The
Corner Office
by Katerina Baker
Genre: New Adult
Romance
Releases: June 23rd, 2017
The man she’s
always hated may finally take her down
Tara Johnson's
sacrifices are about to pay off: a senior executive at thirty-five at a Fortune
500 company, she's one of the two finalists in line for a Managing Director
position. Unfortunately, her rival of fifteen years, the charming, infuriating
Richard Boyd, is just as qualified, and unlike her, he's willing to cross
pretty much every line to get what he wants.
Of all the things Tara
stored in the attic to make it to the top, it's her personal life she misses
the most. That is, until she starts a steamy affair with sex god Aidan, her
direct report. Interoffice relationships with a subordinate can mean the end of
a career, and when Richard finds out, it's the perfect opportunity to take his
high-heeled nemesis out, especially since he's still nursing a grudge against
Tara for rejecting him years ago.
But Tara's increasingly
domineering lover has his own dark secrets, endangering more than just her
career. As her liaison spirals out of control, salvation will come from the man
she always thought she hated, and perhaps the only one to truly understand
I sauntered to the elevator with my well-practiced “confident” walk, stretched my arm to push the button—And my high-heeled sandal slipped.My knee gave in, and I grabbed onto the first thing I could reach to prevent me from the total embarrassment of ending up on the floor in front of everyone. I turned to thank the helpful soul…and came face-to-face with Richard and a lazy twist of his lips settled in the corner of his mouth. I continued to squeeze his arm and my chest brushed his side.But it was more than that; he placed his other arm on my lower back to support me, and I felt a slight tug. The bastard pulled me closer to him in front of everyone watching and my space was suddenly invaded by the scent of his cologne. By Richard.My insides tightened, and my lips pained as I was still trying to keep them in a semblance of a smile in front of everyone.“You okay there?” he asked, his expression no less mocking than it was earlier. “You seem flustered. I understand. You finally get to see my place.”The following moment was the testament to the long road that got me to that point in my career. All the brutal hours I’d slaved in the office, the hard work, missing friends’ events because of last-minute urgent assignments, working through my own birthdays—it all came down to that. My self-control to not kill Richard when every inch of my body believed spending the next twenty years in prison would be well worth it.I smiled into his snake-green eyes, pushed his arm away and stepped into the elevator. Just as the doors closed separating us, as he thankfully decided to stay with the next group, I managed to think of an appropriate response. But it was too late.
Katerina has always seen Romance stories in
everyday life. Well, maybe not "everyday", strictly speaking, unless
you count spying on a charismatic hedge fund manager ordinary, or touring
across Turkey on a quest to figure out the puzzle in the will of a deceived
Turkish woman as something you'd normally do, or even battling it out on the
executive floor with a decades-long nemesis who happens to be standing in your
way of achieving your life's goals.
One thing is certain,
though.
Love will prevail (even
if sometimes with the help of steamy sex).
