Contemporary Disaster Romance

Blurb:
Carrie Hanson is in love with a different species: Trent, a
pampered, uber-rich socialite who’s also her boss. Everyone keeps telling her
it’s a train wreck looking to happen, but her heart wants what it wants. So
despite the billion and one reasons not to, Carrie commits to this
inter-species relationship. But while she's off being trained for her new job
responsibilities, a beautiful ex fiancée is working hard to get Trent back and
Carrie fired.
Excerpt:
Carrie glanced up at Trent. “Can I have one of your
business cards?”
He handed one over, curious why Carrie wanted it. She
flipped it over and wrote, These bills
were given to Miss Claire as an act of charity. They are hers to spend.
She handed Trent the card. “Sign it, please.”
He signed the card and Carrie presented it to the old
woman.
Her eyes rounded as she read it. “You know my name.”
“We’ve talked before.”
“Right. You’re the nice girl who pointed out how much
cheaper it would be for me to buy a monthly card instead of paying the daily
rate. I appreciated your advice. I’ve been able to buy better food and even had
money saved up so, when I got sick, I could get well enough to keep working.”
She patted Carrie’s arm. “I’m glad you got yourself a good man. You deserve
it.”
Carrie glanced up at him and smiled. “He is a good man.”
She whispered in the old woman’s ear. Whatever she said
cause the woman’s forehead to furrow.
She thrust the bills into Carrie’s hand. “I appreciate the
thought, but I can’t take your money. But thank you both. You’re good people,
and the world could use more like you.”
To his shock, Carrie didn’t argue. She only hugged the
woman. “You are good people, too.”
Half the crowded train watched the fiasco. Great! Not only
had the old woman rejected his act of charity, but a mob of commuters had
witnessed his failed attempt at being a “good person.” His grandmother had to
be thrashing in her grave.
