Verdict: guilty…of making me want him… Stone Michaelson has been my rival for a long time. He’s also my biggest fantasy. I shouldn’t desire him—he’s arrogant and ruthless every time we face off in court. He’s also gorgeous and intelligent, with the body of a god. As a lawyer for the notorious Street Legal firm, he’s so wealthy he’s out of touch, representing clients who think they can buy their way out of anything. As assistant DA, I want justice for people who deserve it. And yet he always beats me. Now we’re across from each other on a huge case—the murder trial of a New York billionaire—and I’m determined to show no mercy. This time I’ll win. Fighting him in court is a challenge, but fighting our attraction is even harder. My lust for him burns hotter every day, and I know he feels it, too. When we end up alone together one night, the gloves—and the clothes—come off. And once we’ve given in, we can’t stop. Our jobs are on the line, so no one can ever know. In the courtroom, we’re opposing counsel. In the bedroom, let’s just say I’m not opposed to anything. Until the day I can’t remain objective. Not when it comes to the trial…only when it comes to my heart. Sexy. Passionate. Bold.
