Rumor Mill, page 17
I needed a second opinion. And for that, I needed my phone. Stalking back to the elevator, I rode up to the third floor. I barely saw the court clerks on their way to work or the dozens of defendants, witnesses and jury members who were arriving for the day.
Reaching my car, I unlocked it, stabbing my way into the glove box. Retrieving my phone, I angrily searched for my own lawyer’s number. It wasn’t yet nine in the morning, but I didn’t care. I was paying him a fortune, and he’d damned well better take my call.
Luckily, he was on top of his game, answering after the second ring.
“This is Brad Miller,” I announced myself, though I was fairly sure he already knew.
“What’s wrong?” he asked, dispensing with the formalities as only someone well versed in crisis could do.
“I just ran into Nick Pierce on the courthouse steps,” I said.
“The courthouse?” he parroted back to me.
“I went to see how Teddy’s case was coming,” I explained. “I’m here now.”
“What did Pierce say to you?” the lawyer focused in on the important part.
“He said that if I drop my investigation into him and his daughter, he’ll get Nikki to drop her lawsuit,” I replied.
The lawyer paused for a heartbeat to digest the enormity of the offer. Finally, he found his voice. “What are you going to do?”

TRI:
I’m a Navy SEAL on a mission to find out what’s happening in a politically-charged environment. When things go horribly wrong, I find myself saddled with my exact opposite: a female scientist who never runs out of questions or words. Now we’re stuck on a deserted island with no way off and information vital to avoiding World War III. Will we make it off the island in time to warn the world what’s coming? And will we do it with our hearts still intact?
ASHLEY:
They sent me to an island to find out why the marine life off the coast was behaving strangely. The only problem? It’s a contested land inhabited by terrorists. When I find myself stranded on the island with a Navy SEAL who saved my life, I don’t know whether we’ll make it off alive. But one thing I do know? I might be falling for the man with the haunting blue eyes. Before we find out whether we have a future together, we have to escape terrorists, get off the island, and save the world.

JAMIE CONNORS HAS GIVEN up on men. Despite being smart, pretty, and just slightly overweight, she’s a magnet for the kind of guys that don’t stay around.
Her sister’s wedding is at the foreground of the family’s attention. Jamie would be fine with it if her sister wasn’t pressuring her to lose weight so she’ll fit in the maid of honor dress, her mother would get off her case and her ex-boyfriend wasn’t about to become her brother-in-law.
Determined to step out on her own, she accepts a PA position from billionaire Alex Reid. The job includes an apartment on his property and gets her out of living in her parent’s basement.
Jamie must balance her life and somehow figure out how to manage her billionaire boss, without falling in love with him.
Kind of Billionaire
WILLIAM LANE IS DRIVING away from a life that devoured him whole. A divorce that sucked him dry, a company that took a nose-dive, and a broken heart he can't mend. His destination? New York City. A place with promise. A place with hope. A place that held a job he can't afford not to land. What he doesn't expect to run into is the gorgeous daughter of the man he's interviewing with.
Nor does he expect to get tangled up in her long limbs as a side gig.
