Connectivity Book Synopsis:
Overachiever Mary-Kate Grant (who is indeed named after an Olsen Twin)
has followed every rule to the letter to pursue her dream of working in TV
programming. Ripping a page from the “hard work pays off” playbook, she
takes an assistant level job at a Chicago sports network to break into the
industry.
MK has no time or desire for a relationship right now—she is totally focused
on her career and being independent, unlike the other women in her family.
But MK’s plans are run through the
shredder when she finds herself working
shredder when she finds herself working
for William Cumberland, a British media mogul who made his fortune with
Connectivity, a social media site. William blows into Chicago just like the
winds off Lake Michigan and purchases the group of networks MK works for—
and makes her his personal assistant in the process.
Suddenly MK finds her career plans in jeopardy. William makes her question
everything she has ever thought and has the uncanny ability to see right
through her. And for the first time in her life, MK finds herself not only
questioning what she wants for her career but for her personal life as well…
Excerpt:
We arrive at the hotel, one of the most expensive and
sleekest in Chicago. William escorts me to the bar, which is
gorgeous and sophisticated and just perfect for a glass of wine.
We grab a spot near the open fireplace, and William helps me take
off his coat. I sink down into a cozy chair breathe an
appreciative sigh.
“This is so much better,” I say gratefully. “Thank you for
the rescue, William.”
He studies me for a moment as he sinks down into the chair
across from me. “You’re an old soul, aren’t you?” he asks slowly.
I watch as the light from the fireplace flickers across
William’s amazing cheekbones. “Just like you.”
William stares back at me, but I already know what he is
thinking. That I get him like nobody else does. I can’t explain
it, but it is a feeling I have, one that is so strong and so
powerful I know I’m right.
And he understands me better than anyone ever has, too.
“Welcome back, Mr. Cumberland,” the waitress says, dropping
down two cocktail napkins on the coffee table in-between us and
interrupting my thoughts. “The usual?”“No.” William looks at me. “What would you like to drink,
Mary-Kate?”
“A glass of pinot noir sounds really nice,” I say.
“Then I would like a bottle of your best pinot noir please,”
he says.
The waitress nods and then leaves.
“Hmmm. ‘Welcome Back?’” I say slowly. “Do you regularly
bring the ladies to this bar, William?”
Jesus did I just ask him that?
William studies me. “Would you like to know, Mary-Kate?”
“Only if you care to answer, William,” I say, matching him.
And my pulse jumps again as I wait for his reply. Here we
go. We say we are employee/boss. But we don’t speak to each other
like employee/boss. And now there is this damn undercurrent of
attraction, of sexual tension that I like way too much, and I
feel like my whole career, my dreams, and my future could go up
in flames because I am playing with a match here.
But at this moment, in this bar, I don’t care.
About the Author:
Aven Ellis has been writing fiction since she was sixteen. She studied communications at a large
Midwestern university, and after graduation, Aven worked as a reporter for a community
newspaper, followed by a stint at a public relations agency.
But writing about city council meetings and restaurant franchises was not as much fun as writing
for young women trying to figure out their careers and potential boyfriends. So Aven got herself
a job in television that allowed her to write at night. Connectivity
