    About this ebook

    Gracelyn Moore just started a new company. After rumors started swirling at her old job that she was sleeping with a client that she would never touch in a million years, she decided that it was time to move on. She just wants to focus on her future, on getting her new party planning company with her best friend off the ground. Then she gets hired by Dash. 

    Dash Montgomery is a successful software designer who thought he had everything that he needed. Then he sees Gracelyn. One look and he's sure that he's found his one. A lifetime of working with computers has left him unsure of how to approach her so he does what he thinks is logical and hires her. 

    Gracelyn keeps telling herself that she can't be with Dash. She can't have rumors of her sleeping with her clients plaguing her new business but there's something about him that Gracelyn can't get out of her head. 

    Will Dash be able to convince Gracelyn that they're meant to be?

      Hungry For Dash - Shaw Hart

      Chapter 1

      Gracelyn

      I forget how crazy the holidays are.

      Every year I think that I’m going to be on top of things this time and every year, I get swamped.

      I can probably blame this year’s chaos on starting a new job. Bella, my best friend, and I have been working hard to get our new company, Ivy and Fern Events, off the ground. We had been working for rival event planning companies for years. We were both miserable and one drunken night, I had suggested that we start our own company.

      She had surprised me by agreeing right away. Two weeks later, we had turned in our resignations and were officially self-employed.

      Bella and I have always been impulsive. It started when we were little kids. We tried hula dancing before we abandoned that to try our hands at karate. From there, we decided we could be bakers. The list went on and on.

      We could occasionally talk our other friend, Harry, into the shenanigans too. Well, Bella could talk him into it. He’s been in love with her since he first saw her and I know that he would do anything that Bella asked.

      By the time we graduated college, we had changed our majors probably a dozen times between us. The only thing that saved us, was remembering how much we liked to organize pretend weddings and tea parties when we were young.

      Party planning was our calling.

      I wish that we could have worked together from the get go but the job economy was small and no place was hiring two fresh from college employees.

      For three years, I worked my butt off, trying to get the best clients and events, to rise up the corporate ladder. I was doing it too. Rising up the ranks, getting more clients, better jobs, the whole shebang.

      Then the rumors started.

      I had this client, Joshua Markle. He was a real jerk. Always flirting with me, making inappropriate remarks and comments. I had asked him to stop multiple times. I had requested that I be moved to a different event so that I could get away from him. All were denied.

      When Joshua grabbed my ass one night while I was working at the event center where his party was being held, I had snapped. I slapped him and stormed out, returning to work to tell my boss about it. He hadn’t seemed to care but when I threatened a lawsuit, he had moved me to a different event.

      Joshua was angry and he started talking shit about me. Saying that I was throwing myself at him and it became too much so he had requested a different planner. My boss hadn’t corrected him, not wanting to piss off a big client.

      The rumors and dirty glances started to run rampant. Soon, I couldn’t walk into a room without conversations stopping short. Clients started to switch to other party planners and between the dirty looks from my coworkers and the hostile work environment from my own boss, my love of party planning was almost nonexistent.

      That was why I had gotten drunk with Bella. That was why I had suggested we start our own business. It was my only chance to get out of my current situation. After all, who would hire a planner who had been dogged by rumors like mine?

      Bella and I were like night and day. Bella is a dark haired, blue eyed, bombshell. She’s
