    About this ebook

    Love Campaign


    A Contemporary Romance



    When Brisk Insurance needs a new marketing campaign and they shortlist both Wonderworks and Imagine Solutions to tender for the job, Allie has the chance to prove herself. She has to go up against Daniel Bowen, a Shark in the marketing world, but she knows enough about him not to be afraid of a little healthy competition.


    Until she meets him and he’s not what she expected him to be. Instead of staying away from him and focusing on her work, Allie spends more and more time with him. It looks like Daniel is the one man that changes her ideas about juggling relationships and careers.


    It’s just a pity that Daniel has ulterior motives. What catches her off guard, though, is the fact that the womanizer of the century seems to have developed emotions. Through the difficulty of being on opposing teams and both making personal mistakes, they both learn about choices. But all is fair in love and war, right? Or will there be space in their perfect worlds for each other?

      Love Campaign - Liz Levoy

      publisher.

      Chapter 1

      Allie

      I walked into the office just after eight and sat down at my desk. The office smelled like cleaning detergent, freshly applied perfume and coffee.

      You’re late, Lori teased.

      Two minutes, I replied.

      Lori turned in her chair and smiled at me. You wild thing.

      I rolled my eyes at her but I couldn’t help smiling. So, I was known in the office for always being exactly on time. Lori had gotten three tardy notes from Nina in the past two months. It was important to me not to be late. I kicked off my kitten heels. The industrial carpet was rough underneath my stockinged feet. I retrieved a pair of slippers from the bottom drawer and slid my toes into them.

      Lori pulled her dark hair up into a bun and stuck a pencil into it. Strands fell back into her face, defeating the purpose.

      Lori’s desk was diagonally opposite to mine. The open plan office was spacious, allowing each of us to have enough space for larger desks and cubicle walls that we could stick things onto. It was still open plan – I wasn’t in my own office just yet – but I preferred it being communal. I enjoyed working in an environment where I could hear and feel the life teeming around me.

      So, office gossip, Lori said.

      That’s what I miss out on when I’m late, I joked.

      Lori smiled. I heard it from Janine in HR last night after you left, she said. You know how she is, unable to keep her mouth shut.

      Seems to be the trend around here.

      Lori pulled a face. If I kept my mouth shut you wouldn’t know a thing that was going on, she said.

      I shrugged. It was true, I owed all the gossip and secondhand information to Lori who kept her eyes and ears open always and told me everything she saw and heard, no matter how credible.

      Brisk Insurance wants to vamp up their act. They need a new campaign and they’re hiring.

      I raised my eyebrows. Brisk is big. I reached into my bag and pulled out a yogurt cup and a plastic spoon.

      Lori nodded. Wonderworks is one of the companies up for consideration, she said

      That’s big. I peeled open the yogurt and licked the foil before dumping it in my waste basket. Did the gossip mention who was going to get the job?

      Lori shook her head. No, but we do know that ImSo has also been mentioned.

      I groaned around the plastic spoon in my mouth. Imagine Solutions was a huge company, a shark in the marketing world that ate small companies like Wonderworks for breakfast. They got most of the campaigns they tendered for, working on a large-scale and focused on quick turnaround and instant gratification. They were the exact opposite from Wonderworks.

      I’d been with Wonderworks for almost four years. I’d worked with a cutthroat company like ImSo before and it hadn’t been my thing – I preferred the personal touch and the heart that went into our work.

      You know they’ll put Daniel on it, Lori said.

      I rolled my eyes. I didn’t expect anything else. I scooped more yogurt out of my cup.

      He’s such an ass, Lori said.

      So, I hear.

      I was one of the few people in our industry who hadn’t had the misfortune of meeting Daniel yet. I was happy keeping it that way if anything I’d heard about him was true.

      Anyway, Lori said. We’ll find out what’s happening soon enough. I have other news, too. A favor to ask, actually.

      I glanced up at Lori. Her favors weren’t simple.

      What is it?

      Lori smiled. Shane’s looking for a date for the charity thing he needs to sort out.

      I pulled a face.

      And you want me to do it?

      Lori nodded. You know he’s too shy to ask you himself. You’re so intimidating.

      I laughed. Me? Sure.

      Really, Lori said. You’re successful and confident and all those nice traits a woman should have.

      I chuckled. Wonderful compliments, I said sarcastically.

      And he needs someone to make those PR cows jealous. You know how they get.

      I scraped out the last bit of my yogurt and sucked off the spoon before throwing it all away.

      So, you want me to act like I’m his girlfriend so I can make him look better in front of them because they think he’s gay.

      Lori sighed. Basically. You know how different he is. They’re giving him hell.

      Shane was Lori’s cousin and he worked on the second floor of our building. He was involved in PR – one of the few men in Wonderworks who employed largely women – and he wasn’t the manliest man out there. He lacked the oozing testosterone and absolute disregard for women’s feelings that most men had and that made him a target. Go figure.

      Yeah, okay. I’ll do it if he comes to talk to me himself, I said.

      Lori grinned. You’re a star, she said.

      I turned to my desk and rolled my eyes. I wasn’t a star. I was a sad sap who helped people because I couldn’t bear to say no. It wouldn’t be so bad, though. What would one night hurt just to show the PR bitches a thing or two? They really were a hard bunch to please – I got irritated when I was around them during lunch. I couldn’t imagine what working with them would be like.

      Nina alert, Lori said in a low voice without turning around and we pretended to be working.

      Allison, Nina called from the other side of the floor. In my office, please.

      I nodded and kicked off my slippers to put my heels on again. I glanced at Lori who rolled her eyes. Nina insisted on Allison even when everyone else called me Allie. I hated being called by my full name.

      I walked to Nina’s office and knocked before entering.

      Nina’s office was a home away from home. She spent so much time at work she hardly needed any of her stuff at home.

      In the corner, an elliptical machine stood gleaming and proud. Nina had her own coffee machine, a clothing rack with more dress suits
