margin: 0px;">“I’m
not marrying T. Larry.” Taking T. Larry to her nephew’s birthday party might
not have been one of her brighter impulsive decisions. Had she said that too
loudly? The guys were being awfully quiet on the other side of the wall.</span></div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px; text-indent: 0.3in;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , "serif"; margin: 0px;">“What
does Laurence have to say about that?”</span></div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px; text-indent: 0.3in;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , "serif"; margin: 0px;">“He
doesn’t want to marry me either.” It became difficult to lower the decibel of
her voice when the level of her ire was rising. Then she sucked in a breath. Why
was she angry? She never got angry. It must be her upset over Harriet and the lawsuit.
“Ma, can we talk about this later?”</span></div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px; text-indent: 0.3in;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , "serif"; margin: 0px;">“But we
need to start planning...”</span></div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px; text-indent: 0.3in;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , "serif"; margin: 0px;">“Ma.”</span></div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px; text-indent: 0.3in;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , "serif"; margin: 0px;">“All
right. I just called to tell you your brother would be by tomorrow to fix the
disposal. So leave a key under the mat.”</span></div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px; text-indent: 0.3in;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , "serif"; margin: 0px;">“I
always leave a key under the mat.” Because one of her brothers was always
coming over to fix something for her, the big sweeties.</span></div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px; text-indent: 0.3in;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , "serif"; margin: 0px;">“And

more thing, Madison dear. I’m Episcopalian, and I’ve always believed in birth

<br />
<div style="margin: 0px; text-indent: 0.3in;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , "serif"; margin: 0px;">“We’re
going for ice cream.” Grandma Blue seemed to bounce on the front seat of Jack’s
truck like a child.</span></div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px; text-indent: 0.3in;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , "serif"; font-size: 12pt; font-weight: normal; margin: 0px;">Opal
wanted to sag against the door, but she reminded herself to resonate with
energy. Besides, Grandma Blue seemed to be having the time of her life.</span></div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px; text-indent: 0.3in;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , "serif"; margin: 0px;">And
Jack was staring with something dark, seething, and volatile in his eyes. With
Grandma Blue between them, Opal couldn’t tell whether it was anger or something
else.</span></div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px; text-indent: 0.3in;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , "serif"; margin: 0px;">“I
didn’t expect to see you here, Jack.” In her heart of hearts, she was so glad.</span></div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px; text-indent: 0.3in;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , "serif"; margin: 0px;">“Find
anything?”</span></div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px; text-indent: 0.3in;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , "serif"; margin: 0px;">He knew
she hadn’t. This was his way of turning the tables on her. She gave him a
bright smile belying the ache in her feet, her head, and her exhaust-numbed
nose. Really, how did ladies of the night do it? “Nothing yet, Jack, but thank
you so much for asking.”</span></div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px; text-indent: 0.3in;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , "serif"; margin: 0px;">“Will
you two quit fighting? I want ice cream. Dynamite’s buying.”</span></div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px; text-indent: 0.3in;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , "serif"; margin: 0px;">“We’re
not fighting.” Opal wasn’t sure what they were doing.</span></div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px; text-indent: 0.3in;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , "serif"; margin: 0px;">Opal
spared a glance for Jack, who gave an imperceptible nod, and suddenly she
wanted that ice cream more than anything else in the world. At least until she
went back out on the overpass tomorrow night, at which point, she’d pray her
vision jumper would attempt to make his jump, because she just wasn’t sure she
could make it through another night out there.</span></div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px; text-indent: 0.3in;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , "serif"; margin: 0px;">“Come
on, Grandma Blue, we’ll follow Jack over.”</span></div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px; text-indent: 0.3in;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , "serif"; margin: 0px;">Grandma
Blue pursed her lips militantly. “Dynamite doesn’t know where my favorite
ice-cream shop is. I’ve got to give him directions. Besides, I’ve never driven
in a Dodge Ram before. It's like driving as high up as a bus. Bet he can see
right down onto the laps of ladies sitting in the passenger seat and wearing
short skirts.” She turned to Jack. “Can’t you, Dynamite?”</span></div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px; text-indent: 0.3in;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , "serif"; margin: 0px;">Jack
didn’t even bat an eye at the outrageous question. Which meant he’d probably
gotten an earful of Grandma Bluisms over the last two hours and was inured to
the effect of them. He merely smiled and said, “You’d be surprised how far a
short skirt will ride up. And at what some of the ladies <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">aren’t</i> wearing.”</span></div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px; text-indent: 0.3in;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , "serif"; margin: 0px;">Was
that level look meant for her? Opal thought there was a certain sizzle there
that sent an answering shiver straight to the tips of her toes.</span></div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px; text-indent: 0.3in;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , "serif"; margin: 0px;">“Let’s
go.” Grandma Blue bounced once again in her seat.</span></div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px; text-indent: 0.3in;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , "serif"; margin: 0px;">Pulling
her keys from her bag, she wondered what Grandma Blue had up her sleeve this
time.</span></div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px; text-indent: 0.3in;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , "serif"; margin: 0px;">Opal
knew where they were going and got there first. The shop was crowded due to the
warm July evening. She pulled a ticket, then cased the counter to see what she
wanted. Barrels and barrels of every ice cream imaginable. She almost knocked
over a little kid who got in her way. His dad pulled him back with a sharp look
at Opal.</span></div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px; text-indent: 0.3in;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , "serif"; margin: 0px;">The
hair ruffled at her nape, and she smelled Jack, some woodsy cologne and warm
male skin. “What are you having?”</span></div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px; text-indent: 0.3in;">
<i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;"><span style="font-family: "times new roman" , "serif"; margin: 0px;">Your-lips-on-my-neck double scoop,
please</span></i><span style="font-family: "times new roman" , "serif"; margin: 0px;">.
She almost closed her eyes and sighed. He barely touched her, but she felt him
down the length of her back, her thighs, and everywhere in between. Gee, with
Jack so near, the ache in her feet didn’t seem quite so bad.</span></div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px; text-indent: 0.3in;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , "serif"; margin: 0px;">“Butter
pecan.”</span></div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px; text-indent: 0.3in;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , "serif"; margin: 0px;">“Like
the nuts, huh?”</span></div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px; text-indent: 0.3in;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , "serif"; margin: 0px;">She
glanced over her shoulder to find his lips dangerously close, and that was definitely
not anger in his sizzling-hot gaze.</span></div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px; text-indent: 0.3in;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , "serif"; margin: 0px;">Whatever
bug he’d had up his hind-end last night had certainly worked its way out.</span></div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px; text-indent: 0.3in;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , "serif"; margin: 0px;">She
almost missed their number. “Over here.”</span></div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px; text-indent: 0.3in;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , "serif"; margin: 0px;">Grandma
Blue ordered first. “Single scoop double fudge chocolate caramel swirl on a sugar
cone with sprinkles on top. And don’t be chintzy with the sprinkles, either.”</span></div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px; text-indent: 0.3in;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , "serif"; margin: 0px;">Opal
got her butter pecan, and Jack ordered vanilla.</span></div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px; text-indent: 0.3in;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , "serif"; margin: 0px;">“Just
plain vanilla?” Grandma Blue demanded.</span></div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px; text-indent: 0.3in;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , "serif"; margin: 0px;">“I like
vanilla.”</span></div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px; text-indent: 0.3in;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , "serif"; margin: 0px;">She
eyed him, looking like a little gnome. “Dynamite’s favorite was vanilla.”</span></div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px; text-indent: 0.3in;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , "serif"; margin: 0px;">Opal
wanted to laugh and suddenly the oppressive energy of the last two hours
lifted. She was sure Grandma Blue hadn’t a clue what flavor ice cream Dynamite
Davis preferred.</span></div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px; text-indent: 0.3in;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , "serif"; margin: 0px;">Once
outside again, the sun was going down, but the heat still rose from the
concrete, warming her legs.</span></div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px; text-indent: 0.3in;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , "serif"; margin: 0px;">Without
warning, Grandma Blue elbowed Jack in the stomach.</span></div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px; text-indent: 0.3in;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , "serif"; margin: 0px;">“Oomph.”
He almost lost his ice cream off his cone. “What?”</span></div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px; text-indent: 0.3in;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , "serif"; margin: 0px;">A look
passed between them, one Opal couldn’t assess due to the heavy tinting of
Grandma Blue’s glasses.</span></div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px; text-indent: 0.3in;">
<span style="font-family: "times new roman" , "serif"; margin: 0px;">Then
Jack was staring at <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">her</i>. At her
breasts. As if she were a scoop of ice cream he desperately wanted to lick. Honestly,
how could a woman stay angry when a man melted her with a look like that?</span></div>
<br />

<br />
<div style="margin: 0px;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; margin: 0px;">I’ve
been dying to tell everyone Brett Baker’s story. He’s our CEO in the After
Office Hours series. I fell in love with him the moment he appeared in <b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;"><i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;"><a href="http://www.jenniferskully.com/DesireActually.html"><span style="color: blue;">Desire Actually</span></a></i></b>.
And he only got sexier in <b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;"><i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;"><a href="http://www.jenniferskully.com/LoveAffairToRemember.html"><span style="color: blue;">Love Affair to Remember</span></a></i></b>.
So at last, he demanded his own story in <b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;"><i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;"><a href="http://www.jenniferskully.com/PrettyInPinkSlip.html"><span style="color: blue;">Pretty in Pink Slip</span></a></i></b>,
<i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">After Office Hours</i>, Book 3. I just
knew he’d have to have Ivy Elliot. And she had to have him.</span></div>

<br />
<div style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0in;">
She's a single mother. He's a
brilliant CEO. And she's got something he wants. Badly.</div>
<br />
<div style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0in;">
Ivy Elliot dreams of being a
stay-at-home mom, but in a career-oriented world, she's reluctant to admit it.
Besides, she's a single mother and quitting work to homeschool her daughter
just isn't an option. Asking for a raise, however, is an alternative. But when
she works up the nerve, disaster strikes. Instead of a raise, Ivy gets the
dreaded pink slip.</div>
<br />
<div style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0in;">
But Ivy is also handed the key to
making her dream come true. If she sues the company for the terrible names her
boss Rhonda called her when she asked for a raise... she might very well get
millions.</div>
<br />
<div style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0in;">
Brett Baker has worked his whole
life to be able to take a company of his own into the Fortune 500, and he's
sitting on the cusp of his dream. Until Ivy could potentially ruin all his
plans by suing the company for discrimination and harassment. He's got to use
every weapon in his arsenal to make sure she doesn't do that.</div>
<br />
<div style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0in;">
Even if it means falling in love with
her.</div>
<br />
<div style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0in;">
She gave her heart and soul to the
wrong man once. Can she ever trust enough to give it all again?</div>

Brett Baker’s smile was like something straight off a movie
screen. It always made Ivy weak in the knees. Which was why she never failed to
ask him if he had any new baby pictures of his granddaughter.</div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px;">
“Are you kidding?” Brett reached for the smart phone he kept
in his suit pocket, dazzling Ivy with that gorgeous smile.</div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px;">
He was the sexiest grandfather she’d ever seen, obviously
working out daily, his shoulders broad and his chest muscular beneath his white
dress shirt. Sure she was partial to older men, but she liked his sense of
humor, too. The entire company had celebrated his October birthday a couple of
weeks ago in the cafeteria, and he’d enjoyed the joke as much as anyone when
the fifty-two candles on the birthday cake set off the smoke alarm.</div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px;">
He leaned close over the sill of her office cubicle so he
could show Ivy the picture and look at it himself, too. His aftershave was
something subtle and tempting. Or maybe that was just his fresh morning-shower
smell.<span style="margin: 0px;"> </span>“Will you look at that cutie?” He
beamed at the picture. “She already knows how to smile.”</div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px;">
The baby looked more like she was passing wind, but Ivy
smiled and agreed right along with him. “So how old is she now?” Of course, she
knew, but she liked to keep him talking.</div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px;">
He grinned, flipping to another picture. “My darling little
Valerie was born on September twenty-third, so she’s six weeks and six days
old.” He laughed, and Ivy felt the delicious vibration of it in the pit of her
stomach. “My daughter’s a math teacher,” he explained, “and she actually adds
in the hours and minutes, too. But I’ll spare you that.”</div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px;">
“Thank you so much.”</div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px;">
She’d always thought of him as a workaholic because he was
here before she arrived at eight and his car was still in the parking lot when
she left at five. But though he was divorced, where his daughter and
granddaughter were concerned, family was first. He’d even left a conference
right in the middle when Megan went into labor. Sure he’d had two of his best
executives, Parker Hunt and Gloria King, to take over for him, but his rush to
his daughter’s side had endeared him to Ivy. Made him more than <i>just</i> a
CEO.</div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px;">
Of course, he wouldn’t even know who she was if she didn’t
sit right between Grady’s and Rhonda’s offices.</div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px;">
The light on her console went out. “Grady’s off the phone
now.”</div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px;">
“You can just wait,” Brett called out to Grady. “We’re
looking at baby pictures.”</div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px;">
She was pretty sure Grady did an eye roll. Since falling for
Ivy’s friend, Jordana Davis, Grady Masterson was a new man. He’d always been a
great boss, but now he laughed more, smiled more.</div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px;">
“All right,” Brett said to her softly. “Duty calls. And I
know you’re bored with all the pictures.”</div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px;">
“I most definitely am not.” Nothing about Brett Baker could
ever bore her. “Please, drop by any time to show me more.”</div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px;">
He laughed, turned the phone dark, and strolled into Grady’s
office.</div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px;">
Her pulse was racing. She’d actually sounded forward, even
flirty. He was the CEO. She was just a lowly admin. He’d never notice her. Even
if he did, it wasn’t like anything would <i>ever</i> happen. And she didn’t
want it either. She’d gotten herself into one dicey relationship, and once was
way more than enough. The only reason she didn’t regret it was her six-year-old
daughter Joy. She could never regret having Joy.</div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px;">
“Ivy.”</div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px;">
Rhonda Clark’s voice snapped through the open door of her
office. Speaking of bosses…</div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px;">
Ivy had more than one, since Jordana had been promoted from
Human Resources Admin to HR Manager. Now Ivy was admin for both Grady <i>and</i>
Rhonda. But working for Rhonda wasn’t supposed to take up more than half her
time.</div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px;">
It should have been easy, and Ivy had wanted the additional
duties for the extra money. But the raise she’d been hoping for hadn’t materialized.
Rhonda said she was still in training, and since she didn’t have a college
degree… Rhonda always punctuated that with a shrug of her shoulders.</div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px;">
Not finishing her degree was the biggest regret of Ivy’s
life.</div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px;">
“I want that report on my desk first thing in the morning,
Ivy.” Rhonda stood in her open office door.</div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px;">
Rhonda always wanted things <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">first thing</i> in the morning. “I’ll have it done,” Ivy told her.
Although it wasn’t past ten in the morning, she already knew she’d have to work
on the report tonight. Since she had to pick up Joy at five thirty, she’d never
been able to stay late—which Rhonda knew—and she finished a lot of work after
Joy went to bed. Of course, then, because she couldn’t prove she’d been
working, she didn’t get paid for the overtime. In Rhonda’s mind, she should be
able to finish all these projects and reports <i>before</i> she left for the
day.</div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px;">
“You’d get more work done if you did less fraternizing.”
Rhonda kept her voice low so it didn’t carry into Grady’s office.</div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px;">
“It wasn’t fraternizing. It was just baby pictures.” And it
was Brett. How was Ivy supposed to say no to the CEO?</div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px;">
Because of her daughter, Ivy didn’t date. She didn’t want
Joy to get attached only to have the guy leave. So Ivy’s few relationships were
conducted clandestinely, away from home. God, they weren’t even relationships.
They were more like… well, <i>not</i> relationships. And she hadn’t had a <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">non</i>-relationship in over six months.</div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px;">
Therefore she deserved the few minutes she got up close and
personal with Brett Baker and his baby pictures. The few heady minutes next to
his body heat, with the smell of his aftershave swirling around her. She
deserved them because she knew nothing would ever come of them.</div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px;">
“Well, I don’t expect to see any overtime on this,” Rhonda sniped
at her. “You should be able to finish it before you leave.”</div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px;">
Rhonda had no clue how long things took. She underestimated
the effort required, usually by half.</div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px;">
Maybe it was time for a new job. Except that Ivy loved
working for Grady. She’d even followed him here from his last position since
they worked so well together. Plus she’d made good friends, especially Jordana
and Gloria. She didn’t want to leave. She didn’t want to start over somewhere
else with all the upheaval and uncertainty of a new job.</div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px;">
But whatever she did, she was <i>not</i> giving up any
so-called fraternization with Brett Baker and his granddaughter’s pictures.</div>
<br />
<div align="center" style="margin: 0px; text-align: center;">
* * *</div>
“West Coast manufactures thin film,” Grady was saying. “It
would be perfect for our application. See here?”<br />
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px;">
Grady had a schematic up on his computer screen, but Brett
wasn’t concentrating. Standing next to the desk, looking over Grady’s shoulder,
Brett could see right into Ivy Elliot’s cubicle between the two offices.</div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px;">
She typed away, then stopped, biting her lip, thinking as
she pushed a silky lock of short dark hair behind her ear.</div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px;">
“Yeah. Let’s bring their sales people in, see what they can
offer,” he told Grady. “And send me the website link, too.”</div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px;">
But his gaze was on Ivy. He’d taken stock of her skirmish
with Rhonda, though he hadn’t been able to hear what it was about. Rhonda was
both his blessing and his curse. Her knowledge in the Human Relations field was
invaluable, often averting disasters before they happened, and her instincts
about new hires were spot on. But she had favorites, and just as quickly held
grudges.</div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px;">
He had a feeling she’d taken a dislike to Ivy Elliot.</div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px;">
That situation—and Ivy, especially Ivy—would bear watching.</div>
<br />
<div align="center" style="margin: 0px; text-align: center;">
* * *</div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px;">
“She’s driving me crazy,” Ivy told Jordana and Gloria over a
small bowl of chili for lunch. She was on a budget and brown-bagged it most days,
but once a week they all went out, usually on Friday. Despite the fact that it
was only Thursday, after the morning she’d had with Rhonda, she’d needed a good
talk with friends who understood.</div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px;">
Both Jordana and Gloria had their run-ins with Rhonda. And
those battles seemed to be increasing to outright warfare.</div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px;">
“You can’t let her walk all over you,” Jordana said. They’d
chosen a diner for lunch, and Jordana had ordered the grilled ham and cheese
while Gloria had the Chinese chicken salad.</div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px;">
Ivy’s mouth watered for a taste of both. And some French
Fries. Maybe she’d make Joy grilled cheese sandwiches for dinner. Comfort food.</div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px;">
Gloria snorted. “No one can <i>stop</i> Rhonda walking all
over them, Jordana, and you know it.”</div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px;">
Jordana hung her head, wagging it sadly, her long brunette hair
barely missing the blotch of ketchup on her plate. “Yes, I know. But I’ve got
Grady to stick up for me, and you’ve got Parker. Poor Ivy doesn’t have anyone.”</div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px;">
<i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">Poor Ivy.</i> Neither
of them needed someone else to fight their battles. They both handled their
clashes with Rhonda so much better than Ivy did. She didn’t seem to have what
it took to stand up to Rhonda the way she knew she should.</div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px;">
Not that she was going to admit that to her friends.</div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px;">
“Girls, girls,” she jumped in. “I can totally handle it. But
only because I’ve got you guys to whine to.”</div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px;">
“We need a better strategy.” Gloria speared a mandarin and
chewed thoughtfully. She was beautiful—and Ivy would <i>not</i> add <i>for her
age</i> to that. At forty-eight—she’d had a birthday just a few weeks ago but
her candles hadn’t set off the smoke alarm—Gloria was the kind of
sophisticated, elegant woman Ivy strove to be: self-controlled, smart,
confident, articulate. Which were all the reasons Parker Hunt had fallen for
her.</div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px;">
Ivy equally admired Jordana, who was only thirty. Yes, she
was four years younger than Ivy, but she was already a manager, a position for
which she’d had to go up against Rhonda. And she’d won. She was totally
together. Plus she’d completely wowed Grady.</div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px;">
Ivy suddenly wondered if she were jealous. Jordana had
Grady. And though Gloria and Parker had been together officially for only a
month, they were meant for each other. For her friends, it was more than just
having someone to back them against Rhonda. It was having someone to share
everything else with. A man to go home to.</div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px;">
But Ivy had Joy. That was more than enough for her.</div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px;">
Except sometimes, late at night, alone in her bed. But really,
been there done that, got the T-shirt and the heartache to prove it. If she
could find the <i>perfect</i> man, maybe. But after Parker and Grady, how many
more perfect men could there be?</div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px;">
An image of Brett Baker, gorgeous smile and toned body,
jumped into her mind.</div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px;">
No. No, no, no. He wasn’t even a fantasy. He was the CEO.</div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px;">
“Earth to Ivy.” Jordana nudged her. “We need a strategy.”</div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px;">
Ivy smiled big. “I totally love that you guys use the royal <i>we</i>.”</div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px;">
“The three musketeers,” Gloria said sweetly and honestly, tucking
her blond hair behind her ear. “We’re going to do everything we can for you.”</div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px;">
Ivy let her spoon plop into her chili. “You’re right. I <i>am</i>
letting her walk all over me.”</div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px;">
Her mother had called her a doormat. Joy’s father had left Ivy
high and dry when he found out she was pregnant. After treating her like a
doormat for years. He hadn’t married her, and he’d even claimed Joy wasn’t his
child.</div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px;">
So Ivy had to admit she had a history of allowing people to
take advantage. If she thought about it too much, she felt like a failure.
Especially since she hadn’t finished her college degree either.</div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px;">
“I didn’t mean anything negative,” Jordana said. “Just that—”</div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px;">
Ivy flapped her hand. “I know what you meant. You guys have
been telling me all along. And I keep telling you I can handle it, but I don’t.
Honestly, I know you want to just step in and <i>do</i> something,” she
stressed. “But really, we’re all waiting for <i>me</i> to <span style="margin: 0px;">do</span> <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">something</i>.” Why couldn’t she be as strong as Jordana or Gloria?</div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px;">
“You work for Grady, too, you know. Rhonda’s monopolizing
your time.”</div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px;">
“Actually, she’s not. I take it home with me.”</div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px;">
Jordana shook her finger at her. “But you don’t get paid for
it. That’s just wrong. And it’s illegal. You can’t expect hourly employees to
work off the clock and not pay them.”</div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px;">
Ivy tipped her head. “Do you believe I’m inefficient?” She
stopped Gloria when she opened her mouth to protest. “I’m serious. Rhonda
claims I work hard, but I don’t work smart.”</div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px;">
“She’s crazy,” Jordana retorted, her teeth grinding.</div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px;">
“How did she ever get into Human Resources when she actually
hates people?” Gloria asked. It was rhetorical because no one had answers about
Rhonda.</div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px;">
But maybe Rhonda had a point. Ivy had worked hard in
college. But she’d never graduated. Instead, she’d fallen in love with her
professor. Who had eventually become Joy’s father. And he’d left her.</div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px;">
She wasn’t doing <i>something</i> right. Except for raising
Joy. Her daughter was her only success. What Ivy really wanted was to stay home
with Joy, homeschool her, help her get the absolute best start in life.
Instead, Joy went to a <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">decent</i> school
in a <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">decent</i> neighborhood because
that’s all Ivy could afford. She wanted more than <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">decent</i> for Joy. She wanted exceptional.</div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px;">
But now, even when they were together, she was giving her
daughter short shrift because she worked in the evenings. And didn’t get paid
for it.</div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px;">
“No,” she said, as if the girls had said something. “I’m doing
a good job.”</div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px;">
“A <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">great</i> job.
Grady certainly knows it,” Jordana reinforced.</div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px;">
Ivy continued to bolster herself. “If the work can’t get
done during office hours, then the expectations are way too high.”</div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px;">
“Of course they are.” Gloria leaned forward in earnest
agreement. “You’re right, we do want to step in and make it all better for you.
Strangling Rhonda would be the best idea.”</div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px;">
“But you might get arrested,” Jordana observed with total
solemnity.</div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px;">
Gloria grinned evilly. “Not if you both cover for me.”</div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px;">
Just like Grady, after Parker had come back into her life, Gloria
had started smiling more, laughing more. Making more jokes. But Ivy was deadly
serious right now. “I really appreciate the support—” Jordana and Gloria had
become her rocks over the past couple of months. “—but I’m not a little girl
with a booboo you can fix. I can’t go to the HR Manager and say my boss is
mistreating me. I can’t go to my other boss and say that either. This problem
is mine to solve.”</div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px;">
She had to tackle Rhonda, to prove to herself that she was
strong enough. She would force Rhonda to acknowledge that there needed to be
compensation for the constant underestimating of her time. “If she can’t assess
the job properly, I’ll just have to make her pay for my overtime.”</div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px;">
Both Gloria and Jordana raised their hands. “You go, girl.”</div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px;">
They all high-fived in the center of the table.</div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px;">
“But let me ask you this,” Gloria said, her head tipped to
the side. “What do you <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">really</i> want to
do? What I mean is that you’re sort of falling into Human Resources.”</div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px;">
“Or,” Jordana added, “we’re pushing you into it.”</div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px;">
The chili suddenly seemed way too spicy and Ivy’s cheeks
heated. She wasn’t sure she wanted to answer these questions. “Of course you’re
not pushing. I want to move up. I need the money for Joy.”</div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px;">
“Yes, but,” Gloria persisted, “sometimes we get locked into
jobs we don’t really like. Especially if it’s just about the money.”</div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px;">
Ivy’s chili was definitely too hot, burning her throat a
little. It wasn’t about the questions. It was about her failures. About the
dreams she would never realize. And about wanting to do something that would be
frowned on in a career-oriented world.</div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px;">
“Come on, spill,” Jordana urged. “I can see it written all
over you.”</div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px;">
“It’s really not possible,” she said softly.</div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px;">
“Everything’s possible.” Gloria’s voice was just as soft, encouraging
Ivy’s confidences.</div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px;">
For Gloria, everything was possible because she was at the
top of her field. She hadn’t dropped out of college. She hadn’t had a baby she
couldn’t afford to raise. She’d made good choices.</div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px;">
“We’d really love to know.”</div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px;">
Ivy didn’t have friends. At least not until these two women
had taken her under their wings. She hadn’t confided things in years, except to
her mother, who’d never been the most sympathetic ear. She’d even forgotten
what it was like to have someone to share your feelings with. To talk with about
your dreams, as silly as they might seem. “It sounds dumb, but what I’d like to
do more than anything is homeschool Joy.” She’d even love to have more
children, homeschool them all, be a full-time mom. But then she’d need a
husband.</div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px;">
“Wow,” Jordana said. “That’s amazing. I could never do that,
but it sounds fabulous.”</div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px;">
“That’s perfect,” Gloria said, setting down her fork, her
eyes narrowed. “Maybe you could make a business out of it by starting a day care.”</div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px;">
Ivy groaned. “Yeah, but then I’d have to deal with other
people’s issues all the time. And believe me, I see how badly some of those
moms can behave.”</div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px;">
Jordana licked crumbs off her finger and thumb. “Don’t kids
who get homeschooled become sort of isolated and maybe even antisocial? Because
they’re never around other kids?”</div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px;">
“It’s not like that at all. There are online communities of
homeschoolers. The kids get together for outings and projects, sports, all
sorts of activities.”</div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px;">
Jordana blinked, then smiled. “Learn something new every
day.”</div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px;">
“It sounds like you’ve really looked into this.” Gloria gave
her a thoughtful, considering gaze.</div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px;">
“It’s just a pipedream. And really, after the women’s
movement, aren’t we all supposed to be out there earning more money and making
our way in a man’s world?” Right, which was why she was still a secretary. And embarrassed
about a silly dream, especially with two friends who were climbing the
corporate ladder.</div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px;">
“The essence of feminism,” Gloria said, “is the freedom to
do what you want, whether it’s being President of the United States or a stay-at-home
mom.”</div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px;">
“That’s beautiful,” Jordana said, awe in her voice.</div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px;">
Ivy felt the same awe. But there was also reality. “You
still have to support your kid. And without a partner to help…” She shrugged
with the impossibility of it.</div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px;">
“But maybe you could think of a way to have both,” Gloria
suggested, staring across the room, as if she were already devising a plan.
“Some way of making a career out of homeschooling.”</div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px;">
“Like homeschooling other people’s kids?” Jordana asked.</div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px;">
Gloria shrugged and nodded. “Maybe.”</div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px;">
“Or,” Ivy said, pausing, thinking, “doing something with
outside programs and activities for homeschoolers.” It was just an idea,
encouraged by friends who thought outside the box. It would probably never come
to anything. And yet it was nice to dream.</div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px;">
Before considering anything else, however, she needed to
tackle Rhonda.</div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px;">
Ivy could never be strong enough to create her own
specialized business if she couldn’t even handle a difficult boss.</div>
<br />

<div style="margin: 0px;">
<span lang="EN" style="margin: 0px;">Bella and I have been dying
to write this story. We felt Evan’s pain through three books and Iouldn’t
wait for things to explode. Because inevitably they had to! Evan couldn’t just
keep on taking the crap his wife Whitney kept dealing out. So now you have it,
what <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">really</i> happened! And you’re
going to be totally surprised when the truth about Whitney finally comes out!
Even our editor was taken by surprise.</span></div>

<div style="margin: 0px;">
The blurb…</div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px;">
Evan Collins is the man
with the Midas touch. Having left his hard childhood behind him, the tech
genius vowed to one day have everything. But when he discovers his marriage is
built on lies, the only people he can trust now are the Mavericks—and the woman
who has always been there for him: Paige, the sister of his soon-to-be ex-wife.</div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px;">
Paige Ryan has always
loved Evan Collins, a secret she’s hugged close to her heart for nine long
years. But when her sister's devastating betrayal is revealed, Paige can’t keep
her feelings hidden any longer.</div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px;">
Paige is a beacon of
light for Evan. Despite believing he needs to keep the walls around his heart
stronger than ever, he's irresistibly drawn to her sweet, pure heart—and the
undeniable sparks flaring between them. She's the only one he trusts to help
him face the darkness of his past head-on before it destroys him. But will
their forbidden romance end up destroying them both?</div>

<span style="margin: 0px;">Now, before I give you an excerpt, let me tell you about another new
release by a good friend of mine. This is quite a bit different than the books
I write, but I think you’re going to love it. Melissa Storm’s <b><i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">Love’s Promise</i></b> is a sweet Christian
romance, but it also tackles issues about body image and how we never feel like
we’re good enough.</span><br />

<br />
<div style="margin: 0px;">
It had all been lies.</div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px;">
From the moment Evan Collins met Whitney Ryan to the day
their marriage ended a month ago, right after Thanksgiving. But that was all
over now. He was setting his world to rights, reclaiming his life, moving on.</div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px;">
And he was home again.</div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px;">
Evan stood in the arched living room doorway of Susan and
Bob Spencer’s Chicago home. Their house was fragrant with Christmas pine,
mulled wine, and joy. The decorations still hung, stockings along the fireplace
and brilliant poinsettias brightening the corners of the room, which was big
enough to handle all of Harper Newman and Will Franconi’s wedding guests
tomorrow.</div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px;">
When the money had started to flow for the Mavericks, the
first thing the five friends had done was move the Spencers into a good
neighborhood. At the time, this home was a palace compared to the apartment in
the dreary, backwater neighborhood they’d grown up in. Now that millions had
turned to billions, the Mavericks wanted to buy them a better and bigger house.
But Susan and Bob insisted this was their dream home.</div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px;">
Now it would be the dream setting for Harper and Will’s
wedding.</div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px;">
No one had noticed Evan’s arrival yet as he hung back,
watching his foster family. For the past twenty-five years, they’d been a tight
unit, going back to when they were kids out in the schoolyard. None of their
childhoods had been innocent, and they’d each had their fair share of
scars—both physical and emotional—by the time they left Susan and Bob’s home
and headed out to conquer the world.</div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px;">
But only Evan had made the mistake of marrying the wrong
woman.</div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px;">
Damn it, he’d already lost enough time over her—including
the month he’d just spent in isolation in Europe beating himself up over his
mistakes. It was long past time to move forward.</div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px;">
God, he’d missed his family and friends. All the people who
were closer to him than blood. Closer than the wife he’d thought loved him.</div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px;">
Harper and Will would be married tomorrow, on New Year’s
Eve, and tonight was the cusp of a new life for them. No matter how badly his
life had imploded, he would never miss their wedding.</div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px;">
Harper was radiant in a burgundy dress that made everything
about her shine—Will’s eyes certainly followed her everywhere she moved. He lit
up with each of her smiles, every time she laughed. Harper’s brother, Jeremy,
circled like a satellite, his usual enthusiastic, joyful self.</div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px;">
Sebastian Montgomery and his fiancée, Charlie Ballard,
flanked her mother, Francine, who was perched in a wing chair. Francine’s lined
face beamed with happiness—she and Charlie were a perfect addition to the
Mavericks. Sebastian’s hand stroked over Charlie’s red hair, and she leaned
into his touch.</div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px;">
Matt Tremont sat beside them, one hand on his son’s back,
the other around the waist of his girlfriend, Ari Jones. Evan’s chest tightened
at the sight of little Noah, who was almost six now, in Ari’s arms. Evan had
planned to have his own kids by now, his hope growing with every passing year
for the miracle of a healthy baby. Only to finally discover the horrible truth,
a month ago, about why that had never come to be…</div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px;">
He put the brakes on the runaway locomotive of his thoughts.
He’d deliberately left his raw, battered emotions behind after his European
travels. From here on out, he was moving full steam ahead into a new world
unmarked by his past.</div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px;">
Evan Collins had started over more than once in his life.</div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px;">
This time he vowed to get it right.</div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px;">
Thankfully, his friends had already gotten it completely
right. Will had found his perfect match in Harper. Evan felt Sebastian’s joy in
being with Charlie and was ecstatic that Noah now had a brand-new mother in
Ari. Not for one minute would Evan let his own loss tarnish this celebration.</div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px;">
There had been so many moments during the last month when
he’d wanted to punch in Will’s number, or Susan’s, or Matt’s, or God help him,
call all his friends at once. To bare his soul. To tell them everything. And
yet, in answer to all their queries after telling them a month ago that he was
divorcing Whitney, the most he’d managed was a single curt text saying he was
doing fine.</div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px;">
At least he’d sent them a response. Whitney’s sister, Paige,
had reached out to him too.</div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 12px 24px 0px;">
<span style="margin: 0px;"><i>Whitney just told me everything. I know you
must be in shock right now. Call me as soon as you’re up to it.</i></span></div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 16px 0px 0px; text-indent: 0in;">
But he hadn’t gotten to that
point, not knowing what to say or how to say it. So he hadn’t replied at all,
ignoring not only her texts, but her emails and phone calls as well.</div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px;">
Evan’s gut clenched as he realized Paige was nowhere to be
seen tonight, as though she no longer felt welcome now that Evan and her sister
had split up. As if she actually believed she was the “hanger-on” Whitney had
always called her. He’d never felt that way about Paige. No one had.</div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px;">
At the very least, thank God Whitney hadn’t shown up. She’d
been on the invitation they’d received before their marriage imploded, and he
knew all too well how much she would relish causing her own special brand of
trouble at the wedding.</div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px;">
At last, Daniel turned and spotted him. Evan could easily
read the emotions on his friend’s face—shock, concern, maybe even a little
anger. In a split second, however, it all disappeared beneath Daniel’s smile of
welcome.</div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px;">
The Mavericks always accepted each other unconditionally.
They didn’t take crap, but at the same time, they understood when a guy had to
work things out on his own. And Evan swore that he had worked out all his
emotions about Whitney. Even if it had taken a brutally lonely month spent
halfway around the globe.</div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px;">
Separating from the group laughing at one of Bob’s hilarious
stories, Daniel headed his way. “Glad you made it for the wedding.” He gave
Evan a quick, hard hug.</div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px;">
Despite owning a home improvement retail conglomerate and hosting
a DIY TV show, Daniel Spencer was the most muscular of the bunch. Making
boatloads of money had never gotten in the way of his outdoor activities, which
included personally building a cabin in Lake Tahoe.</div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px;">
“Glad to be here.” Evan glanced at Harper and Will. “I
wouldn’t miss the wedding.”</div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px;">
“Some of us had our doubts. But we all know it’s been a
rough month.”</div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px;">
<span style="margin: 0px;"><i><span style="font-family: "times";">Rough</span></i></span> was an understatement. Evan’s
mission in Europe had been about more than visiting his subsidiaries in London,
Berlin, Paris, Rome, and Stockholm. The arms of The Collins Group, his
investment corporation, reached out globally, and he believed in hiring local
expertise. After all, they knew the markets, the economies, the politics, all
of which affected investment decisions, and those people were the best at
keeping him fully informed. He’d been determined to work himself out of the
dark pit he’d fallen into when he’d learned the truth about the full extent of
Whitney’s betrayal. At first, he’d fermented in that dark place, hating
Whitney, hating himself for not seeing the truth. But now he refused to keep
handing her that power over him, not when he’d just come home to his family
again.</div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px;">
“It’s over now,” Evan said. “I’m moving on.”</div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px;">
Daniel smiled wide. “Sure you are.” But his next words
belied the easy smile. “Need to talk? One on one?”</div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px;">
Evan drank in the laughter in the room before answering.
“No.” He didn’t want to destroy the homecoming. Didn’t want to plunge back into
darkness either. “I’m fine.”</div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px;">
Daniel nodded, and for a moment, Evan thought his friend
might let it go at that. Until he added, “We’re here if you change your mind.”</div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px;">
Thank God for friends. They had always been there, since he
was a skinny ten-year-old. They stood up for each other then and now. He knew
they all thought he was better off without Whitney, that none of his friends
ever really liked her. Evan was the one who’d made excuses for her behavior,
who’d told himself that the Mavericks didn’t really know her.</div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px;">
Only to find out that <span style="margin: 0px;"><i><span style="font-family: "times";">he</span></i></span> was the one
who hadn’t known his wife.</div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px;">
Not at all.</div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px;">
Across the room, Susan laughed delightedly as Bob gave the
punch line to his joke. They always laughed together—not <span style="margin: 0px;"><i><span style="font-family: "times";">at</span></i></span>
each other, but <span style="margin: 0px;"><i><span style="font-family: "times";">with</span></i></span> each other. Over Bob’s shoulder,
Susan finally saw Evan, her features freezing for a moment with deep motherly concern.</div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px;">
She whispered something to Bob, and he immediately pivoted.
As if their moves were a signal to the rest of the group, the conversation fell
silent.</div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px;">
Susan was soon enveloping Evan in a hug. He was transported
back to childhood, to the heat of Susan and Bob’s kitchen, to the warmth
generated by the unconditional love she and Bob showered on all the Mavericks.
The Spencers had taken them in, fostered them, treated them like their own
sons, giving them the same love they’d given to Daniel and his sister, Lyssa.
In Susan and Bob’s house, there was always more than enough love to go around.</div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px;">
“I missed you, honey.”</div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px;">
“Missed you too,” he answered as he hugged her back, not
wanting to let her go.</div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px;">
Bob knuckled his head, and Sebastian punched his arm
lightly. “Dude, I knew you wouldn’t miss the food.”</div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px;">
Evan clapped his friend on the back. “It’s Matt who’s all
about the food.”</div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px;">
Matt snorted. “Give me a break. Daniel’s the free-food
king.”</div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px;">
As they all laughed, Evan’s heart clenched tight again.
Only, this time it wasn’t out of pain—it was because he no longer had a doubt
in his head or his heart or his gut that he’d been right to come home.</div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px;">
Noah squirmed out of Ari’s grip and launched himself at
Evan. He scooped up Matt’s son, burying his face in Noah’s blond curls as the
boy chattered excitedly. “I swam the pool end to end five times without
stopping. It must be a whole mile.”</div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px;">
“You’re a superstar,” he said, giving Noah a high five
before putting him back down on the floor so he could run off to play with
Jeremy.</div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px;">
Turning to Ari, Evan asked, “Where’s your brother?” Evan had
met Gideon only once, at Thanksgiving. The guy was enigmatic, having recently
come back into Ari’s life after spending seven years in the military, and
another nine years working construction all over the country. Evan wasn’t sure
he trusted him, and he worried about Ari because of it.</div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px;">
“Gideon was so grateful for Harper and Will’s invitation to
the wedding,” Ari replied, “but he wasn’t able to get out of work to come.”
Evan knew that Daniel would have given him the time off, but he didn’t refute
her.</div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px;">
The front door opened, and seconds later, a snow-dusted
woman threw herself at him. Lyssa, Daniel’s sister, had always been a handful.
She was the kid sister he’d never had, a toddler when he’d moved in with Susan
and Bob a couple of years after his mother ran off. All the Mavericks felt like
they’d raised her—and they would go to any length to protect her.</div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px;">
“You big lug. Where have you been this past month?” She
smacked a hand on his chest. “I desperately needed to talk to you because—” She
lowered her voice to a conspiratorial murmur. “—I hate to admit it, but I
detest my job. You’re my financial wizard, so I know you’ll give me good
advice.”</div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px;">
“I’ll help you out any way I can,” he promised.</div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px;">
“Thank you,” she said, giving him one of her sunny smiles as
she let him go. “I definitely need a sage old man’s advice.”</div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px;">
Lyssa loved to needle him about their ten-year age
difference. And the truth was that he <span style="margin: 0px;"><i><span style="font-family: "times";">did</span></i></span> feel incredibly
old. The last month had aged him. Hell, the last couple of years had.</div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px;">
Working to keep the bleak thoughts from his face—and wipe
them from his mind—he turned to Will next and pumped his friend’s hand, then
pulled Harper into a hug. “You’re radiant, Harper. The perfect bride-to-be.”</div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px;">
She smiled, her cheeks pinkening. “Thank you, Evan.” Concern
flashed in her eyes, just as it had in Susan’s, but thankfully, before she
could press him on how he was doing, Susan guided him into the living room.</div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px;">
“Have you eaten? Do you need something to drink?”</div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px;">
“I’m fine,” he said, his constant refrain. “And I need to
say hello to this lovely lady.” He hunkered down by Francine Ballard’s chair to
give her a hug and let her know how happy he was to see her again.</div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px;">
Charlie’s mother’s fingers were gnarled with arthritis, her
legs shackled in braces, and getting up and down quickly was hard work. But she
still walked a mile a day.</div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px;">
If she could keep going, keep moving forward, so could he.</div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px;">
Evan’s family was full of smiles. Hugs. Unconditional love.
But he could see that they were also walking on glass, with no one pushing. No
one prodding. No one demanding to know how he could have left for a month with
nothing more than a text to Susan, Bob, and the other Mavericks.</div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 12px 24px 0px;">
<span style="margin: 0px;"><i>Getting divorced. I’m heading out to visit my
European offices. I’ll be back for the wedding.</i></span></div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 16px 0px 0px; text-indent: 0in;">
He’d answered their shocked
and concerned texts with his new stock phrase, <span style="margin: 0px;"><i>I’m fine.</i></span>
And then he’d gone dark.</div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px;">
“Honey, you must be starved after your long trip here.”
Susan signaled him with a wave into the dining room. The sideboard was set with
a spread of appetizers, casseroles, and salads. “Let me get you something to
eat.” She loaded up a plate with his favorite dishes, then sat beside him at
the dining room table. “Will insisted I use a caterer for the rehearsal dinner.
And the wedding too. He said he didn’t want me exhausting myself with all the
cooking. I wasn’t sure how well it would work out, but the food is good, don’t
you think?”</div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px;">
“This curry rice is mouthwatering.” He wasn’t hungry, but he
ate for Susan.</div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px;">
“You’ve lost weight.” She frowned in concern again. “How are
you really doing, honey? We’ve all been so worried.” The Maverick chatter
carried through the living room archway, with everyone careful not to intrude
on their private moment.</div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px;">
“I’ve moved on. I’m not dwelling on the past. It’s over. I
just needed a few weeks to figure things out, that’s all.”</div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px;">
She locked eyes with him for a long moment. One in which he
tried not to squirm like a little kid under his mother’s all-seeing gaze. “We
understand why you needed time to process what happened.” She put her hand over
his, sorrow and fury mixing together on her face as she said, “Paige told us
what happened. About the things Whitney did.”</div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px;">
He should have known Paige would spill the whole sordid tale
to Susan and Bob, to the Mavericks. After all these years, she was family
too—and family turned to one another when they needed help dealing with
difficult issues. He should have done that too, but the deep shame of having
been blind for so long to Whitney’s true nature had held him back…</div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px;">
He squeezed her hand. “You didn’t need to worry. You and Bob
taught me to deal with the tough knocks and keep on going.”</div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px;">
“I have to admit you look better than I thought you would.”
She shook a finger at him. “Except that you’re too skinny.”</div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px;">
He laughed for her, because she needed it and he wanted to
make up for the worry he’d caused her. Then he made himself pick up his fork
and eat a few more bites as Susan told him all about the wedding preparations.
But he wasn’t really there with her.</div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px;">
Because no matter how hard he tried, he couldn’t stop
himself from rewinding back four weeks, far away from this warm and loving
family home…</div>
<br />

<div style="margin: 0px;">
<i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">Romances to make you
blush set in a glitzy, sensual world of powerful people and the courtesans
they’ll pay anything to have.</i></div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px;">
In the high stakes business world, the CEO just doesn’t play
around with the CFO. It’s totally unethical. Yet with every breath she takes,
CEO Devon Parker wants her CFO Hunter Nash. She’s in danger of acting on her
ill-advised desires, until Isabel of Courtesans comes up with the perfect
solution: find a lookalike. Devon arranges a hot little interlude after office hours
when she’s sure no one else will show up. She even has her courtesan call
himself Hunter, and he plays the role to the hilt. </div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px;">
It’s absolutely perfect, satisfaction guaranteed. Except for
one small detail. The real Hunter Nash is watching. </div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px;">
When he learns of Devon’s secret fantasy, Hunter devises his
own plan to make her ditch the stand-in and take the real thing. And he has a
merger of a more permanent nature in mind.</div>
