Lawyers know when to play by the rules…and when to break them.Legally Bound, Book 1Harvard law professor Jack Archer once balanced his professional life with the private world of dominance, surrender and trust he shared with his wife. Since cancer stole her a year ago, finding love again—her final wish for him—is the furthest thing from his mind.From his empty house to the classroom, grief … his empty house to the classroom, grief follows his every move. Until he meets a young woman with shadows in her eyes even darker than his own.
Once a shining star at law school, Lilly Sterling’s dreams died when the Dom she trusted left her heartbroken and lost. She’s starting fresh in a new city as a paralegal, but meeting Jack reawakens all her old demons—and her lingering desires.
Jack offers to become Lilly’s mentor for both the courtroom and the playroom, but tells himself it’s not a relationship. Their carefully worded agreement guarantees that. But when their trial agreement starts heating up, both Jack and Lilly must decide what will tip the scales: the letter of the law…or love?
Warning: All rise for a book that contains a wounded submissive and a Dominant who wants to retrain her while retaining control of his heart. Discovery phase may involve spankings, bondage, edging, and blindfolds. Is it hot? You be the judge.

Great book, I really enjoyed it!
Simply breathtaking!
I bought this book months ago. It took a long time for it to reach the top of my TBR list……. mistake #1.
Mistake #2 — not being prepared to suffer from this book hangover while on vacation! I can’t think about anything right now other than this book and the relationship so beautifully portrayed by the author.
The depth of character, the heartbreak, the healing, the strength, the courage, the love…… they are all too much to comprehend fully.
I sent messages to my book loving friends before even posting reviews… this is a highly recommended must read!
A little sad but a happy ending.
His Contract gave me mixed feelings. I didn’t really like this book as much as I had hoped. It was just whatever. I didn’t really connect to the characters, they felt really bland and boring despite both their preference for BDSM. The story is sexy, but its not. During the hot scenes I felt very unaffected and it might have to do with not being able to connect with the characters. So for me this book was just ok.
Excellent . Tear jerker to sexy to realistic . I’d read it again !
