“I’d love to help.” I turn to Mrs. Rivers. “I know how to be a girl when I have to. You don’t need to worry. Stella will get me all set with clothes and things.”
“I will. She’s a knockout when we get her into real clothes.”
“I’m not worried,” she tells me with a smile. I cock an eyebrow at her and she laughs. “Okay, well maybe I was a little worried. I trust Jane, though. If she thinks you’re the right choice, then so do I.”
We go over a few more details and agree that I’ll be introduced as the daughter of one of her college friends who just moved to town and is looking for a job. Lindsey—as she asked me to call her—tells me that she’d like me to attend a cocktail party at her home on Friday to meet everyone and get things started. I’ll have two days to transform into a socialite. I hope it’s enough time.
I spend the rest of the day doing profiles on all the players and staff. I know who they are since I’m a fan, but this is the more in-depth stuff. I’m looking for a reason that one of them would want to sabotage the team. Nothing jumps out at me right away and I plan on taking everything home with me to continue working.
Stella has other plans. She brings our friend Darcy to my office, and the two of them insist on taking me shopping. I balk a little, but I know it’s necessary and I do want to go. I just can’t give up my tomboy image, even in front of my friends. I let them take me to the mall and I end up with some very fancy and very sexy dresses. I insisted on some jeans and casual clothes, because I can’t always be dressed up, especially if I attend pre-season games. They relented, although the casual clothes are all designer as well.
I fall asleep thinking about which dress I’ll wear. I can’t remember ever doing that before in my life. Of course, I‘ve never gone to a party with Zack Taylor before. I know he’s way out of my league and I’ve got to date Kevin Donaldson. That doesn’t stop me from dreaming of the man with dark hair and eyes once I close my eyes.
About the Author
Crystal Perkins has always been a big reader, but she never thought she would write her own book, until she did. She lives in Las Vegas, where you can find her running author events and selling books at conventions when she isn’t reading, buying too many Sherlock t-shirts online or finding a place to put all of her Pop! figurines. A mac and cheese connoisseur, she travels the country looking for the perfect version, while attending book conventions and signings as a cover for her research. The Griffin Brothers series are all International Best Sellers, and she’s thankful to all the readers who made that happen!
