At Home With Andre
by Kathleen Duhamel
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
GENRE: Contemporary Romance
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
BLURB:
New York public relations consultant
and self-proclaimed control freak Katie McDowell may have made the biggest
career mistake of her life. She’s agreed to temporarily leave her beloved
Manhattan to manage the company’s struggling New Orleans office, knowing her
biggest client is television chef Andre Thibodeaux, whose massive masculine
presence makes her feel hotter than the onset of menopause.
Finding her way in a funky new city
and earning the trust of her employees is tough enough without annoying hot
flashes, night sweats and ugly mood swings, not to mention the lingering memory
of one steamy night she shared with the big man she thinks she can’t have.
Sexy, smart, and successful, Chef
Andre has everything a man could want except the right woman, and he’s
determined to learn why Katie rejected him. To convince her to stay in
Louisiana, he’ll need to find a way to make her fall in love-with him, as well
as the vibrant southern city he calls home.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
EXCERPT:
How
Denise could prefer Artie over Andre has always been a mystery to me, because
to my way of thinking, there’s no contest. Andre is smart, successful, and as
charismatic and charming a man as I’ve ever met. He has a big, booming laugh
that draws attention. He’s hard-working and intensely loyal to his friends, not
to mention drop-dead gorgeous, with a muscular build and symmetrical features
that bring to mind Denzel Washington. To put it simply, Andre is the total
package.
I’ll
admit Artie has his own aging rock star style, although he’s not what I’d call
handsome. He and I have what can best be described as a prickly relationship,
because he is impossible to manage and unapologetically unfiltered. He tends to
shoot off his mouth without thinking, like muttering “Funk this, America” into
his mic during the live concert. His ad-libbed comment earned him the wrath of
a loud-mouthed radio talk show host who said his words represented “another rip
in the moral fabric of society.”
Artie
found it all hilarious, while I went to work overtime on damage control.
Another day in the life of doing public relations for a world famous band.
