About this ebook
Evie Dupont, a twenty-something interior designer has it all. A prominent last name, a hundred-million-dollar trust fund, and a man or two who love her. But she doesn’t want any of it. She adds an ‘E’ at the end of her name to throw internet searchers off the scent—a conceit her twin brother, Michael, finds hilarious. And in order not to dip into the family till, she needs to rely on the one-percenters she’s been trying to purge from her life in order to keep her fledgling business afloat during the slow economy.
Add to that, Ethan Brandt, decade-plus older, brilliant tech-entrepreneur is chasing after her. He isn’t exactly a movie star, but Sullivan Pearce is. This mega-movie star/former high-school classmate pops by Evie’s Brooklyn brownstone between movie shoots for sizzling sex. And while some women might find the prospect of a secret lover titillating, Evie finds it terrifying. Sully is her secret and she is his, but secrets have a way of getting messy. Sully lives for the spotlight while she avoids it at all cost. But some secrets are too delicious to keep under wraps.
Evie is aware these first-world problems are ones many women would gladly trade with her—which is another reason she hates her life right now. Three nights a week she brings food to the local women’s shelter near her office in a renovated brownstone in DUMBO. Seeing the empty look in the women’s eyes spurs her to do more than hand out care packages, ultimately realizing using her wealth and influence to build a new shelter is worth stepping out from behind the scenes.
Will she choose Ethan’s geeky charm or Sully’s soulful declarations of love? And when it comes to love, are her choices really only between a man who makes her the center of his universe, or a man whose star is so bright everyone else dims by comparison?
Or maybe there’s another choice.

Writing and interior design have always been my dual passions. And to that end, I am delighted to share my latest book: The Next Best Thing--which brings my two loves together. It is about an interior designer in New York looking for love and getting unexpected results. If you enjoy my latest entry, feel free to look up my two previous books--Come Fly With Me and The Art of Stealing as well. I am a former English teacher and the mother of four grown children. I run my own interior design company and generally sprinkle design and art references in my books because frankly, I cannot resist! I enjoy writing breezy, lighthearted romances that explore all the wonderful aspects of women and their interior dialogues. Each of my books challenges the female protagonist to look into her soul in order to find her true self. I hope my readers will be able to see a bit of themselves in these very real characters who push themselves out of their comfort zones to spectacular results. My dream is to have my readers enjoy discovering these women as much as I've enjoyed bringing them to life.
