Dr. Pierce Rossi has been the star of my steamiest fantasies since I was seventeen.
He’s the star of most women’s fantasies, maybe even my own mother’s.
He even has my father eating out of the palm of his hand.
He’s a rich doctor who rides a motorcycle.
So it shouldn’t be surprising that he’s a notorious ladies’ man too,
…and fourteen years older than me.
You do the math. I sure have. Over and over again.
It all adds up to one simple conclusion: He’s off-limits.
Or at least he is until my father makes me angry enough not to care anymore.
Seducing Pierce is nothing more than my secret little middle finger to everyone.
At least that’s all it’s supposed to be… Until it isn’t anymore. $0.99 on Kindle.

Paul Neustrom the author of “Death of a Yellow Page Salesman”
Having advised and consulted over 10,000 business owners never prepared me for hitting the lowest point in my career. For over 40 years working mostly in marketing and advertising in yellow page directories, I found Google had effectively destroyed my career. Recovering from that was not an instant process but I describe the struggles and triumphs of that journey in this book. My mission now is to help entrepreneurs and business owners to dominate in marketing through: KillingItOnline.com
Among the vast array of self-help books that promote their own methods of being successful, very few speak of an understanding of effective communication and why these principles work. It is transformational when we understand the way we communicate with others, which is oftentimes governed by how we talk to ourselves. Marketing is my specialty, and I am writing this book to show how the power of words will change your life.
Through this book, you will learn how to grow and transform your business and life by gaining inspiration from the small, still voice of God. Going from lost to found is something; not only business owners do, but that we can do for our own lives. Filled to overflowing is a whole other story.

Love is quickly becoming my least favorite four-letter word.
I let a girl into my heart once, and she nearly destroyed me.
The last time I saw her she was in the back seat of her father’s car, leaving me forever.
No goodbye.
No mercy.
That was ten years ago.
Now the sexy vixen from my past is back in town looking to hire a consultant.
This is my way back in.
But not for redemption or a second chance.
For sticky-sweet vengeance.
Her business is the most important thing to her, and I can take it down in one fell swoop—or waste her time trying.
If she doesn’t take me down first with curves that make me pace the floor at night.
But everything changes when I meet him.
Her ten-year-old son.
I believe in coincidences, but this is too much.
He has my eyes and my middle name, but she swears I’m not the father.
Trusting her means dropping walls I’ve spent a decade building trying to keep her out. Unfortunately for me?
It’s always been her.

My Nashville dreams of making it big on the country music scene shattered to pieces, but I received no sympathy from my brother.

Only I didn’t plan on running into Meadow Boyd as the new mayor.
One look into her baby blue eyes and I knew—I’d work real hard to make her dreams and plans come true in more ways than one.

And possibly lose my job.
How dare he?
It’s pretty simple, though. Don’t date students.

Much to my surprise, he’s quickly becoming my star pupil, which means he gets more of my time than necessary.

And the best is even though he’s older than me, he’s more than willing to let me teach him a few new tricks.
Let’s just hope we don’t get caught. Free on Kindle.
