Zander's Firecracker


Ember Flint - 2020
    34-year-old, strait-laced, straight-faced Zander Markos is a lawyer who never cracks a smile if he can help it. As one of the heirs to the ubiquitous and all-powerful Markos Inc’s empire, no one could argue with him if he’d say he has no time to even think of having fun, let alone actually do such a mundane thing. In light of all of this, it remains a mystery why his brother thought it would be a good idea to put him —a no-nonsense, micromanaging, security freak— in charge of overseeing the preparations for the company’s July 4th retreat and beach party at their estate on Lake Tahoe. And yet here he is, neck-deep in organizing funny family-friendly activities within an inch of their lives, until there’s no fun left whatsoever in them.Of course, any Independence Day party worth its name’s got to have a firework display and the Markos must have only the absolute best. And therein lies the problem, because ‘the absolute best’ this time is not what Zander expected.24-year-old Alexandra ‘Alexa’ Tinley may be short compared to most kids, let alone adults, but she’s a tough spitfire through and through. She’s been ‘one of the boys’ all of her life and still has the mouth and scrapping abilities to prove it. She could not tidy a room if her life depended on it because she’s in constant motion and wherever she goes, disorder rules, but when it comes to her art no one could say she’s not the absolute best. A man and a woman can’t get any more different than these two: he’s order, she’s chaos, he’s ice, she’s fire, he’s Scotch neat and she’s… nitroglycerine, and yet they can’t look away. The explosion is inevitable.This little voluptuous nuclear firecracker might have ‘handle-with-care’ written all over her, but she’s still the spark he was missing and he’s the tether she didn’t know she needed. Dear Reader: Man, these two are gonna butt head!But don’t worry: it won’t last much since Zander and Alexa are only safe from each other if they stay away from each other, which they don’t, because… duh: this is one of my books so that’s never gonna happen!This is a quick, fun, steamy novella.Here’s what you get is:NO-cheating NO OW/OM drama A passion that’s gonna set the summer sky on fire with a white-hot display you won’t forget.As always, your sugary shot of guaranteed Happily-Ever-After is included in the kit, but do bring your own safety-goggles! *Please note that ‘Zander’s Firecracker is part of ‘The Holiday Firecrackers’collection of standalone books brought to you by some of your favorite insta-love romance authors out there.
