Legal Seduction is a passionate office romance tale that is heavy on the heat, with touches of emotion mixed in here and there. This fast paced read will pull you in from the first page, and keep you captivated until the last, I wound up devouring it in one sitting!! I really enjoyed meeting these characters, they had great chemistry, the banter between them kept thing simmering at an even pace, and the few tender moments were heartwarming. Overall I would have to say it was an impressive first read for me, it was engaging and had the perfect amounts of naughty and nice! Highly recommend this one, it’s sure to have you blushing throughout!

Simon Kramer was on the street as a child but over time, with the help of his three buddies, the four have managed to get an education and open their own law practice. There is a spy in their midst and Simon is on the lookout for who it might be. Bette Monroe, his personal assistant, seems to be a likely candidate so his intention is to get her to admit it…one way or another…even though she has just tendered her resignation. Bette’s dream is to make it big in fashion and with that a possibility she is more than ready to move on…but…she might just want a taste of Simon before she leaves. The mystery is not resolved by the end of the book and my guess is that the three other partners will have their stories told in the future. This was a quick easy read set in the workplace and definitely more fantasy than reality but fun to read.
Thank you to NetGalley, Barclay Publicity and Harlequin DARE for the ARC – This is my honest review.

Legal Seduction is a lesson in character building. He’s the tough guy, with a good head on his shoulders, but a deeply guarded heart. She’s the wallflower with big dreams and secret fantasies. Simon and Bette could be a perfect match, if they learn to trust each other. Lisa Childs scorches up the pages with her sensual tango of love lust and mistrust. Love is a risky business and Ms Child’s makes the risk worthwhile.
