Her Lover's Legacyby Adrianne Byrd Paperback,

In Stores August 1, 2008
Heir-apparent Malcolm Braddock may be the
sexiest community activist under the Houston
sun, but clearly he's met his match in Gloria
Kingsley, the late senator Harmon Braddock's
strikingly beautiful executive assistant. Both
were recently spotted in a limo in a
very...um...compromising position, and it
appears Ms. Kingsley is influencing more than
the brooding, lone-wolf bachelor's normally
conservative sense of fashion (when she lets him
stay dressed, of course!)
We can conclude that Gloria is on a mission to
make No-Commitments-Malcolm her Mr. Right. But
with rumors flying about Senator Braddock--and a
few dirty little secrets that didn't die with
him--can she get Malcolm to secure his father's
mantle as well.
