MARTIN MORTON divides his time between London and a boat in the Adriatic. 









Arno Dace keeps his clients safe. He makes sure their wealth comes from untainted sources. For the Dickinson Corporation, his major client, sourcing clean money is a pragmatic choice to sustain smooth operations and a spotless reputation; for Rachel Gideon, the head of its funds business, it is an ethical one, rooted in both principle and early experience of tragedy.


Dickinson’s extensive links with Conrad Kitter’s operations become compromised after Kitter’s merger with a shadowy Chinese organisation growing rapidly in the Middle East. Dace is asked to investigate.


His searches reveal product and customer bases expanding into new and dangerous fields of money laundering, drugs dealing, and covert arms shipments, threatening his clients’ whole operation.


Meanwhile his new relationship with Rachel Gideon leads them into an intense, wild and steamy affair which blinds them to the consequences of their business problems.


Dace’s pragmatic solutions however, accepted by Kitter and his senior Chinese partners, clash with Rachel’s principled positions.

           

How will that force them to confront their true values?

Will it threaten their commitment to each other?
















Peter Dickinson's business empire is global, expanding and all-consuming. He is trying to pull back from its pressures to make space for his life with Claudia but his business leaders have their own ambitions and drives for each of their areas, and see new opportunities emerging amid the sweeping changes he is planning. They also nurse bitter legacies of complex relationships, conflicts and dark obsessions.


Claudia is pulled by her own history, by her commitments and her unresolved feelings, causing tensions to rise as Peter's principles and even his businesses' existence are threatened in the new world he is trying to create for himself and for her.

They promise they will speak often and meet again as soon as they can. They also commit to be completely open and honest with each other.

The brief, but intensely erotic experience with Jack releases a tumult of sexual desire within Claudia, and with Jack unavailable she will need to look elsewhere to explore her boundaries. 


Claudia’s journey into sex, submission and sensuality is matched by Jack’s adventures in dominance overseas. They share their most intimate discoveries over long-distance phone calls, but will their explicit honesty bring them closer together… or tear them apart?



As Claudia’s intense affair with Jack deepens, it awakens darker desires in her than she ever suspected, and the curiosity to pursue them, even during her lengthy absences from him.


Meanwhile, after remodeling a management system at her company into a highly regarded business solution, two major corporations wish to adopt her thinking, offering the opportunity to establish her own independent consultancy business.


She is torn between these demands and fulfilling her role as a committed and now-single mum. But even while exploring her own new sexual boundaries, and the challenges posed to her commitment to openness, she has to deal with evidence that Jack appears to have neither inhibitions nor honesty.


Careless Hours is set in the high-stakes business world where lives intertwine and there is the inevitable heady mix of business and pure sexual pleasure. 


It is not for the faint-hearted. The people like to work hard and play even harder. 


Claudia Brodie and Andy Molloy are part of a global conglomerate run by Peter Dickinson. When Andy confides in Peter that he has had problems from a Japanese competitor, Peter has the bold idea of taking over that business. Andy is then thrust into the vastly different world of Japan and has to negotiate the culture and different ways of conducting business, not to mention that he’s unsure he can trust the inscrutable lawyer who is aiding him. Luckily, he has the beautiful Tania to help him. 


Claudia is also drawn into the negotiations in Japan but has her own concerns  when her ex-lover, Jack, needs her help in clearing his name in the sexual scandal that broke them up in the first place. She cares for Peter but does she still have feelings for Jack? And can she find her careless hours once more?


Work hard, play harder!

 

The fourth book in the series where business and pleasure cannot be disentangled.

 

Claudia’s life with Peter evolves into a happy partnership but storm clouds are on the horizon for the company. Dark business deals are happening in the shadows that threaten their relative peace.

 

Tania, now running one of Peter’s industry groups, discovers more about how her uncle Rod’s business operates. As Tania delves more deeply into his methods, she discovers a new, more exotic and sensual personal life.

 

Meanwhile, Jack is on the verge of reaching the top in his corporation as his working relationship with Lavinia becomes more intense, and more personal.

 

As the mists begin to clear, the dark manoeuvres take centre stage and threaten to disrupt everyone’s carefully laid plans. Can Claudia and her partners keep their businesses and their relationships thriving during intense and difficult times?
