From Lee Christine, the critically acclaimed author of In Safe Hands, comes a tense, taut, urban romantic suspense about two lawyers, a high - profile divorce case and an attraction that even opposing counsels can't shut down. It was only supposed to be a casual affair, a stress - relieving, night - time romp, a secret just between the two of them. But when divorce lawyer Laila Richards ends up on the opposite side of the bench to high powered lawyer Evan Barclay in a very public, very high - profile divorce, she knows their fling will jeopardise the case of her career, and breaks off the relationship. Stunned by Laila's decision, Evan vows to make the beautiful lawyer deal with him, both in and out of the courtroom. But when suspicious activity begins to emerge, and Laila's safety is threatened, Evan fears his client - his best friend, the son of the only family Evan has ever known - may be involved. Bound by client confidentiality and battling a massive conflict of interest, Laila and Evan fight to win, fight for justice, and fight for a chance at a relationship that's anything but casual.
