EXTRACT FOR Jenny's Last Stand (David Monroe) 
Jenny Mae had it all. She was a bright and creative entrepreneur who had also been blessed with super model-like beauty. All her life she had used this combination of brains and sex appeal to glide through anything......you name it. She had often manipulated and molded most of the men in her life to get her what she wanted. Her striking figure and unforgettable beautiful facial features often made her competitors misjudge her as some large-breasted bimbo and she let them. This was all part of her strength in the business world and she used it to her advantage constantly. Once the old boy network made this unfortunate assessment of her, she used her superior intellect and strategic positioning skills to crush them.
As she leaned on the railing that overlooked Miami Beach where she lived now, she thought back on all her successes.....regardless of how they had come to her.....a girl's got to do what a girl's got to do.......and wondered if this last plan-this last wild, desperate plan that she was about to launch would add to her long list of successes or would it be the end of the line for her.....right now she felt like it could go either way. The breeze from the ocean blew her long, shining deep auburn hair off her soft shoulders and behind her as she spun the ice cubes in her bourbon. The breeze was not cold....certainly not at this time of year....but her nipples grew stiff with the wind as it passed by her. Perhaps it was partly the wind and partly her nerves.......probably mostly the latter.
