*COMPLETE*

Alexis "Lex" Jeffries has survived her fair share of quick spin stories and opulent company events during her years in Quinto Technologies' Public Relations Department. However, none of it could prepare her for being tasked with marketing an extravagant charity gala in only a month.  To make matters worse, she has to do it alongside her handsome and charming manager, Alec Radcliffe.

With his rugged maturity, sweet compliments, and warm smile, Lex finds herself torn between the implications behind their office flirtations and her suspicions about what secrets might be lingering behind a surprise gala for a fledgling charity that seems to exist in name alone.

Her work ethic and moral code will have to combat a nosy reporter, a vindictive ex-lover, and a shady mannequin if she hopes to hit the dance floor both gainfully employed and blissfully in love.All Rights Reserved
