Reflection
With an urgent call from his executive assistant, Kent Millar’s day is turned upside down. Away from the office to attend a Vancouver based convention, an egregious printing error made by a national magazine publisher has the marketing executive scrambling to figure out how he will smooth over the expensive error before the lucrative account jumps ship.
Focused on how to tactfully handle both the client and the magazine editor, Kent is suddenly distracted when a beautiful woman he’s met only once before, approaches him in the convention center lobby.
At a glance, the alluring and intelligent Octavia, sees a solution that may save Kent his client relationship, but it may also separate the industry leader from all of its competitors.
Indebted and aroused by Octavia’s beauty, intelligence, and humor, will Kent find a way to show is appreciation to the woman who’s in the city on important business of her own?

About the author
Cara Addison
32 books160 followersBorn and raised in Southern Ontario, Cara Addison has used drive, tenacity, ambition, and out-of-the-box thinking to ascend the Canadian corporate ladder to shatter the proverbial glass ceiling. As the CEO of a government firm, Cara prefers to be out in the trenches, working to provide solutions rather than sitting behind a desk. Over her fifteen-year career, Cara has given back to her community, supporting her philanthropic interests as she provides strategic governance on numerous boards of directors.
While Cara loves to succeed in her work, it was an impromptu challenge to herself that led her to sit down one day and write a piece of fiction that was worthy of publication. Being an avid daydreamer since childhood, she transferred her own wit and humor to the narrative and dialogue of the characters that resided in her imagination. Words poured onto the page and within weeks, she had a full-length novel with characters, events, and situations that were influenced by the people and places in her everyday life.
In typical fashion, Cara found herself submitting ‘Passion, Power, and Privilege‘ to a publisher just thirty days after Kate Callahan and Bradley Taylor materialized in her imagination. Having boldly submitted her first manuscript she began writing another while balancing the demands of work and a young family. Remarkably, Cara has managed to juggle her career, motherhood, and the creative process of writing. In the past twelve months, this literary newcomer has written and published a total five full-length novels. According to this prolific author, a sixth is in the works.
As the mother of two young daughters, Cara involves her girls as she indulges in outdoor adventures, shares her love of new travel destinations, tends to the backyard vegetable patch, and uses those fresh ingredients in her everyday cooking.
With a growing catalogue of novels, Cara uses her social media savvy to engage and interact with readers. Her playful, clever, and sometimes naughty banter resonates with male and female readers alike.
Cara’s novels include:
Passion, Power, and Privilege
Going The Distance
The Fortuitous Pen [Sequel to Going The Distance]
Every Second Weekend
Loans Lust and Lies
