Blurb
There are worse things a girl can do to get a boost up the career ladder.
Alice Brown has just landed her dream job as property manager at Davenport Manor, a British stately home. It’s only a nine-month contract to cover maternity leave, but it will provide her with the vital experience she needs to progress in her chosen career.
However, her dream job soon threatens to become a nightmare when she discovers her boss, Jeremy Davenport, in a compromising position. Her shock is exacerbated when Jeremy, far from being embarrassed or apologetic about what happened, manipulates the situation until somehow, she’s the one in the wrong. He and his best friend, Ethan Hayes, the head of security at Davenport Manor, give her an ultimatum. Faced with the possibility of losing her job and endangering her future prospects, Alice reluctantly agrees to their indecent proposal.
When the dust settles, Alice comes to the conclusion that playing their kinky games isn’t such a bad thing, after all. But what happens when she thinks she’s falling for both men?

Excerpt
Alice
took a deep breath, in through her nose, and out through her mouth.
Repeated the process once more. Then, realising she could sit there
all day doing it and not feel any calmer, she forced herself to step
out of the car and close and lock the door.
She
bent to peer into the wing mirror of the vehicle and checked her hair
and make-up. Satisfied, she straightened, then turned on her heel and
walked quickly across the driveway to the great house before her
nerve failed her.
Davenport
Manor was currently open for visitors, so she walked in through the
front door and was met by a smiling elderly lady.
“Can
I help you?” the woman asked kindly.
“Yes,
please.” Alice twisted her hands together nervously. “I’m here
to see Mr Davenport. I’m here for an interview for the property
manager’s role.”
“Yes,
of course,” the woman replied, “that’s today, isn’t it?
Follow me; I’ll take you to Mr Davenport’s office. But just hang
on one second.”
She
ducked through the doorway into the next room and spoke with her
colleague. Alice guessed she was letting her co-worker know she’d
be gone for a few minutes. A few seconds later, she was back. “Okay,
follow me, Miss…”
“Brown,”
Alice said, then fell in behind the other woman as she led her to Mr
Davenport’s office, and the interview that could change her life
forever. It was hardly surprising that she was shaking like a leaf.
Alice
quickly became disorientated as their journey took several twists and
turns along dim corridors—their blinds drawn to protect paintings,
tapestries, and furniture from the sunlight—and up a flight of
stairs. She had a few seconds to worry about finding her way if she
was lucky enough to get the job, then her guide stopped outside a
door and turned around.
“Here
you go, Miss Brown. Mr Davenport’s office. Good luck with your
interview.”
Alice
smiled and thanked the elderly woman, then smoothed down her skirt,
which also conveniently wiped the nervous sweat off her hands. She
stood up straight, gave herself a mental pep talk about being more
than qualified for the role, and knocked on the door.
“Enter.”
Alice
knew that voice could only belong to Jeremy Davenport. The posh
accent, and the fact he’d said “enter” instead of “come in”,
screamed money and an upper-class upbringing. Alice was suddenly
desperately aware of her broad Midlands accent and lowly background,
despite the fact she’d worked her backside off to get into a decent
university in order to gain a Bachelor of Arts degree and then a
Master’s degree. No matter what she sounded like, or what her past
was, she had all the skills necessary to do the job she was about to
be interviewed for.
She
realised she’d left rather a long pause before opening the door,
and turned the handle before the occupants of the room thought they
were about to interview some kind of simpleton who couldn’t follow
a simple instruction.
Fixing
a polite—but hopefully not inane—smile onto her face, Alice
stepped into Jeremy Davenport’s office. Her first thought—which
certainly did nothing to help her nerves—was good God, he’s
hot.
