She’s the prosecutor. I’m the judge. Sleeping with her is all sorts of hell no!Ethic review boards could remove me from the bench—as in “You’re fired.” Even … “You’re fired.”
Even worse, my father would kill me if his name were tainted. But it would kill me more not to have her.
They say rules are meant to be broken. But is she worth the risk?

Your Honor is a tennis match that has my head swiveling with the constant back and forth emtional interactions between the hero, Jenner and the heroine, Lucy. Their story is passion-driven, angst-filled, and absolutely forbidden.
World-weary Jenner is a cynic and a stoic whose ice-covered heart begins thawing the moment he meets Lucy. The result of defrosting that long frozen organ is a true treasure. Jenner transforms into the loving, thoughtful man we only catch glimpses of in the opening chapters.
Lucy, in contrast to Jenner, is ready to take care on the world with youthful enthusiasm and purpose driven by the experiences of her childhood. Her heart is open, hopeful and ready for adventure.
Lucy and Jenner’s initial introduction is painfully awkward and serendipitous. Their subsequent interactions are heated emotional exchanges which leave both them and the reader praying for a path to happiness.
Krisit Pelton has written an intriguing and unforgettable romance in them most unlikely of settings. The road to the happy ending is one curving and twisted ride. The final destination is paradise.
This is my first book by Kristi Pelton and it definitely won’t be my last. I loved this book! The characters in this book are absolutely amazing. They hold your attention from the first page right until the last page. The story is emotional wrecking; it talks about a very sensitive topic and gives light to Lucy’s character.
Jenner is a headstrong judge who’s father is a supreme judge. His life has been directed from his from his father. When Jenner’s father discovers Lucy in his life he goes to Lucy to make it clear to her that her presence in his son’s life is unacceptable…
Jenner and Lucy’s relationship is definitely off to a rough start; between a forbidden relationship, a spiteful jealous spurned lover, and a lifetime of insecurities Jenner has his work cut out for him.
Does Jenner have what it takes to show Lucy that what they have is real and worth fighting for?
I loved this book. This is a new author to me, and I’ll most certainly will be checking out more of Kristi’s books. This book is steamy and a forbidden romance between a prosecutor and a judge. The attraction between Jenner and Lucy is immediate and so intense upon their first meeting. You can imagine the surprise when Lucy walks into the courtroom that they both felt, it still doesn’t stop their attraction to each other, even when they know it’s against a conflict of ethics. This is such an amazing story and I highly recommend it.
There are few book that you read and immediately want to read again, but Your Honor is one of those books. Like all of Kristie Pelton’s books, I loved Jenner and Lucy story. Your Honor is forbidden, fun and heartwarming. Definitely a must read.
I completely enjoyed reading this story! Jenner and Lucy were perfect together! The attraction that both of them felt, but could not act upon was powerful. So powerful that they ultimately DID succumb to the attraction. And, that was just the beginning of their love story!!! I loved it all. Every single word, feeling, and touch!!!
