APRIL LOVE
by Nancy
Fraser
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
BLURB:
Eleanor Martin is every company's dream employee. She
arrives early, stays late and never misses a day. If it weren't for Eleanor's
skill as a private secretary, her architect boss would never make a deadline.
Not only does she keep him on track, she runs interference between him and his
over-bearing mother, his deadbeat brother, and the half dozen or so women who
want to bed him and/or wed him.
When Jess Norton acquires a new client who asks him to build a palatial hideaway on Grand Cayman Island, Jess is certain he'll never be able to complete the multi-million dollar job without the help of his efficient secretary. Despite her reservations, he convinces Eleanor to accompany him on the assignment of a lifetime.
The sun and the sand cast the perfect spell for romance But will the tides turn in the opposite direction?

Excerpt
Just when
she thought he wouldn’t comment further
on the file, he added, “Then, book a second airline seat for yourself on the
flight to Grand Cayman.”
“But—”
Jess quickly interrupted any excuse
she might have given. “If anyone can help me pull this all together on such
short notice, Miss Martin, it’s you. Book the flights, our hotel
accommodations, and advise Mack MacKenzie of our arrival date.”
“What about the office?” she asked.
“Who’s going to run things here?” As an excuse it wasn’t much, but all she had
at the moment.
“As I see it, if I’m not here, you don’t need
to be here. Paula can handle any emergencies and the receptionist can take your
messages.”
“When do you want to leave?” she
asked.
“Day after tomorrow, preferably. Or,
as soon as you can rearrange my schedule.”
“Day after tomorrow is Saturday.”
“You’ve never minded working weekends
before,” he pointed out. “Plus, we can get a head start on the next week and be
home before you know it.”
Eleanor left her boss’ office in a
daze. He’d been right when he’d said she never minded working weekends; she’d
just not expected the weekend to be on Grand Cayman Island. Mentally she began
a list of everything she’d need to get done, starting with flights, hotel and a
rental car, followed by what she’d need to pack. In the back of her mind,
something told her this was not going to work out well.
However, short of breaking a leg, she
didn’t see a way out of making the trip.
AUTHOR Bio and Links:
Like most authors, Nancy Fraser began
writing at an early age, usually on the walls and with crayons or, heaven
forbid, permanent markers. Her love of writing often made her the English
teacher’s pet, which, of course, resulted in a whole lot of teasing. Still, it
was worth it.
When not writing (which is almost
never), Nancy dotes on her five beautiful grandchildren and looks forward to
traveling and reading when time permits. Nancy lives in Atlantic Canada where
she enjoys the relaxed pace and colorful people.
