“You’re a true-blue prick, Reid Maxwell.”
“Finally, something we agree on,” I say, leaning back in my
leather chair, the phone at my ear. A real estate investor who just lost
his ass on the line. “And my client likes that I’m a prick. It works for him,
not you. The thirty-day notice stands. We’re taking over that complex
September first.” I hang up, my gaze lifting to the doorway to find my pain
in the ass sister standing in the doorway, holding a garment bag.

“Forget it, Cat,” I say, tossing the pen in my hand onto the desk and
leaning forward. “I’m not going to the party.”
“You have to go to the party,” she says, hanging the bag behind my door.
“You’re being auctioned off for charity.” She stops in front of my desk, her
dress a sparkling mix of pink and purple, while her blonde hair is draped
over her shoulders. My sister is a beautiful pain in the ass. “Tonight,” she
adds, stopping in front of me. “It happens tonight, and you’ve known about
it for two months.”
“I said no about ten times.”
“This is me doing PR for the firm. It’s a big deal with lots of press. And
you need good PR since our dear uncle and father got in all that legal
trouble, because in case you didn’t know Maxwell, Maxwell, and Maxwell
is a law firm.”
“That dear uncle, wasn’t our uncle, but a ‘friend’ of dad’s, he made us
call him uncle as kids. And I use the term friend lightly, considering he
committed crimes while working for us which is why he’s long gone and so
is the scandal he created. And thankfully, since he recovered from his
stroke, the only thing our father’s guilty of is being an ass.”
“Like you?”
“Yes,” I agree without hesitation. “I’m an ass, but not like him.”
“Your own very special version of asshole,” she says. “Right. Check.”
I ignore that remark that. Where Cat is concerned, I deserve it and with
growing regret. “Cat.”
“Yes?”
“You write true crime novels and your ‘Cat Does Crime’ column. Exactly
why are you heading this PR operation for a problem two-years old? You
don’t work here. I tried to get you to work here, but you refused.”
“You tried to bully me into doing what you wanted, yes,” she agrees.
“And I’m heading your PR efforts because obviously, you cannot. Asshole
and PR are not two terms that fit together.”
“Well then, how does having me auctioned off help?”
“Women foolishly love arrogant asses,” she says. “You’ll get big bids and
attention for the firm. Bids for charity which means good press. That
means, we hope, good press about you and the firm. And since I know what
motivates you, good press means more money for the firm and you.
The
biggest names in New York City will be present. I’ve already said all of
this. If Reese wasn’t married, he’d do it for his firm, too. It’s the most
eligible bachelor thing, and as you know, at thirty-eight, you’re still a
bachelor.”
