As an ad designer, she puts all of her focus on her career. Now if only she wasn\u2019t so irresistibly attracted to her new client\u2019s marketing director\u2026<\/em><\/p>\n

When Lisa Harper is offered the career-defining job of creating an ad series for her largest client to date, she vows to get the work done without any distractions. That was before she met a member of their team who brings up painful memories that threaten to sidetrack her from her goals.<\/p>\n

Eric has no idea that he bears a striking resemblance to the fianc\u00e9 who dumped Lisa a few weeks before her wedding. Despite their tight deadline for finishing the project, the more he works with this attractive advertising exec, the more time he wants to spend with her.<\/p>\n

As glitches and obstacles abound, Lisa and Eric are unable to deny their instant mutual attraction, but she has no time for mistakes. Can Lisa resist taking a chance with a personal relationship when her career is on the line?<\/p>\n

\nAn Anthology of Dragon Stories<\/strong>
\nOctober, 2021<\/strong><\/p>\n

My story is titled \u201cThe Princess and the Dragon<\/strong>\u201d<\/p>\n

If you think this story is a standard handsome knight rescues damsel from fierce dragon tale, think again. Here are the first three paragraphs to give you the flavor:<\/p>\n

Suppose that, like Cyndrith, you happen to be the child of an ambitious mother joined to an insolvent father, a young lady of high birth, better than average looks, and broad but unorthodox education. As fate twists\u2014only slightly assisted by your own and Aunt Vellie\u2019s peculiar talents\u2014you catch the eye of a neighboring prince at a time when he\u2019s under pressure from the relatives to consider his duties. Your problems are solved. Right?<\/em><\/p>\n

But further suppose that you do the obvious and necessary, you snag your man, and then you wake up the next day or week or month to find the honeymoon is over and you discover that your handsome, charming husband is a terrific dancer but an incompetent prince? And worse yet, your father-in-law, overjoyed that junior is finally settling down to business, and having just enough\u00a0<\/em>mens sanus\u00a0left to realize that he\u2019s losing it, decides to retire to Bath to take the waters, leaving the kingdom in the hands of your sweet but unqualified husband.<\/em><\/p>\n

Cyndrith found the literature dealing with her particular problem scarce; the old legends insisted that everyone tended to live happily ever after, but her story looked likely to be a short, brutal tale \u2014 a leader who is hazy on the difference between cavalry and chivalry can generally expect an early and traumatic retirement.<\/em><\/p>\n

Clearly, Cyndrith will have to take care of her own rescues, including confronting a rather unusual dragon!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
