How to Solve a Murder with a Billionaire (EBOOK)

Seymour

I have rules when it comes to dating.

No coffee dates, no smiling, no personal questions—and for goodness' sake, never be alone with an attractive woman. 

So naturally, when I volunteer for the board of the local art gallery, I think I’m safe. I’ve dealt with egos before, and I certainly know how to stand my ground. But then there’s Mandy.

Her disdain is palpable from our very first encounter, and for some unfathomable reason, it pulls at something deep within me. She’s got talent, there's no denying that, and maybe it’s her fiery passion for art that riles me up. Or perhaps it’s that spark of resentment I can see in her eyes every time I dare speak. I shouldn’t care, but I do.

Twenty-four hours in, all my rules are crashing down.

Mandy

I throw myself into my work at the gallery like it’s my lifeline. It’s all I have left to anchor me.

Then Seymour Black struts in, all polished and self-assured, and it feels like a match is struck inside me. I can’t stand him. I hate the way he undermines everything I’ve worked for and acts as if he’s here to save the gallery from its own inadequacies and failures.

Yet, every time I’m near him, my body betrays me. My heart races and my hands shake as if he’s some kind of siren, drawing me in despite the loathing I have for his attitude. Can you really both loathe and desire someone at the same time?

Well, it seems I’m doing just that. And when the storm hits—a local artist’s sudden heart attack, potentially murder—I realize I have to team up with the one person I’ve sworn to despise.
