Synopsis:
At the powerhouse law firm of Knight & Payne, winning comes first and ethics a distant second. Leary Michaels uses her female charms to daze opponents, and it’s always worked well—until now. On her most personal case yet, she finds herself going up against a defense attorney just as skilled, shameless, and seductive as she is.
Reeve Holloway has never met a woman as sure of her own sexuality, or as ruthless in wielding it, as Leary is. But he won’t be toyed with. What Leary starts, he’ll finish—in the courtroom, the bedroom, or any-damn-place he wants. The sex is uninhibited, electrifying, and absolutely against the rules. Reeve’s job is to ruin Leary’s case…even if it destroys her in the process and costs him the woman he’s come to love.
Dear Sawyer,
Thank you, thank you for bringing me out of my reading funk that I was sadly held hostage in for the past few months. I can’t say how much I appreciated this. I absolutely love everything you write and I probably will never get enough and that’s completely ok with me.
** On to my review**
All it took was one ridiculous motion to light a fire under Leary Michaels and she was out for blood. Of course she had to have fun with it by playing seductive mind games with the opposing counsel. While Leary was able to make a fool out of him in court, but she also left him speechless on numerous levels.
Being the highly confident man the Reeve Holloway is he quickly turned the tables on Leary leaving her in a state awe and but also managed to occupy her thoughts for days after their first meet.
The back and forth banter between Leary and Reeve was more than entertaining, it was also electric and enticing. All of which of the things that kept my Nook glued to my hands.
As the story progress I became more anxious of who would win the ongoing battle both in the courtroom as well as the bedroom.
I adored the Leary’s passion and work ethics for the cases that she took on.Her personality was very down to earth. The only draw back to her was when her lines started to blurred with Reeve when it came to their work life versus personal. While I understand completely especially once learning why she was so invested.
Can I just say that I completely adore Reeve, while he doesn’t fight for the little guy he still does what’s right. I felt bad for him at times because of the position he was in, but he always handled things according. His patience and his no nonsense attitude completely won me over.
If you’ve ever read any of Ms. Bennett’s books chances you already know her reading keeps you on the edge of your seat with angst and sexiness and just emotion. SO MANY EMOTIONS. The story is well written with a dual POV which I ABSOLUTELY love because it gives me a chance to see both sides. The secondary characters always enhance the story and causes me to want to know more about them, but the don’t overtake the story that’s already happening.
