A devastating argument
One reckless decision

An unforgivable sin
 


Successful Manhattan businessman Richard Brooks is living the dream, drunk with success and all its trappings, until one reckless decision turns his dream life into a living nightmare. 


Richard flees to Minneapolis where he repairs ancient boilers instead of solving corporate problems, and he's determined to live the solitary life he now deserves. 


Executive Sheila Peterson has other plans for the handsome custodian. Richard appears to be the perfect match for the no-strings-attached romance she's after, but she soon discovers that he's hiding more than the designer clothes in his closet. 


Richard can't deny the allure of a relationship with Sheila. The closer they get, though, the greater the risk that she will discover not only who he used to be but also the unforgivable sin he committed that reckless night.

Excerpt

“THE GOOD NEWS IS that the company only lost a million this quarter.” Richard Brooks smirked at his assistant and slapped the quarterly report down on her desk.

“That’s the good news?” Verna stopped typing and then turned to him, propping a hand on her hip, her Southern accent always a welcome sound in this sea of nasally New Yorkers. “Young man, in my day people didn’t make a million dollars, much less lose it. Now, tell me, if that’s the good news, what’s the bad?”

He stared at the Picasso print above Verna’s desk. Reminded him of his life. “It looks like we’re going to have no choice but to close the Phoenix plant.” How had he missed the unmistakable signs of its mismanagement? Now, because of his lack of foresight, hundreds of people would lose their jobs. In all his years in New York City, he’d never made such a costly blunder.

“Goodness. And you’re blaming yourself. I can see it in those blue eyes of yours.”

“I should have seen it coming months ago. All the signs were there.”

“It just so happens you’ve had a few other things on your mind lately.”

The muscles in his cheeks tightened. “I’m not paid to think of other things.”
