On the Dotted Line

Written by Lauren Brown

Jemma Brooks

The day I've been waiting for is finally here. In a few short hours, the board will announce the candidates with a chance at being promoted to partner. My mentor has promised me I'm on the shortlist to fill one of the three spots and become the youngest partner in the law firm's history. I'm not worried about the competition. At least until the announcement is made and the rules are changed. Now I'm fighting to win a single spot, and only one associate has the skills to beat me. Brandon Stick-up-his-ass Roberts.

Anyone else would be nervous heading into work today, but I'm not just anyone. There's no question I'll be promoted to partner this year, and today's announcement is just the first step. But my perfectly mapped-out plan is thrown out the window when I find out there will only be one new partner this year. I won’t let my reaction to the news crack my well-honed corporate exterior. Inside, however, I'm prepping for a fight with the human tornado with the desk across from mine. If she's somehow gotten it in her head that she can beat me, Lawyer Barbie better prepare to be disappointed.

On the Dotted Line is the prequel to the Suddenly Us series of interconnected standalones. Each book can be read independently, but the series is best read in order to understand each character's full story.
