[SIX MONTHS LATER] The family piled out of the limousine. Baby seats and gear carried by a happy Conner, Ian, and Andre. Merina noticed her father wave at a man in a wheelchair who was being pushed by a female attendant. That was Ana’s father. He appeared to be headed into the house from somewhere in the garden. Today was Ana’s wedding and the hive of action revealed how close the ceremony was to take place. Merina and Conner had to hurry to get ready. The two grandfathers were taking care of their two little bundles, which worried Merina a little. Merina caught sight of their fathers showing off the babies to everyone who showed any remote interest. With that, the wedding planner whisked her and Conner off for the final preparations. Hair, makeup, dress, champagne, photographs became a whirlwind of excitement and activity. Security was exceptional, with news of Jeff’s wedding and news leaking about his new album. “It’s a perfect day for your weddin
Games Lady Billionaires Play CHAPTER 1-GAMES JUST STARTED–SUMMER
Merina MacGregor, now going by the name Summer McNeil, sat eating lunch with her friend, Ana Davies. They knew each other from boarding school. Since then, they’d confided everything in each other. Summer glared at her food as she stabbed her salad. She brushed her short, dark hair away from her cheek. “I don’t recognize him anymore. He’s not the guy I remember. He’s a complete asshat for a boss. It’s been a week, and he’s a slave driver.” “We’re talking Conner O’Keefe?” Ana asked. She set her fork down and watched Summer with a look of concern over her dark-rimmed glasses. Summer teased her about looking like the young librarian all the boys at school would chase. Ana didn’t see what Summer saw. “Well, it’s not his father. His father calls to change what Conner has ordered. Then I must remind him to take it up with Conner. Because he hired me to work for Conner. I don’t feel right getting in their problems. Add to that, Conner hasn’t recognized me.
Games Lady Billionaires Play CHAPTER 2–HE WILL BE IN CONTROL–CONNER
Conner waited for his personal assistant to return from lunch. She arrived on time. She’d familiarized herself with the office within a week. He’d been there for two months and didn’t know the office layout. He had to compensate for his father’s incessant demands. A month ago, he’d foisted a girlfriend on him. The woman was his father’s friend’s daughter, whom he started working with earlier this year. She was pretty enough, and she fell into bed with Conner far too easy for his liking, but it scratched an itch. If he was careful, she wouldn’t trap him into anything he didn’t want. Every time he spent time with her, his instincts told him something was off. He just didn’t know what was wrong with the situation and his father became offended on behalf of his new business partner when Conner mentioned he wasn’t interested in her. So, he’d been taking his new personal assistant with him to functions to stick it to his father. But Conner cou
Games Lady Billionaires Play CHAPTER 3-HE WANTS HE GETS-SUMMER
When Summer left Conner’s office, she had several things she needed to manage. Finally, she left the message from Conner’s father on his desk, informing her she was uninvited to the business dinner. She pointed it out to Conner and told him she didn’t want to be the reason Conner had with his father. Could he speak to him and clear this up? Then tell her what they’d decided. The look on Conner’s face was one Summer was glad hadn’t focused on her, but his father. It wasn’t an expression she’d ever seen him wear before, and it added to how much he’d changed from the pre-teen Conner she remembered. Where did the boy who teased her for having a sunburned nose when he hid her hat in the hollow of a tree one summer afternoon? Or the boy who insisted they dance to the music filtering out of the conservatory one evening when her parents were hosting an evening event? That had happened before their mothers passed away in a car accident. Summer re

[CHAPTER STARTS AT THE END OF THE MEETING BETWEEN CONNER AND SUMMER IN HIS OFFICE] “Before I go, here are your messages in priority. However, this one is about the event and I’m afraid it’s addressed to me, but I’m not able to respond to it. I think you may do more and faster about it.” Summer leaned over and placed several messages in front of Conner and tried to broach the subject of one. Conner tried not to watch the low neckline of her blouse fall forward. Damn, the woman had on a lacy pale blue bra under her pale blue blouse. Conner wanted to know if her panties matched her bra. He bet they did, and it would only get better if she wore those thigh-high stockings. He’d love the feel of them on his thighs as he took her. Now he needed to get a grip on himself. How could he work like this? “Who’s it from and about what?” Conner thanked his lucky stars. The connection between his brain and mouth was intact, and he could still conduct a business discussion with

“What do you mean?” Ian said. He tried to sound stern as he demanded Conner give him an explanation about what he meant. “I mean, she can do her job fine. She does it without complaint so far. She’s never late or gives me excuses why she hasn’t completed something. Ms. McNeil doesn’t ask prying questions like Gabriella. But she’s a distraction by just existing in the space I breathe. Before they cross too many boundaries, I can’t have her around much longer.” Ian could hear Conner struggling to find a reason to fire her and failing. Conner didn’t hear his words and how smitten he was with his little personal assistant. “Does she know that?” There it was. Conner felt attracted to the woman. Ian couldn’t deny her captivating aura. Age hindered him, not Conner, from pursuing a woman so young. Gabriella was asking prying questions. Ian wanted to learn more about that. “What was Gabriella asking?” Ian suspected some things weren’t as they seemed. But he
Games Lady Billionaires Play CHAPTER 6–LAST MINUTE SHOPPING–SUMMER
Summer slipped out of the office an hour early. It gave her little time to shop Conner wanted, or she needed. She wasn’t a fool; she worked smarter, not harder. Summer had to decide whether to buy everything herself before the plane departed. Then she’d hire someone to do it. Or use her family’s personal shopper to her advantage. All she needed to do was call the stores, set up for her personal shopper to pick the items up and pay over the phone with the card Conner gave her for the expenses. Just two stores refused her request. She’d have to go in person. Thankfully, one shop was in the same mall as the dress shop she needed. When she arrived at the dress shop, Summer had every she needed. She lacked patience for an encounter with Gabriella in the store. Summer’s hand was on the door handle when she noticed Gabriella inside. Cursing under her breath, she had to do some quick thinking. She pulled her phone from her coat pocket and called
Games Lady Billionaires Play CHAPTER 7–FATHERS DON’T KNOW BEST–SUMMER
Summer was in traffic when her father called. With a sigh, she told the car assistant to answer the call. “Good evening, Father. To what do I owe the pleasure of your call?” He never called if he didn’t have a reason to call. Andre MacGregor changed after his first wife died. “I don’t appreciate your lip, young lady. Where are you that you’re acting like that?” “I’m standing on the intersection of Main Street and Jefferson Boulevard trying to find a date.” “Merina MacGregor. You better not be…” “Be what, father? Oh, please. I’m joking. I’m stuck at a traffic light and I’m behind the wheel. What do you want, Father? I’m unable to talk to you.” Summer knew that she’d made a mistake when she said that, because it gave her father a chance to lecture her on whatever problem her stepmother imagined Merina’s mere existence caused. All Merina needed to do was breathe in Lillian MacGregor’s direction to do something worthy of a lectur
