EXCERPT:
"Penny...we have a job proposal for you. A business partnership, if you will, that we think you would be perfectly suited for," Vince began as he quickly shared a look with Nolan. "We've searched a long time for the perfect candidate and well, we can't think of anyone we'd rather enjoy this particular partnership with than you."

"Me?" she repeated, her brow furrowing. "Why me?"

"We've been watching you for quite some time," Vince admitted.

"Watching me?" Penny repeated, confused. "I don't understand."

"Well, first, let's talk about your qualifications," Nolan said. She nodded, openly perplexed. She felt decidedly out of her element and pushed her glasses further on the bridge of her nose out of nervousness. "You're funny, quick-witted, with a dry sense of humor that suits our personalities; you're smart and quick to learn; but aside from all that...your most valued asset is...your gorgeous body."

Penny stared. Were they mocking her? was this a joke? Her lip trembled but she managed to keep the tears at bay. Somehow she'd thought those days where she was the brunt of everyone's jokes were over. Suddenly the painful memories of high school rose to jeer at her and the Buchanan brothers were no different than the jocks who had thrown food at her in the cafeteria while making pig noises. She rose stiffly and clutched her satchel tightly as she said, lifting her chin. "I may not be as beautiful as the women who usually parade in and out of your lives but I'm pretty in my own way and I don't deserve to be mocked by you. Goodnight, Mr. and Mr. Buchanan."

"Who says we are mocking you? We've said nothing that wasn't true," Nolan said quietly, his intense gaze causing her to falter. He leaned forward, pinning her with that gaze. "Hasn't anyone ever told you how beautiful you are?"

"N-no...well, I mean, my dad, but I don't think that's who you mean," she answered. "You think I'm...beautiful?"
