Brody's been a lawyer for years and has helped police put away many offenders. He's not afraid of them and never takes their threats seriously. Until now.

The man he's after in his new domestic violence case is willing to go farther than anyone he's dealt with before. Brody can handle threats made towards himself, but when the threat is against his wife, things go to an entirely new level. Not only that, but he has a duty to his client, to keep her alive until she's free and safe.

Brody's every instinct is to go after this guy himself, to protect his family at all costs. His law-abiding brain has another opinion though. If Brody goes after this guy, he could ruin his case, his career, and lose his client. If he follows the law and plays by the book, he could keep his career, win his case, protect his client even, but will he lose his wife in the process?

*This book can be read as the first in a character-connected stand-alone series, or as the sequel to the first book. This book sets the tone for the rest of the series, following our lawyer's cases and a romance.

There are descriptive scenes of domestic violence, abuse, hostage, and kidnapping situations. If you are uncomfortable reading about someone being hit, kicked, spit on, held at knifepoint, or put in suggestive situations, I wouldn't recommend reading. This is intended for audiences 18+ due to the romance.*
