ArianaBetrayal. The pain and rage that consumed me was unbearable. My perfect reality had become my hurtful one. Loss of illusion settled inside me and constricted the air I breathed. I felt as if my entire life was a lie. Fresh out of law school, I needed a new start and to put the pieces of my life back together. When I left Boston and moved to New York, I met Luca Russo, a high powered, sexy … powered, sexy attorney who liked control. He took me under his wing and did things for me no other man had ever done. Everything comes with a price, and mine was falling for a man who couldn’t return my affection. Then one night tragedy struck and he needed my help. That was the night I became his defense.
Luca
There wasn’t anyone or anything I couldn’t control. I thrived on it. It made me who I was. Some called me ruthless because I played dirty in the courtroom, and some called me a man-whore because I liked to sleep with women but refused to give them anything more. I was a thirty-year-old man with the world at his fingertips. I had a successful career that I loved, a luxury apartment on Park Avenue, and the company of any beautiful woman I wanted at any time. Then Ariana Williams walked into my firm and left me breathless. The chemistry between us was undeniable. But I had a past and a secret I never wanted her to know, so I had to walk away. Then one tragic night I needed her, and now she holds the fate of my life in her hands.

This is my first read by this author, and I must say that I am pleasantly surprised. The storyline, the characters, and the author’s writing style are quite good. It is a steamy, suspenseful romance between lawyers, Luca and Ariana. These characters are flawed, the connection strong, the chemistry hot, and the unique, sometimes unrealistic plot makes for an intriguing read. It is a love story with drama and steam, plus engaging secondary characters to keep the reader interested. Overall, it is a solid read with heart, heat and a happy ending.

Ariana had worked hard and it had paid off, unfortunately her personal life had taken the hits, sheer luck had got her this job when Luca the boss had offered her the work he had one thing in mind, what he didn’t know is Ariana would become his sa for. Hot from the start with a twister that pulls you up short, perfect.

This is not only a story filled with romance it has some suspense & minor angst.
A family betrayal sets Ariana on a journey to New York to start a new life & reconnect with a former friend. Luca is an epic womaniser & her friends boss. Of course she starts working for him & sparks fly. He’s older than her & set in his ways & position. Having just got her legal degree Ariana is starting new. Sparks fly between these two & there is the question of workplace romance.
I think Ariana turns out to be a brilliant lawyer, as well as detective to represent Luca when times get bad. So much going on not saying anymore just enjoy!

I enjoyed Luca and Arianna. The characters are well developed and engaging and the chemistry is strong. The characters have big secrets that could tear them apart before they get a chance to develop into a couple. The storyline flowed smoothly from beginning to the end.

The story was filled with action, drama and a whole of interesting thrilling page turners. I loved the characters and how everything turned out. A must read!
I love a good story especially legal thrillers. This book snatched me from page one till the end. Definitely will be reading more by Ms. Lynn. She really defended him to the best of her ability. She was sharp and knew that if she wasn’t then she could hang up on being a lawyer.

She’s putting up a good defense
This is my first story by Sandi and I really enjoyed the dynamics of Luca and Ari, I felt like they had a good chemistry together. Ari is new to New York, after impulsively leaving her home town. Luca takes her under his wing and helps her get established with work and a place to live. When Luca is caught up in a murder trial, he calls Ari to defend him
The trial portion and investigation part of this books was interesting but I find the trial portion a bit unrealistic but otherwise it was a good story overall. I also have to admit I like the new cover more than the original one. I received an advanced copy via Booksprout and I voluntarily leave my honest review
There’s courtroom drama, suspense, revenge, sexy characters and some murder mystery. It’s well written and the characters are strong and well developed. An intense story that keeps you turning the pages because you have to find out what happens.
