Aprašymas

Everyone around her marked the passage of time through celebrations of weddings, anniversaries, and graduations, measuring life success through joy in family portraits. Everyone else had a life with husbands and wives, children, and grandchildren. Moirin Garrett has a cat named Orson.

Moirin Garrett's life used to be simple to define: run the operations, keep the company intact, never let emotion interfere. After decades spent building her grandfather's Denver-based energy company into an international corporation, she's poised to be the next CEO, but the Board of Directors announced a rigorous vetting process, ostensibly to avoid nepotism. It should have been a formality, but the challenges of an environmental impact study, resolving a string of increasingly suspicious management issues, and a vindictive business associate aren't helping her pass their scrutiny.

Pulled between boardroom battles and the private ache of a life she never paused to live, Moirin must outmaneuver a charismatic, ruthless opponent who wants revenge. With her company's reputation and her chance at the CEO seat on the line, she leans on unlikely allies: a team roping cowboy and brand inspector with a devastating smile, a determined intern, and the family that defines both her life and career. As evidence mounts and enemies circle, Moirin must decide what kind of leader she'll be-and whether she's willing to risk love to hold onto power.

Crossfire is an emotionally rich novel about legacy, ethics, and the high cost of leadership-perfect for readers who love workplace drama and quiet, fierce romances.
