Product Description

Product Description

Barry’s the Golden Boy with a killer corporate style and a former running back build.

Sam’s the techno-nerd with soft brown eyes and a smile that melts glass.

Sanji’s the world class soccer star, model, man-about-the-continent, and the face of Raji Enterprises.

In a tropical paradise in the Bermuda Triangle, corporate giants come to a business conference to wheel and deal. The stakes: a half billion dollar prospectus with shares up for negotiation.

Maggie’s the systems analyst whose expertise will seal the deal. Confident in her numbers, but not in herself, Maggie becomes an unaccustomed center of attention and the unwitting victim in a game of corporate one-upsmanship.

The question is: what will it take to get the negotiations back on track?

With three men vying for her favors, can Maggie afford the distraction—a distraction giving new meaning to the term hot and sultry?

A tropical paradise does terrible things to the human psyche. Maggie, a systems analyst a little way past the blush of youth, finds herself the object of lust for 3 men. You might say 'who's complaining' but Maggie left her confidence (in the romance department, anyway) back when she was a couple of dress sizes smaller.

This is a funny story, sure to strike a chord with those of us of a 'certain age'. Maggie has packed the wrong clothes for the conditions. Killer heels don't work on the beach and polyester tights aren't comfortable in the heat. Some of the one-liners are just wonderful. For example "I can feel my ass straining the pencil-skirt, tight enough that even the slip has no `slip', nailed in place between my pantyhose-covered cotton briefs and the thick-weave fabric." While she's at the conference she still has a teenage daughter and an elderly mother to contend with, both of whom give her grief in different ways.

Under all the humour lurks a wistful soul who has compared herself to others and lost confidence. It's a gentle and tender love story as Maggie comes to terms with herself and the men in her life.

It's a great little read.

Entertaining to read the erotic sub-text of business encounters from the woman's perspective. The narrator, Maggie, is a great character with a secure handle on self-deprecation, a refreshing faux-innocence about the effect she has on the men around her and appetites that match and even exceed theirs. Her sense of humour and the intensity of present experiences make this story race along, shifting smoothly between her sharp mental awareness of the nature of the business operations going on around her and her visceral reactions to the intimacies they often involve. Two other themes run alongside the central account of the ongoing business meetings: her need to do something about a hilarious episode involving her mother's misdemeanours in her retirement community and a gentle but insistent love story. Satisfying in all sorts of ways.
