Breaking the Boss’s Rules

Breaking the Boss’s Rules
Nina Milne

Rule #1 – Never mix business with pleasureImogen Lorrimer’s temporary new boss, Joe McIntyre, is known for his dating rules. She knows he’s completely wrong for her, so why does he insist on appearing in her dreams… naked?As they jet off to a business trip in Paris and a wedding on the sun-drenched shores of the Algarve, maybe it’s time to see if Imo can tempt him to break those infamous rules?

Perhaps he should end this interview here and now.

He’d opened his mouth to do just that when she opened her eyes, gave a little wriggle in the chair, and—wham!

An image zig-zagged across his brain—a picture of Imogen Lorrimer, standing up to wriggle her way right out of that navy skirt, shrug off the jacket and slowly unbutton the pearl buttons of her white shirt. Before shaking that dark hair free so it tumbled to her shoulders, then sitting back down on that damn red chair and crossing her legs.

A hoarse noise rasped from his throat. What the hell …? Why? Where on earth had that come from?

It was time to get a grip on this interview—and the conversation. A sigh escaped her and for a second his gaze focused on her lips. Hell, this was not good. ‘Never Mix Business and Pleasure’ was a non-negotiable rule.

Dear Reader (#ulink_6448862a-11ae-594e-960c-32c9cb929536)

I so enjoyed writing this book—hey, Montmartre, Paris, and a yurt in the Algarve … what’s not to enjoy?

But most of all I loved writing about Imo and Joe—they became totally real to me even while they drove me nuts as they fought the idea of love all the way.

Imo wanted to play it safe and Joe wanted to play by the rules. So when the sparks began to fly in the bedroom and out they—and I—were thrown in at the deep end.

I hope you enjoy seeing what they did about it!

NINA MILNE has always dreamt of writing for Mills & Boon

—ever since as a child she discovered stacks of Mills & Boon

books ‘hidden’ in the airing cupboard. She graduated from playing libraries to reading the books, and has now realised her dream of writing them.

Along the way she found a happy-ever-after of her own, accumulating a superhero of a husband, three gorgeous children, a cat with character and a real library … well, lots of bookshelves.

Before achieving her dream of working from home creating happy-ever-afters whilst studiously avoiding any form of actual housework, Nina put in time as both an accountant and a recruitment consultant. She figures the lack of romance in her previous jobs is now balancing out.

After a childhood spent in Peterlee (UK), Rye (USA), Winchester (UK) and Paris (France), Nina now lives in Brighton (UK), and has vowed never to move again!! Unless, of course, she runs out of bookshelves. Though there is always the airing cupboard.
