Title: Staying
On Top (Whitman University, #4)
Author: Lyla Payne
Release Date: December 9. 2013
Sam Bradford has it all—he’s the #2 tennis player in
the world, plenty of girls want to date him, and he’ll never want for money. At
least, that’s what he thought until his accountant stole everything and
disappeared. Interpol has no idea where to start, and neither does the American
F.B.I., so Sam figures he’ll just have to take care of his body and play a few
extra years to make it back.
When Blair Paddington, the accountant’s daughter and
a friend of a friend at Whitman, shows up and claims she can help Sam get his
money back he’s torn between wanting justice and the very real possibility that
Blair is just as big a con man as her father. When she promises not only money,
but justice, Sam agrees—but only if he can go along on the search.
The two of them set off on an adventure neither rich
kid is prepared for—cheap hostels, the same clothes three days in a row, and
nothing but a backpack of possessions—so they can fly under the radar as
college lovers on a winter break. In spite of Blair’s shady family, her daring
and resourceful personality strike Sam’s interest and he finds himself falling
for the one girl he shouldn’t.
When they finally find her father, the truths that
come to light not only make Sam question his affection for Blair, but could
cost him more than money—if they can’t work together one last time, neither of
them may be going home. Ever.
I’ve
long had a love of stories. A few years ago decided to put them down on the
page, and even though I have a degree in film and television, novels were the
creative outlet where I found a home. I’ve published Young Adult under a
different name, but when I got the idea for Broken at Love (my first New Adult
title), I couldn’t wait to try something new – and I’m hooked. In my
spare time I watch a ton of tennis (no surprise, there), play a ton of tennis,
and dedicate a good portion of brain power to dreaming up the next fictitious
bad boy we’d all love to meet in real life.
