In the court of love, will either of them object?Legendary lawyer Chase Newstrom is as famous in court as he is with the ladies. His work-hard, play-harder mindset is why he’s never lost a case…or lacked a model on his arm. But a recent twist before the bench threatens to derail his perfect record.Chase turns to junior associate Ainsley Speire to solve his case’s problems after hours so he can … problems after hours so he can gallivant around town with yet another lady friend, and Ainsley, despite being driven and focused, is none too pleased with her boss’s demands. She’s had to cancel long-standing plans at the last minute, again…and vows it’s for the last time.
Ainsley sits down with Chase’s most expensive scotch in one hand and fancy pen in the other and pours it all out, literally and figuratively. When Chase finds the note—and a passed-out Ainsley—he’s intrigued. Perhaps there’s more to the soft-spoken Ms. Speire than he thought.
Ainsley wakes to Chase’s trademark cocky grin, and Chase sees a new spark in Ainsley’s eyes. Anything between them would be an HR nightmare, but is there a chance Chase and Ainsley are willing to work together on one more case? A case that promises a lifetime sentence of love?

This was such a fun, sexy read! I always love a good office romance and Julie delivered! I loved the banter between Ainsley and Chase, the heat, the laughs, and how feisty she is. Hate douches in real life but love them in the books and Chase was no exception. If you’re looking for a quick, fun, steamy read, I highly recommend this one!
So here we meet Ainsley and Chase, who were perfect for each other. As they were complete opposite for each other, but they complemented each other very well. I loved Ainsley’s spontaneous and Chase’s alpha-male ego was perfect. Most definitely 2021 one of the must-reads of the year.
Not all attorneys are heartless ambulance chasers. Misadventures with a Lawyer is an engaging story about two attorneys who love the law and helping people. It is a sweet and sexy story with characters that are easy to relate to.
I have read and enjoyed many of the books in the Misadventures series. It gives me a chance to read books by authors who are new to me and I have discovered some great authors and have added them to my reading list. I have never read any of Julie Morgan’s books before and I enjoyed her writing style.
Ainsley has just graduated from law school and her dream is to become a defense attorney. She has big plans after she passes the bar exam. In the meantime, Ainsley is working as an intern for Chase to learn as much as she can from one of the best defense attorneys around. Secretly, Ainsley has a huge crush on Chase, but she has no intention of ever letting him know. However, everything changes when Ainsley drinks a little too much.
Chase is a playboy with a big paycheck and an even bigger ego, but Ainsley puts him in his place and makes him reevaluate his life and what is really important. Ainsley is completely different from all the other women Chase has known and once he opens his eyes and sees her, he is enchanted with Ainsley.
Chase and Ainsley love being attorneys. They both had different reasons for deciding to go to law school and they have worked hard to get where they are and I admired their dedication. Chase and Ainsley are good together and make each other strive to be a better person. This is an entertaining story and if you like reading about hot attorneys, you will enjoy this one.

If you are looking for a Steamy Contemporary Romance that will have you Laughing Out Loud then look no further because Chase and Ainsley will satisfy your craving!
Julie Morgan is a new to me author so I wasn’t sure what to expect going in but I had read other books in the Misadventures World and really enjoyed them so I was a bit excited and hopeful that I would not only enjoy the book but hopefully find another author I enjoyed reading…and that is exactly what happened.
Chase Newstrom is a well know defense attorney an is usually hired on cases that others would deem hard to win, but Chase only takes on cases for those that he believes are innocent. Don’t you just love that, I totally do! So when his client is accused of a heinous crime and the prosecution says they have a witness to corroborate the accusers story, well that just doesn’t sit well with Chase.
Ainsley Spiere is set to have the weekend off of work to celebrate with her friends as one of them is having a big day. Then she receives word that she has to work and NO isn’t an option for her, I’d be even more pissed than she was honestly but she took it in stride and let it all out after downing a bottle of scotch. LOL
I loved Ainsley and Chase together both in and out of the courtroom. They had great chemistry as work partners and it revved up the sexual chemistry.
If you enjoy Steamy Contemporary Office Romances this one is for you. This is a perfect afternoon read, so grab some hot coco….I’d stay away from the liquor until after you’ve read the story…curl up under your favorite blanket and dive in. If you like audiobooks, I would recommend listening to this one, the narration by Natalie Eaton and Troy Duran was excellent, you will not be disappointed.
Happy Reading!!!
Could not get enough of this sexy, fun and emotionally thrilling adventure filled with witty and engaging charters, heart racing, eye opening twists and undeniable passion. Was a highly entertaining journey from beginning to end and so hard to put down
This was nice and spicy. Ainsley had Chase going. I guess they both learned what can happen when a pissed off female get some liquor in her.
The storyline was on point for me. Although, Ainsley was a firecracker she had a little vulnerability about her too. The same can be said for Chase as well. However, together not even the devil in the form of an ex can keep them apart or stop them from prospering career wise.
Another winner in the Misadventure series.
Melting a cold heart
Chase is a very prestigious lawyer and Ainsley is his intern. Man he is one tough lawyer. Ainsley had to work on her day off and it was important to be off ,but no she worked. Well just say she was upset. Oh how she got back at him. This you have to read!! Do you think she kept her job or no? Can one act melt a man? Read this great story and see. A page turner for sure.
What a steamy read! You cannot go wrong when you are just looking for a quick and fun read – Misadventures of a Lawyer does not disappoint.
Full disclosure: I was very hesitant to read this book because my last (and only one thus far) experience with this author was … mmmm, not good.
But then I started thinking and I realized I have never not read a Misadventures book so I dove in headfirst, and you know what … not bad, not bad at all 🙂 A complete 180 from my first read by this author and I’m super stoked about that.
I enjoyed the spark between Ainsley and Chase. It was more than a sexual spark; their story had spark and as individuals they had spark. The spark made the story that much more interesting and quite frankly, unputdownable. I read the book cover to cover in one sitting and that’s pretty rare for me. I liked the storyline as well, It read realistically and relatable to an office romance. Overall, I’d have to say well done!
Yup this was definitely one hot, steamy and entertaining must read office romance. Loved the characters and the flow of the story! Would love to have more books with Ainsley and Chase, such an awesome pair!!!
Ainsley has been working as an intern at the law firm owned by Chase Newstrom a very well-known criminal attorney. Awaiting her results from the bar, Ainsley hopes to prove that she can be a valuable member of Chase’s team and an amazing lawyer once she gets her results. Ainsley is excited for a weekend of wedding events for her best friend when Chase tasks her to find information to help his client. Knowing that she will not get to meet with her friends to partake in the wedding festivities, she marches, furiously, into Chase’s office to leave him the information she found and ends up writing him a letter that was never meant for his eyes. Ainsley uses writing the letter the vent but tells Chase how she feels about him, his arrogance, and what he will never have.
Chase has always been a love them and leave them type of guy. Until the moment that Ainsley opens his eyes to what was right in front of him.
I fell in love with Ainsley from the moment she penned the letter to her arrogant boss. Chase redeems himself and becomes so lovable that you hope he can win the girl for a happily ever after.
Misadventures with a Lawyer is a must-read.
Where do I begin?
I’ll start by thanking Julie, who is a very new to me author, for popping my Misadventures cherry. I read this in less than 4 hours because I couldn’t put it down.
Ainsley Speire is an independent, fierce, plain-Jane looking intern for Mr. Cocky, model-loving attorney Chase Newstrom. She’s fantasized about him on more than one occasion, but always stayed professional.
When he demands that she looks into new evidence suddenly thrown by prosecution in a big case that takes away from huge plans she has while he leaves to tend to his own plans, she decides a little revenge from his Scotch in his office is needed. The more she drank, she let her feelings for him loose in a letter never to be seen by him. Only she passes out right on his desk, letter beneath her head. He arrived at the office and found her just that way, and he isn’t too happy. Then he grabs the letter thinking it is notes on the case. Uh-oh. It intrigued him. She was definitely not a girl he’d look twice at. But why not?
What happens when she wakes? She apologizes and prepares to leave, leave her job and what she had worked so hard for. But is that really what Chase wants? How had he not noticed Ainsley before?
The rest of the story is hot, steamy, and does not disappoint. Of course there is a wrench, because what book doesn’t have one? But I’ll leave that for you to discover. You will not want to be interrupted reading, so set aside some alone time and enjoy!
2021 must-read!!!
Woah!
Hot lawyer? Check!
Fiesty and witty heroine? Check!
Office romance? Check!
Heat as hot as fire? Check, check!
This was an absolute delight to read. I am still fairly new to Julie Morgan. The only other book of hers I have read was Misadventures with a Firefighter and boy that book was just as hot as this one.
Chase? a hotshot lawyer with model looks that can get any female he wants.
Ainsley? A witty ordinary-looking woman that is a force to be reckoned with… I loved her! She was a spitfire and gave Chase a run for his money!
When Chase demands Ainsley come into the office on her weekend off for her best friends wedding, an important day that she does not want to miss. Well, you can imagine how pissed she was!
Ainsley has lusted over Chase but he had never given her the time of day unless she was needed for something, but things quickly change and you see the chemistry builds between these two.
HOT!!
This was an amazing read and exactly what I needed right now. I love Misadventures series for this reason. You get an amazing, hot and fun read that you can finish in one sitting. This was a perfect instalment into the series and I am intrigued to see what else Ms Morgan has up her sleeve!
5 Stars!!
I need a defense attorney for my heart! Misadventures with a Lawyer is a steamy romance with plenty of drama and laughter, with some tender moments mixed in as well.
When Chase Newstrom puts his need to get some action above Ainsley’s request for time off to attend her best friend’s wedding rehearsal, it results in the most hilarious antics…and that’s only the beginning!
While Ainsley waits on results from the bar exam, she fights the growing attraction and hatred she feels for Chase, who just so happens to be her boss. She’s fiercely independent and won’t tolerate being walked on…too bad it’s only when she’s drunk.
Soon, Chase discovers Ainsley from a whole different point of view, he’s left to question what he really wants in life…a career and meaningless hookups or someone to share his ups and down with.
Unfortunately for them both, there’s an ex that won’t get the hint, and the risk of discovery that could ruin Ainsley’s upcoming career.
I enjoyed watching the change in both characters, especially as they fight for what they want, career or relationship, whether it’s for the best or not. I listened to the audiobook and it wonderfully brought Ainsley and Chase to life, so enjoy it that way if you can!
I enjoyed this Misadventures book, it was my first read by Julie and ticked all my boxes….. a fiesty, hard working but overlooked woman has a crush on her playboy boss, she ends up drunk on his whiskey in his office while he is off galavanting out and writes him a letter telling him exactly what she thinks of him and what she would like to do to him, obviously this wasn’t really meant to be read by him!!
Chase is a top lawyer and believes in hard work and has no time for relationships. His intern Ainsley helps him with a case that should have been an open and shut case, but ended up with new evidence being found that they had to dispute, thanks to Ainsley. But it should have been her weekend off as her best friend is getting married and she’s a bridesmaid, but she is stuck working while her boss is out! This is where the letter writing comes in!!
Chase returns to his office the following morning to find a drunk Ainsley with the letter which he reads, and which changes his whole perspective on her and indeed the life he is leading. This was a good enjoyable read, the characters have some real chemistry when they get together, with some laugh out loud moments in there as well.
I read this story as a beta reader and could not put it down. Ainsely is the force behind the man. She is independent and sassy. Her one bone of contention is her boss Chase who is the man who holds her attention and the one who haunts her fantasies. Chase is a work-a-holic lawyer who expects the best from himself and his employees which is why he has no remorse when he askes Ainsley to stay late. Highly perturbed, Ainsley completes her task but not before partaking of a very expensive bottle of scotch and proceeding to write a “love letter” (yes, insert sarcasm here) to her boss. Ms. Morgan has penned a lively, witty and steamy storyline and readers get to watch Ainsley step up and Chase finally sees what he has right in front of him. I highly recommend this book!
My first read of 2021 and this one was absolutely steamy! Ainsley and Chase are absolutely everything. Chase is an established defense attorney and Ainsley is the assistant soon to be lawyer. Chase is an alpha through and through with just a bit of jerk to him and Ainsley is going to call him out on it.
These two kept me flipping those pages as quickly as I could. I enjoyed the steam, the storyline, the world building. Julie has yet to disappoint me with any of her books and this one was no different.
I highly recommend this misadventure! It’s a hot one!
Omg I love this book. Chase is an amazing lawyer and a playboy, while Ainsley is soft-spoken and very smart but done cleaning up Chase’s mess. I couldn’t put this book down once I started. The characters are amazing and through some parts of this book I couldn’t stop laughing. It’s really different than most books I have read but I definitely recommend it.
