Synopsis
Eight years after her fiancé was murdered, attorney Megan Kole has fully reconciled two areas of her life: her intelligent son, who never knew his father, and the thriving law practice that is her late father's legacy. The remainder of Megan's world stalled in a paralyzing grief that she effectively compartmentalized until a transfer to Seattle brings a handsome, mysterious billionaire into her life.
Daemon Ros has been an outcast since the day he was born. His parents’ lavish but emotionally-vacant lifestyle prompted him to assert his financial independence at a young age. His ailing brother is the only connection he allows to penetrate the vault he has built around his heart, until a devoted mom and her precocious son introduce him to the true meaning of family bonds.
But a chance legal encounter where Megan acts as mediator in a Ros family business dispute leads to far more than either expected. When a shocking truth leads to a love affair between Megan and Daemon that is forbidden in every conceivable way, the barely-restrained chemistry that scorches between them threatens an injunction on everything and everyone they hold dear. As pasts cross, memories threaten, and lies surface in a trial far more deadly than anything inside a courtroom, an arbitration of the heart could prove the only way for them both to make it out alive.

REVIEW BY TABITHA:
I really didn't think there was anyway Ms. Rohman could top Love MD in my eyes, but she most definitely did! I love both Love, Lies, and the DA and Love MD, but this one is my very favorite. If you haven't read Love MD, I strongly suggest you read it prior to reading this one. My heart broke into a million pieces when Zach died right after he got engaged to Megan. I literally felt like I was Megan and going through that with her so to say I have been anxious to get her story. I immediately fell in love with Daemon and I really rooted for Daemon and Megan almost from the get go. The twists and turns, heartbreak, and love in this book for so profound it made my heart stop a few times. I am a huge fan of this author and her writing style and highly recommend this book to everyone! It really was FANTASTIC!!! It is definitely one I will read along with the others many times over. This book really deserves more than 5 AMAZEBALLS stars!!!
Excerpt
The following evening, I slip into a dress with a plunging neckline, but I have second thoughts and change into a loose-sheath mini dress instead. I’m not sure how I feel about Chase all these years later. So much has changed in my life since college. I don’t want to convey the wrong impression by wearing an overtly sexy outfit.
I pull into the porte cochère of a restaurant named Canlis. The valet welcomes me and takes my keys. Through the trees, Emerald City’s lights reflect against the water. The building is contemporary with lots of glass, and I already know the views will be superb.
Beyond the glass doors to the building, Chase waits, smiling. I may not have been on the dating scene for the last eight years, but I can tell by the look of this place that he’s trying to impress me. It reeks of money—the type of place that would be reserved for a proposal or an extremely special occasion. If this is what he has planned for the first date and there will be a second it makes me wonder what’s next.
Moments later, we’re seated in this cubed jewel of a place, surrounded by glass windows.
“This is spectacular. Thanks for inviting me.”
“I thought you’d like it. The owners are our clients. They were booked tonight, but thanks to them, I get to come whenever I want.”
And here I was thinking I was so special.
“Nice. Lucky you. So you bring all your women up here?”
He nearly chokes on his wine. “All these years and you haven’t changed. Still as feisty as ever.”
“Have you transferred your college tendencies to the firm, Mr. Hot-Man-on-Campus?”
“You remember that?”
“How could I forget? At one point, you had dated every single girl in our Global Studies class.”
“Except you.”
“Looking to add me to your score card?”
A nervous stutter leaves his lips. “You’re not going to go easy on me at all tonight are you?”
“Should I? You’ve brought me to this beautiful place. We know each other fairly well. Why don’t we just skip through all this mellifluous crap and get straight to your intentions.”
“Spoken like a true lawyer.”
“No. Spoken like a mother.”
“I assure you my intentions are hon—”
A woman wearing a skimpy black dress interrupts us at that moment, “Chase, nice to see you so soon. Still on for Valentine’s day?”
I glare at him. You were about to tell me something about honorable intentions? Valentine’s Day is a few days away.
He looks at me, completely flushed.
She leaves, scrutinizing me with a provocative stare.
“Look Chase, I know by now you’ve gone and looked me up, and found out all you can about me. Therefore, I know that you know what the last few years of my life has been like. So if you want to do this, realize that I’m a mom. While, for you, the days of being a playboy are still very much alive, it’s not for me. I have a son, and I’m a responsible mother. Let’s enjoy the rest of tonight and reminisce as old friends.”
