The Trend Standard: Book I

Jezwina Oglevy, college professor in the Houston area, gets into herbal remedies, which takes her to a place in Idaho where they create and sell them. Because she was tired and the elevation was getting to her, she got a potion she didn't ask for, but it seemed to do wonders. A couple of years later, after attending a class reunion that ended in fiasco, she returns to the lab in Idaho, demanding a reversal of the potion. "They don't even know me," she screamed, but to no avail since there was no reversing the potion. She threatens to take it to the law and the press, and is offered a very lucrative position, at which time she finds out the dual nature of The Trend Standard, some of it miraculously good, and some of it dark and sinister. Under contract, she does the best she can on the job, since they have removed her employment at her home. She still does her best but all the while trying to get out of the sinister clutches of Mack Jenkins, who is becoming more and more amorous. Will Jezwina get her freedom or will she be tied to a man and a business that are both shady and untrustworthy? What will it take for her to gain her freedom? It doesn't help that she acquires two children, one her high school rival Tullie, and the other a part of an old noble group that will stop at nothing to get the potion for themselves. A fast-moving novel that is down and dirty, with thrills and chills on every page.
