A smart, sexy entrepreneur. A wealthy,
arrogant ladies’ man set on purchasing her company. And a hotbed of chemistry
neither one of them anticipated.
Aiden Stewart is just going through the motions of running the family business, a mega communications company snapping up all the competition. His trip to a tiny New England town to negotiate the purchase of ChatDotCom is nothing more than an interruption in his plans for his next female conquest. The last thing he expects is for Chat’s CEO M. Jordan Fitzgerald to be a woman who takes his breath away.
Jordan is focused on business, not romance. She’s got too much at stake, working to protect Chat’s employees, as well as making sure her family is taken care of. Falling in love is not part of the business plan, but resisting the man she really should not want is proving impossible.
When a rival wants to take over Chat too, Jordan struggles to keep her personal life from affecting the business deal. With secrets that could ruin everything, she has to decide if she can balance business with pleasure.
Linda Cunningham introduces hot new characters in her second Small Town novel, a steamy office romance set in idyllic Clark’s Corner, Vermont.

CORPORATE AFFAIR Excerpt #2
Once through the big
front door, Aiden broke into a run, jogging down the row of cars parked on
the street outside
the Inn. He didn’t even know what kind of car she drove. Desperately he
craned his neck, trying
to see through the half-darkness. Then he saw movement at the end of the
line of cars: Jordan.
She was leaning on a black Jeep Grand Cherokee, repeatedly pushing the
lock mechanism. Aiden
could see the lights flashing on and off. He saw her open the door
and ran as fast as he
could, calling out to her. “Jordan! Jordan! Stop!”
He reached her just
as she got behind the wheel, the ignition key in her hand. He took her
forcefully by the
arms and lifted her out of the car.
“What the hell! Hey!”
she shouted at him. “What are you doing? Get your hands off me! Let go of me!”
“You can’t drive,”
Aiden started to explain. He was breathing hard but not from physical
exertion.
“Get away from me or
I’ll start screaming!” She began to rummage in her purse. “I’m calling the
police right now!”
It was then that
Aiden saw the flashing blue lights of the police cruiser. “Somebody saved you a
call,” he said wryly.
The cruiser pulled up
close behind Jordan’s car, blocking any movement. A big uniformed
officer got out,
flashlight in hand.
“Jordan!” the officer
exclaimed, recognizing her.
“John…John,” she
stammered, unable to finish her sentence.
“What’s going on
here?” said the officer.
Aiden spoke up, “We
were having dinner, officer. She didn’t feel well, and we came out here to
lock up her car. I’m
going to give her a ride home.”
The big man turned to
Jordan. “Is this true, Jordan?”
