Synopsis:
Arrogant, brooding, domineering, possessive, dangerously handsome, and a playboy. These are all of the characteristics on Rebecca Gellar’s Run-Like-Hell list for men, but she’s about to meet the man who’s the epitome of these and more…
After breaking off her engagement with Hollywood actor Miles Storm, Rebecca is ready for a change of scenery in her life and in her bed. So when the opportunity to work for StoneHaven Publishing, one of New York City’s most respectable publishing empires presents itself, Rebecca doesn’t hesitate moving to the Big Apple.
Convinced she can show the owner of StoneHaven Publishing that she has the "right stuff,” Rebecca agrees to a six month trial as the personal assistant to the owner’s playboy son, Nicholas StoneHaven. This is her big chance. If she can just get through these six months without strangling Nicholas with his Armani tie, she'll be okay – easier said than done. Nicholas is the last person Rebecca thought she’d find herself pining for, especially when he hits every category under her list.
Get ready for a battle of the sexes…

My thoughts:
This is a story that literally starts and ends with bang (involving a fist and a knee). Rebecca is the type of character most people can identify with: fresh from a break-up with her ex-fiance, she decides to make a new start clear across the country in New York (much to her mother's dismay). While she doesn't seem to be self-conscious, Rebecca has some curves, but again, that doesn't really factor into the story overly much. During the flight to New York, Rebecca encounters Nicholas (heir to the StoneHaven publishing company, and bachelor extraordinaire) and the two share a private moment. During Rebecca's first night in New York, she's at a trendy club with her best friend Carol, who is meeting with a potential client when Nicholas shows up. An even steamier private moment occurs, but Rebecca comes to her senses and beats feet out the club and out of Nicholas' life...or did she?
This is a hilarious first part to this e-serial and one I would definitely recommend!
