Publisher's summary

She's Falling for Him...And She Doesn't Even Know He's Filthy Rich!

Bijou Carter is a gorgeous, full-bodied, and warm writer from New York. Her social life is going nowhere in the dead-end town she just moved to. Her frenemy, Greta, is her only source of entertainment. That is, until she meets Sam, a flirtatious, sensual man with a passion for dancing.

Bijou takes an instant disliking to Sam and the excessive forwardness he's learned from his life growing up in Philly. When a thug tries to grope Bijou, Sam springs to the rescue. Bijou begins to notices that Sam is actually rather brave...and quite attractive.

One night together and she finds herself smitten...and pregnant. She tries to reach out to Sam but can't seem to get a hold of him. He's having reservations of his own. Sam's worried that Bijou has figured out his secret: he's not just a wealthy guy; he's a billionaire. Bijou, of course, has no idea why he's pulled away from her. All she knows is there's a baby on the way, and she's starting to fall for its father.

Trust me, it ain't about the money....

Huh

The story ends with an necessary cliffhanger. The short story would’ve ended up better if it had a full-blown conclusion of both characters ending up together versus a question at the end, simply it needed more. If she’s going to do you her own narration she’s going to need to work on her breathing understanding different tones for her characters and not be so monotone. There’s a lot of potential in the story but it falls short.
