“Hello, Mr. Reid. What can I do for you?”
“I’ve heard that you were involved in pointing out a potential issue to one of the accountants,” Alex said.
“Oh. Yeah. I was. There were some docs going through and getting pulled that I thought were a little strange, so I figured it was a good idea to say something to someone.” Mr. Lebowitz talked almost too quickly. Like he was rushing through what he had to say so that he wouldn’t get stopped. But Alex thought he remembered having met the man before and he had been equally in a rush, so it probably wasn’t a sign of suspicious activity.
“I appreciate it. Even if there’s nothing going on, it’s better to look deeper into something and be wrong than to not look at it at all.” Alex paused, and then continued. “Can you tell me which employee was requisitioning the files?”
“Well,” the nervous voice said, “I only know because of the employee number associated with the emails. But as far as I can tell, Mr. Reid, it was Zander.”
Alex rocked back in his chair. Surely that was wrong. He’d just handed over a large part of the running of his company to Zander. He trusted him completely. There was no way that his right-hand man was skimming money from him.
He realized that he hadn’t replied.
“Right,” he said. “Well, thank you, Mr. Lebowitz. I’ll look into it.”
The other man said something that Alex didn’t hear, and he hung up the phone, setting it back on the desk a little too hard. Why did things like this always insist on happening to him? Just when he was getting close to finally having worked out a balance between work and family, another problem had to come along and get in the way. And Zander? Alex shook his head. It couldn’t be Zander. Or if it was, there was some kind of misunderstanding, and everything had been done legitimately. Alex couldn’t believe otherwise.
But hadn’t the woman who’d been with him since he’d started building his company betrayed him for Nicholas?
Nicholas couldn’t be involved in it this time, but Alex realized that he couldn’t be so trusting that he would just pretend that nothing had happened when something obviously had. Sighing, he reached for the button that would connect him to the secretary’s desk.
“Please send Zander in to me,” he ordered. “As soon as possible.”
He sat back in his chair, and waited.

Senior Advisor to the Boss

Senior Advisor to the Boss Blurb:
It’s hard to tell who has your back and who is standing behind you just long enough to stab you in it.
The Reid brothers’ lives are anything but ordinary.
Billionaire Alex Reid is trying to juggle his massive company, being a husband, father and brother, while at the same time trying to stop those who are trying to take his company over. When big money comes to play, it’s only hardball.
Mark Reid’s golf course and country club is fast becoming one of the best in the country. Faster than fast, actually. He can barely manage to keep up with the pace and the opportunities that are swinging his way. Like his brother, when work begins to consume him, will he lose focus on the girl standing beside him?
When you’re in the spotlight, there are always those who want to knock you down. The saddest thing about betrayal is that it never comes from your enemies—just from those you never suspected to be the enemy.

Note from the Author:
Thanks for reading Managing the Bosses Series!
I’ve changed the series POV slightly in by adding Mark and Alex into the mix. This is still Jamie’s story, I just felt it was time to show a few more perspectives.
I hope you’re still loving the tangled mess of the Reid family. Book 9, Senior Advisor to the Boss, is set to be the final book in the series. If fans want more, please let me know! The silent majority will win out otherwise
I always love to hear from readers and see what they are thinking of the characters. If they’d like to know more, or see more of other characters.
My contact information is on the next page!

The Recruiting Trip
Book Description:
Aspiring college athlete Aileen Nessa is finding the recruiting process beyond daunting. Being ranked #10 in the world for the 100m hurdles at the age of eighteen is not a fluke, even though she believes that one race, where everything clinked magically together, might be. American universities don’t seem to think so. Letters are pouring in from all over the country.
As she faces the challenge of differentiating between a college’s genuine commitment to her or just empty promises from talent-seeking coaches, Aileen heads to the University of Gatica, a Division One school, on a recruiting trip. Her best friend dares who to go just to see the cute guys on the school’s brochure.
The university’s athletic program boasts one of the top hurdlers in the country. Tyler Jensen is the school’s NCAA champion in the hurdles and Jim Thorpe recipient for top defensive back in football. His incredible blue-green eyes, confident smile and rock hard six pack abs mess with Aileen’s concentration.
His offer to take her under his wing, should she choose to come to Gatica, is a temping proposition that has her wondering if she might be with an angel or making a deal with the devil himself.
