First off I’d like to thank Sharon for letting me take over her blog today!  THANK YOU SHARON!!!

Second, I’d like to give away one copy of my book Two-Timing the Boss in eformat to one commenter 🙂

Today I want to have a little Two-Timing the Boss character dictionary fun. That’s right, I’m going to lay out the main characters that appear in Two-Timing the Boss and give you a little bit of info about them.  Are you ready?

Keller Donovan:  Hot, sexy, billionaire boss of Donovan Enterprises who stands several inches over six feet and possesses thick, wavy brown hair that lightens to a soft, fired copper at the ends. He’s got a bad rep in the boardroom as well as the bedroom and believes all relationships have a shelf life of six months or less. Is there a woman out there who can change his mind?

Farah Smith:  An amber haired good-girl who will do anything to help her sister, even going so far as dressing up as a blonde office professional who teeters in heels over one inch and dares to speak her mind. She believes in a safe, fairy-tale love like in the old movies she enjoyed watching with her grammy. Does such a love exist?

Karah Smith:  Farah’s twin sister who shares her amber hair and brown eyes and was burned in a car accident where she lost the love of her life.  She’s a bit spoiled and selfish, but loves her sister just as much as her sister loves her—though she doesn’t let that part of her show. Will she grow past her selfishness and see her full potential?

Alec:  The good-natured neighbor who owns a catering business and has helped Farah and Karah through some rough times. He’s in love with one of the sisters, but to shy to reveal himself—at first. Will the sister he loves return his feelings?

Robin:  Keller’s long-term employee who knows him better than he knows himself. She ends up being Farah’s confidant and also turns on the lights so Farah can see Keller for who he truly is. What part will she play in helping love find a home?

Paul:  Farah’s ex who left her when she decided caring for her sister was her number one priority—but he’s back on the scene and he wants to win Farah back. Will he?

Richard Parks:  The married office gossip and resident trouble maker-womanizer who feels every female in his vicinity won’t be able to resist him. Can Farah?

BLURB:

Farah Smith is on a mission: secure the funds for her twin sister’s surgery.  She’ll do whatever it takes to succeed.  Even if that means putting her values aside to work for a man she finds morally bankrupt.  But when the real Farah meets her new boss, she wonders if she’ll be able to resist his sexy advances long enough to help her sister.

From the blonde wig, to the stilettos strapped around her ankles, Farah’s a clone of Keller Donovan’s harem of past assistants.  She can’t believe she’s let herself be talked into the disguise, let alone working for the man planning to demolish the hospital her sister so desperately needs, but the salary he offers is the only way she’ll be able to afford her sister’s surgery.  The moment Farah meets Keller she realizes her most daunting task isn’t typing, spreadsheets or organizing travel arrangements, but fighting the growing attraction toward a man whose ruthlessness is legendary in the boardroom as well as the bedroom.

Determined not to end up in a disastrous marriage like his divorced parents, Keller believes all relationships should have a shelf life of sixth months or less.  But when he meets Farah, all bets are off.  He not only wants her to continue as his personal assistant, but his own private bed warmer.  Unfortunately, his offer of an affair doesn’t sit well with her fairytale dreams or the strangled hold gripping his heart.

EXCERPT:

These damn shoes would be the death of her.  She could read the headlines now:  Penniless P.A. Falls to her Death while on Job Interview.

Almost to her destination, with no more mishaps, her confidence surfaced.  Okay, maybe mastering this heel thing wouldn’t be such a big deal.  Her steps became light, almost bouncy.  Although she sensed Keller Donovan behind her, she didn’t let it deter her feeling of success.  She stepped onto the large black and red area rug, less than ten feet from her target.  The leather chairs.

“Oh!”  Farah’s spiky heel caught on the edge of the expensive rug.  Her legs shook and she shot her arms out from her sides, circling them like a bird about to take flight.  She fought to regain balance inside the ridiculous stilts strapped to her feet.  A brawl to the death.  Over when she looked down to see the rug coming up to kiss her face.  She threw out her hands, sucked in a breath and closed her eyes, scrunching her face as she prepared for impact.

But nothing happened.  There were stars all right, and a blazing jolt of electricity shot from her toes, up her legs, through her body and exited with the small gasp which escaped her lips.  Somehow Keller Donovan had grabbed her around the waist before she met the floor.

Heat burned her cheeks.  He may have saved her body from bruises, but her ego, and whatever confidence she’d walked in with had shattered.

“Let’s not have an accident before your health benefits kick in.”  His breath

tickled her ear from behind.  Chills hugged her backbone.

His touch released an unsettling flutter in her abdomen.  She sucked in her stomach from the pressure of his strong arms wrapped around her middle, afraid to breathe.
