The Fitzgerald Group.
The lobby was nothing short of spectacular—soaring ceilings, easily thirty feet high, arched overhead in a grand dome. A massive crystal chandelier bathed the entire space in dazzling light, making the marble floors gleam.
Outside, a limited-edition Ferrari pulled up to the curb with the kind of swagger only a car like that could command. The building's uniformed doormen immediately recognized the license plate. Without missing a beat, they strode forward and opened the car door with practiced respect.
Isadora glanced at their destination, a little puzzled. Why had Victor brought her here?
Victor stepped out first, then reached over to open her door. He leaned against the frame in his usual relaxed manner, one elegant hand resting on the roof. His dark eyes glittered with amusement as he looked at her.
"What's wrong? Need me to carry you out?"
Before he could say another word, Isadora quickly slipped out of the car.
Sure, this was his company. But to be carried out of his car in front of everyone? She would never live it down.
Victor took her hand in his, and together they walked into the building, side by side.
The lobby was bustling with people coming and going. The moment the employees of The Fitzgerald Group spotted them, eyes widened in shock. No one expected that, just after the official announcement, President Fitzgerald would make such a public entrance with his partner.
A respectful path quickly opened before them as employees greeted them with the utmost deference.
"Good morning, Mr. Fitzgerald."
"Good morning, Mr. Fitzgerald."
Victor arched an eyebrow, clearly unimpressed. "What, no ‘Good morning, Mrs. Fitzgerald'?"
The words had barely left his lips before the entire lobby erupted in unison—
"Good morning, Mrs. Fitzgerald!"
"Good morning, Mrs. Fitzgerald!"

The readers' comments on the novel: Never Again Yours (Isadora and Magnus)
It takes too long to get to the point. Too much unnecessary in between in all of these books. Too many extra characters, the authors lose the plot after a while....
