Oh, I think you would like to read an excerpt. :)
Excerpt:
Tegan
Ryan knew there would be trouble the moment her father sold half of the
business.
“Ms.
Ryan. Do you make a habit of being late?” There was no delay in recognising the deep, velvety voice. Her dark lashes blinked with disbelief as her gaze zeroed in on the new partner sitting opposite at the boardroom table. Six other staff members took up nearby seats.
Talk about receiving a good hard whack to her senses.
The
stranger she’d spoken to earlier that day was—the new boss. She shared his
umbrella due to a sudden, tropical downpour.
Embarrassment floored her.
She
told the stranger that the new boss was probably a grumpy old fart, a man
impossible to work for, and so up himself that everyone’s life would be sheer
misery the day he made a show. Her stomach shrivelled with that thought making
her feel as small as an ant and probably much smaller if she could remember what
else she’d babbled on about. At that moment, dissolving through the plush
carpeted floor would make her feel a damn whole lot better.
Repeating
rumours wasn’t her character, and she couldn’t believe she’d actually
participated in office gossip. Her body wavered, and filled with warm fluid.
Subconsciously her grip over her notebook and loose papers relaxed, and they
dropped to the floor. Drawing in a quiet breath, she bent to pick up the
paperwork. "Is everyhing all right Ms. Ryan?”
Demanding her weak legs to straighten, she flicked her gaze toward Mathew. “Yes, sorry I’m late...the traffic. I was with a client. And the rain, it’s raining.” Oh hell, what a statement. It’s raining! He’s going to think you’re a real genius now, but I guess it’s better than saying, ‘I’ve brought a watermelon.’
“We are aware of the downpour. Can we begin now?”
