A Different Life: A Martiniere Multiverse Novel

by Joyce Reynolds-Ward

Overview

WHEN NOTHING TURNS OUT TO BE AS EXPECTED....

After Linda Coates gets a job offer from friend Ruby Barkley Martiniere, she sees a means to escape the growing issues created by her ambitious brother-in-law Clyde Newsome, who seemingly wants to control every aspect of Linda's life.

Ruby's offer means Linda gets the chance to work closely with her friend in developing high-end agricultural robotics and manage the Martiniere Group's high-end labs around the world.

What Linda didn't expect was Armand Martiniere-her counterpart who works for Ruby's husband Gabriel. Or what Armand comes to mean to her. Or the degree to which her brother-in-law Clyde wants to pursue her as part of his political ambitions. Linda needs to find a way to protect her family and remain safe...hopefully, with Armand. Can she make it happen-either alone, or with the help of the Martinieres?
