Sydney, Australia – Present Day
Serena Stevens has the plan for her life totally mapped out, no deviations,
no detours of any kind, and years of hard work and dedication have brought
her to a position as Junior Account Executive at Miles Advertising Australia.
At twenty-four, she's anxious to prove herself, but smart enough to
know that once she does, all she has to do is grab the brass ring and
swing it all the way to the top and right up the ladder of success.
She allows no time for dalliance or romance in her life. Sex, yes. Romance
and attachment -- no. But that was before David Miles summoned her to
his office.
Long ago, David Miles entertained his own dreams of flying high. Literally.
Until familial duty called and he put his aspirations aside, took the
safe road, then started his own company. One mistake early on, a fatal
romance, almost killed his business. He promised himself he would never
again be taken in by a woman’s mystique. Until Serena.
Serena made her intentions very clear when she was hired by Miles Advertising.
She planned to work her way up the company ladder and do great things
for both of them, but if another opportunity came along, she would be
gone in a flash. And now, David can't get Serena out his head. The chemistry
between them literally sizzles, and he longs for her voice, her laughter,
her constant presence. For sure, he's flying high, but is he headed
for a crash if Serena skips out on her way to the next big challenge
in her life?
HIRED FOR THE BOSS'S BED is a keeper! The flare of power in David's
alpha-male character is challenged by Serena's alpha-female persona.
She'd love nothing better than to best him at his own game. Serena wants
success, power, and riches, and nothing or no one will stop her climb
to the top. David is already at the top, but he has to keep his company
fresh in order to stay there. He wants Serena. Serena wants success.
Can they reach a happy compromise?
The secondary characters add lots more spark in this story of power
struggles and lust. Jezz McQuade works with Serena on an ad campaign
and offers little tidbits of advice about her relationship with David,
even though it's largely unwanted by Serena. Rachel Bragg is the woman
scorned, and Jonathan Sturts is the other love interest in Serena's
life, or at least he wishes he were! HIRED FOR THE BOSS'S BED is a lively
tale full of passion and fire!
