Feisty Mina Lin waltzes on glass shards when she lands a job as billionaire Jaiden Daniels's maid. What happens when Jaiden hires her to become his pretend girlfriend? Pretending to be in love with the hot Rich Boy is hard, when Mina's heart only beats for her boy next door, Kiterin Forrests. What happens when Mina doesn't know what her heart wants and a crazy Stalker is after Jaiden's life, and the only person who can save him is Mina?
Find out in Maid for Me, starring Mina Lin, an ambitious, silly, funny, and talented Asian-American heroine who has even developed her own fighting styled called Mina-Jitsu.
"Chances are, a hobo would moon me on the train before a hot guy asks me out-- I'm plain, a little chubby and definitely not hot stuff like the socialites of Gossip Girl or what-not. But hey, guess what, the Prince of Uptown, Jaiden Daniels, just singled me out among dozens of other girls and he's hired me to become his maid/bodyguard and pretend girlfriend. He wants me to pretend to be his love interest so his father would stop matchmaking him with the Mayor's crazy daughter. Acting to be in love with Jaiden is hard, even though he's gorgeous, because I've been in love with my best friend Kiterin since forever. Too bad Kiterin has a gorgeous girlfriend. So here I am, ordinary-girl Mina Lin, star of a real life teenage soap-opera involving love polygons (I love Kit, Kit doesn't love me, Jaiden's falling for me?), evil socialites, backstabbing, twists and turns—wait until you hear what happens when Jaiden's kidnapped. It's Mina Lin with her Mina-jitsu (a martial arts style I've perfected) to the rescue! Find out what happens in my story, Maid for Me by Kat Lieu."
Excerpt
Jaiden Daniels’s face blanched. The son of Jameson Daniels, Comptroller of the Uptown and billionaire CEO of Daniels Limited Partnership (D.L.P.), almost killed a girl with his new, one of a kind modified, crimson Maserati. Jaiden stared back at her- she looked like a dazed bumpkin about to be beamed into a UFO.
Mina’s heart stopped for a second.
She analyzed the shiny sports car. She had a feeling the young driver could sell the car and buy a two-bedroom co-op in West Uptown with the money.
How could someone so young be so rich?
The driver wore stylish shades over his eyes and had slicked back black hair. Mina almost wished his car had hit her. Instead of selling her organs, she could make a heap of money from a lawsuit settlement.
The driver behind Jaiden honked. Reflexively, Jaiden honked as well.
Mina jumped.
How obnoxious! He almost killed me and now he wants me to get off the streets?
The cogwheels in her head turned. She listened to the evil advice of the little Mina-Devil on her left shoulder.
Pretend you’re hurt. Sue his pants off. Save Daddy’s house.
Alright. I’ll probably regret this later, but here goes. How else am I going to make fifty-grand?
Jaiden cussed when the girl dropped to the ground, blocking his escape route. He visualized his near future.
Soon, the girl would create a city-wide traffic jam. The police would arrive, along with the paparazzi. In less than an hour’s time, Jaiden would ruin his father’s name, reputation, and chance of becoming the Mayor.
