      About the Author

      Chapter 1

      Simon

      Order gives me strength. Routine dominates my life---it soothes and brings me peace in a chaotic world. Perhaps, that sounds dull, but my habits calm me. I run my life like I run my company. I expect the best and plan for the worst. My time is precious, and I refuse to waste it listening to excuses or fixing other people's mistakes. 

      This is my mantra. I guard it well and practice it daily. 

      Every morning, I wake at 5:00 without exceptions. For forty-five minutes, I run. If the weather permits, I run in the park. If it doesn't, I hit the gym. I prefer to be in nature, breathe fresh air and enjoy the scenery before spending the rest of my day indoors. But I keep my routine regardless of the weather.  

      At precisely 7:30, I arrive at the office. I would rather be thirty minutes early than one minute late. My assistant brings me a cup of coffee, black, no sugar, and I start my day by answering emails or listening to voice messages. Fridays are typically slow, but we just closed a huge account, and multiple items need my review and signature. 

      Five minutes before 8:00, I casually patrol the executive hallway. Although I can't control or monitor the arrival and departure of all my employees, I keep an eye on those I most depend on. They know the rules. I've been clear. If I arrive on time, so can they. My Senior Vice-Presidents arrive minutes after me. The managers show up just before 8:00. They cut it close, but all are here before I do my daily inspection.  

      With one exception, Nova Rigby. She's late.

      I told Ken she was too young to be a manager. She's undisciplined and unruly. If I had my way, I would have fired her after her first offense, but he relies on her more than any of his other managers. They tell me she's talented. He says she's brilliant and irreplaceable. That's absurd---no one is irreplaceable.  

      I watch her tiptoe into the office at 8:04 without a coat. It's thirty degrees, and this girl is too forgetful to wear a sweater or jacket. No gloves or scarf in sight. Just a thin blouse and a long, tight pencil skirt resembling something from an Audrey Hepburn movie. She wears it well. 

      Big deal. Nova's a gorgeous hanger. 

      There's no denying she's a pretty girl. Too pretty. The kind of beautiful you don't think twice about seeing in the pages of a magazine but you never think you'll see in real life. 

      That's Nova. Flaky, stunning Nova Rigby.

      I take a
