Six Weeks From Tuesday (ePub)

Two titans in the electric utility industry - Brad Stewart and Tim Fletcher - fight for control of a new company, while competing for the love of the same woman: the auburn-haired Leslie Elliott. This romantic triangle plays out against the harsh backdrop of a hostile takeover attempt, the mysterious disappearance of Fletcher's brother and the complex lives of the powerful.

Leslie Elliott, a talented public relations executive, is at first fascinated, then obsessed with her boss, the handsome and ruthless Brad Stewart. The CEO of Metro Energy, Stewart enlists Leslie to help him achieve his dream of becoming the state's utility czar. He wants to grow the size and influence of his Midwestern company to combat activists wanting to shut down utilities that rely on coal. He seeks a friendly merger with the neighboring utility, Statewide Power & Light, successfully run by the recently-widowed Tim Fletcher.

Stewart, a longtime womanizer, takes Leslie with him on a trip to meet with Fletcher - a gentile business leader with a reputation for integrity. Stewart wants Leslie to help him with Fletcher but also hopes to establish a sexual relationship with her, even though he is married.

Fletcher is charmed by Leslie but ends up angrily rejecting Stewart's offer. In response, Stewart enlists a team of East Coast merger consultants to help him go after Statewide and oust Fletcher. As the battle heats up, Leslie finds herself growing closer to Fletcher and questioning her feelings for Stewart, whose motto is to win at all costs.

The colorful cast of characters includes Leslie's soon-to- be ex-husband, a steamy female consultant with few scruples and a inquisitive newspaper reporter with a passion for the beaches of Brazil and the country's national drink. This intriguing, sexy look at big business is filled with surprises and plot twists that will keep the reader guessing to the end.
