Take a wild ride though the Tampa, Florida court system with this wonderful, fast-moving tale of attorney rivalry. Anderson Parker used to work for Justin Cartwright III before Anderson set up his own law firm and the two were friendly rivals. That is, until Anderson found himself up against Justin, who crossed an ethics line during the case. As a result, Justin had his law license suspended for two months and now Justin wants revenge against Anderson. So, he hires a bright, beautiful paralegal named Nicole to go work for Anderson and then get him into a compromising position (including pictures). Nicole does her part, and Justin distributes the pics just as Anderson is about to complete a high-profile case. Anderson countersues Justin for interference with business and malicious prosecution. As their wives, employees, and Nicole become involved in the case, the waters seem muddier than ever. Who will side with whom in the end?
If you love legal novels, you'll really love this one. Not only do you learn some law along the way, but Cody Davis's writing style keeps you engaged from the first page to the last. Bravo!
