Dual Flame

<p>I never expected my life to turn into one of those modern-day gothic romances-well minus the ghostly mansions and tragic deaths. But there I was a fiercely independent family lawyer falling headfirst into a dangerous dance with my sharp-suited rival Reid Stanton. The man had a knack for slicing through my arguments and a grin that seemed custom-made to rattle me. A simple case-that's all it was supposed to be. But now between unexpected encounters and late-night pizza I'm balancing on a knife's edge between grudging respect and... something else. And while I'm trying to keep my focus it turns out Reid might be hiding secrets darker than my distrust of kale salads. Secrets that if I get too close could pull me into a spiral of scandals betrayals and questions I might not want answers to. But can I resist uncovering the truth when it's staring me down in a navy blazer and a wicked smile?</p>
