A man who always gets what he wants. Chicago sports agent, Cyrus Fletcher is giving the full court press to an NBA rookie to sign with his agency by gifting him a weekend jaunt in Las Vegas. But the rookie wants to make it a couple’s weekend and Fletch needs a date. Fletch has had his eye on a particular woman, but he hasn’t found the right way to approach her until she cold calls his office looking for work. Fletch devises a plan that will net him the rookie, a rewarding weekend with the sexiest redhead he’s ever seen, and a huge signing bonus. A woman who makes a splash in the boardroom or the bedroom. Tricia is the Master of Many Trades, but her public relations business is tanking. If Tricia doesn’t hook a big-time client soon, not only will she be evicted from her office building, she’s going to lose every penny she’s already invested. When Fletch makes her an offer to pose as his ‘date’ for the weekend, she can’t refuse the money. Tricia’s only problem is, Fletch doesn’t believe she’s in PR, he thinks she’s a master of the oldest profession, but Tricia is savvy enough to seize the opportunity to save her company without giving ‘it’ up. Sometimes what happens in Vegas doesn’t end in Vegas.
Author
Windy City writer Elizabeth Marx brings cosmopolitan flair to her fiction, which is a blend of romance and fast-paced Chicago living with a sprinkle of magical realism. In her past incarnation she was an interior designer—not a decorator—which basically means she has a piece of paper to prove that she knows how to match and measure things and can miraculously make mundane pieces of furniture appear to be masterpieces. Elizabeth says being an interior designer is one part shrink, one part marriage counselor and one part artist, skills eerily similar to those employed in writing. Elizabeth grew up in Illinois and has also lived in Texas and Florida. If she’s not pounding her head against the wall trying to get the words just right, you can find her at a softball field out in the boonies or sitting in the bleachers by a basketball court. Elizabeth resides with her husband, girls, and two cats who’ve spelled everyone into believing they’re really dogs. Elizabeth has traveled extensively, but still says there’s no town like Chi-Town.
