My youngest daughter does this to her shows all the time. My husband asked me one day where she got it from, then a few minutes later I started yelling at my book and he’s like “Oh I see, that’s where she got it from.” She is my little mini me after all.
Not only that but they make traveling so much easier. Tomorrow I’m headed to TLA so my tablet works great for a lighter load.
In this insta-love story you have two lawyers Dane and Audrey. They both work for a top defense office looking to climb the professional ladder and make senior partner. Audrey has worked for the company for four years, where as Dane has only been there for one. Audrey has had to fight for her position on the way to the top, seeing as she is a girl in a male dominated career. Dane, who has just won a major case, is moving up that ladder faster than Audrey can all because, well you guessed it, he’s a guy.
When the boss man and senior partner, Preston, calls them both into his office, Audrey feels like she is about to be passed over for the promotion. Come to find out that there is a big case/client, and if they win, it would be great for the the company-and they are to both represent him, with Dane being lead consul.
As they prep for the trial, the two have some arguments on what evidence needs to be trashed and what doesn’t. When it came to the trial date, day one went smoothly with both of them rocking the court and the jurors. Day two, however, not so much. They tried to one up each other on everything. Day three went better as they had a little heart to heart and said for the sake of the client they would put their differences aside and work together to win this case.
Over the weekend, Dane thought they could both use some rest and relaxation and invited her for a spa day. This turned into dinner, then a walk, ending at his condo for the rest of the weekend. When court resumed on Monday things went a lot better for them and the client.
When it was all said and done, well you have to read to find that out. Great quick read if you just need a little pick me up or do not have time for a full length novel.

I do this to my screensaver on my desktop at work. I have a gorgeous picture but can’t read the book titles.
If I don’t disturb you when you are doing your own thing. Why do you insist on disturbing me when I am lost in a different world?
If I was off work today I would have finished it last night as well but since we can’t always be off I will get it finished tonight.
So true especially when you find that one that speaks to you even if it’s 2 am and you have to work the next day.
Shortage of space is a major issue I have right now. I’ve had to result in pushing my books all the way to the back of the shelf and stacking others in front of them. Not cool.
What happens when you have a thief break into your home one evening? You hire his daughter to come and live with you and become your accountant.
When Andrew is awoken from sleep with a loud commotion coming from his office he hurries down to see who has broken into his home. He is surprised to find Rick and old friend of his late father digging through stuff looking for something to steal. Andrew gives him two options, one to leave via hospital or two leave via jail. Rick gets smart and tells him he will take option three of which Andrew tells him there is no other option. Trying to save his hide, Rick mentions the fact that Andrew is having accounting problems and that his daughter Sophia has her degree in accounting, hoping that she could come work for him in exchange for his freedom.
When Sophia’s dad tells her he needs a favor and acts all sketchy around her, she knows something is not right. He informs her that he had made a deal for her to work at Andrew’s doing the books because she’s the best and can figure out what was wrong. She agrees to help him and goes to work for Andrew. When she shows up Monday morning, her first meeting with Andrew is not a pleasant one. Liam, Andrew’s long time butler and friend, gives Sophia a tour of the mansion. He shows her her office and her room and bathroom, and she learns her dad left out some pertinent information when he asked her for help.
The first few days of working for Andrew do not go smoothly by any means. Talk about a paranoid man, always thinking the worst of Sophia but still lusting after her. Sophia makes progress going through the books finding a few indescrepencies here and there. Andrew asked Sophia if she wanted to accompany him to Africa on a dig. While there, they get closer and she worries when they get home if it will all change. Well something does change between them when she learns of the truth of what her father did and why she is really there.
Once again I am excited for the extended epilogue. It was nice to see what happened when the story was “over”. It really filled in all the holes for their HEA. Such a great read. I received an ARC of this book for my honest, voluntary review.

I have commercials when reading when someone pretends to not see the book in my hand and talk to me until I give them attention.
