Wall Street financier David Powers is a man of rules. Rules for success. Rules for power. And, most important, rules for dating. No blondes, no under-26-year-olds, and definitely no one who works for him. Penny is his assistant, a young woman working for him in order to pay for Yale Medical School. She's smart, she's snarky, and she definitely doesn't have a huge crush on her boss. Tensions rise as the two slowly realize that their feelings for each other are growing far beyond the professional. But when Penny quits after false rumours of them sleeping together start to spread, David is faced with a choice: stick to his rules or desperately try to track down the woman he's fallen in love with. As Penny struggles to decide what life she wants to live, David's long-held beliefs are being tested like never before as he attempts to get her back. Together, they will have to see past each other's flaws and trauma in order to realize that, in business and love, some rules are meant to be broken.

***The wrong girl is sometimes The Right One.*** Charlotte Samuels thought she'd be stuck waiting tables at Marlow's until all her debts are paid off-in about ten thousand years or so. She definitely didn't expect a marriage proposal from the arrogant Brandon Maxfield who was blackmailed by his father to make her his wife if he didn't want his least favorite cousin to run Maxfield Industries. Charlotte's instinct was to say HELL NO! but she's stumped by a few obstacles: 1.) His old man Martin Maxfield is dear to her heart and has been recently deteriorating in health. 2.) She gets a million dollars if she stays married to Brandon for a year. 3.) She would rather like the opportunity to teach the attractive but awfully rude man a few lessons he didn't think he needed from a 'teenage gold-digger' which was his term of endearment for her on their first date-er, business meeting. So what's a girl got to do, right? Sure, she's young and a little rough around the edges but there's something her would-be husband didn't know about her yet-she's nothing like he ever expected. Thrust into the glitzy world a standard-issue Mrs. Maxfield would fit perfectly and rule with impeccable social grace, Charlotte will either have to force herself into the mold or break free of it, risking what little she has left for everything that she can gain. *** Copyright © 2014 by Nina Tippett.
