Chelsea Tanner’s career as a defence lawyer is rapidly climbing. Her strong ethics and sharp wit in the courtroom has paved her way into becoming an associate of Sydney’s top law firm. She hasn’t lost a single case in her short but successful career. Law is her life, living and breathing it leaves little time for anything more. When a member from the infamous Legano Family is up on a murder charge, Chelsea finds more.

Pacer Fratelli is dark, hard and completely consumed by his new defence lawyer. Chelsea and Pacer’s worlds couldn’t be further apart but he wants more … and what Pacer wants, Pacer gets.

When bad love feels so good, just how far would you go to defend it?

Excerpt

Those damn leather gloves, I blame them.

I run my fingers through my hair to blow out at the wet strands that have stuck around my lips, and I grab my glass and gulp the remainder of my week old wine, before flopping back against the couch to collect my thoughts.

Seriously though, what the hell was that?

Pacer Fratelli is my client! A dangerous client. A client who I know is a murderer.

I can’t feel like this, but I do.

His smile flashes before my eyes again. Oh my god, would you just leave me the hell alone? I punch my fists down onto the chair, either side of me.

I strip down as I head to the shower, peeling off each layer like I’m shedding skin and discarding the clothes on the floor with an angry slap. My body is still abuzz with my post-assault, but at the same time, I am pissed off. These thoughts have no place in my mind. They can fuck right off.

A after a good talking to myself in the stream of the cold shower, I throw on my old university sweats, ready to see my night out in front of the coffee table … and all things Pacer Fratelli.

Dangerously hot, Pacer Fratelli.


Gah!







I absolutely loved this book. It was one hell of a story!!
I have read a lot of TJ Hamilton’s books and this one did not disappoint at all. Granted it is somewhat dark but there is humour, hotness and some really great characters with a very interesting storyline.
Chelsea Tanner is a barrister and is representing Pacer in a case against him. She uncovers some rather interesting things through getting to know Pacer as well as his family and delving into his past. Not all is what it seems though. She is incredibly determined.
Underneath we get a sense that Pacer, although a very bad boy, he truly is a man that goes after and gets what he wants. Pacer loves his family, has a things for gloves and oh my…what he can do with them…but you get to know why he uses them and in what way, when you read the book you will understand. Yes you will.  
Pacer was hard not to like….especially with the naughty thoughts in his head, lol. The way he treated Chelsea, his family ties and his charm made him an extremely lovable character. 
You could feel their attraction to each other coming through and when they are together, its sizzling!!
 I really liked Chelsea, the way she handled herself and her dedication to her job. I also loved her cousin Logan, who always told it like it is and had Chelsea’s back. I really enjoyed the way the story ended too.

This is a book you should put in your TBR list. Well done TJ, can’t wait to see what you have up your sleeve for us next!!
