Unlikely couples, matchmakers, and moral dilemmas are the heart of the Best Intention series, a collection of novellas set in a business environment where negotiations and deals turn personal… The Sweetest Deal is Book One in this series. Ian Woodford is about to close the most important business transaction of his life and realize his father’s dream—all he has to do is agree to one request: give the man who’s controlling the deal a grandchild. The proposition is every level of wrong, but an arrangement like this would honor his father’s memory, and while Ian can never replace the child he lost, it would give him an opportunity for another child, this time without the encumbrance of a wife. But the more time he spends with C.C., the more he realizes he wants her for more than a way to get a deal and a child… C.C. aka Catherine Crowell gave up on dreams of a family after Mr. Worse-Than-Wrong broke her heart. Hiding behind spreadsheets, and oversized suits, she’s determined to show her business-mogul father she’s capable of taking over his company and won’t be fooled by smooth talking liars again. Her work has become her life, and while she’d love a child, that’s not going to happen. When Ian Woodford, the company’s newest business partner, shows interest in her, C.C.’s more than a little suspicious, and determined to find out if his intentions are real, and what she plans to do about it if they are…or aren’t. It’s going to get messy and once the truth come out, as it always does, it’s going to take more than one matchmaker to get the sweetest deal. BONUS: Included with this ebook is the first chapter of Strangers Like Us, Book 1 of the Reunion Gap series.

Richard Morgan can’t believe his father is considering a rival candy company’s offer to buy out the family business that he loves. Though the confections division is tiny compared to the family’s other ventures, it’s close to his heart. Maybe too close, since the thought of losing it feels like losing his mother all over again. Convinced it’s the best way to continue the Morgan legacy, his father offers Richard control of the company if he’ll secure the family name with a marriage. After a messy, public divorce, marriage is the last thing Richard wants to consider, but according to his father, it’s the only way. Yvette Cruz is the beautiful, savvy mergers and acquisitions rep charged with brokering the buyout agreement between her company and Morgan Confectioners, and Richard Morgan is the only thing standing between her and the promotion she desperately wants. She came from nothing and worked her way to the top of her field, so she’s not about to let his refusal to cooperate stop her from getting what she wants. Corporate rivalry gives way to an unwise attraction when the two meet and spend a night together that ultimately changes their lives forever. Two enemies find love, but a betrayal threatens to tear them apart. Forgiveness and redemption can lead to everything they’ve ever wanted, but some things can’t be forgotten.

Sweet Deal, Bitter Landscape brings us to the mid-2000s, when the Tanzanian government struck a deal with a foreign investor to convert more than 20,000 hectares of long-settled coastal land to establish a sugarcane plantation. Ten years on, the deal was abruptly abandoned. Popularly deemed a case of hubristic global development, critics classified this project another in a line of failed modern resource grabs. Youjin B. Chung argues such tidy accounts conceal myriad and profound implications: not only how gender, history, and culture shaped the project's trajectory, but also how, even in its stalled state, the deal upended social life on the land by setting in motion incomplete processes of development and dispossession. With rich ethnographic detail and visual storytelling, Sweet Deal, Bitter Landscape traces the lived experiences of diverse rural women and men as they struggled for survival under a seemingly endless condition of liminality. In so doing, she raises critical questions about the directions and stakes of postcolonial development and nation-building in Tanzania, and the shifting meanings of identity and belonging for those on the margins of capitalist agrarian transformation.
