Take the Bait (Love in Danger Book 1) by Cindy Dees

Fresh out of law school, Dani Wellford is determined to make her mark with her first solo case. Too bad her mysteriously uncooperative client seems determined to land behind bars. And too bad the smoking hot assistant DA prosecuting the case makes her pulse race every time they clash. Cameron Townsend has an impressive conviction record, but his latest case is proving... challenging. Not because the evidence is weak—it's ironclad. Not because the rookie defense attorney is incompetent—she's smart, funny, and way too sexy. The problem? He can't stop thinking about her, and she's getting dangerously close to costing him the conviction that will make his whole career. Enemies in court, lovers after hours--they're trapped in an impossible choice: honor their oaths as attorneys and lose the person who sets their souls on fire or follow their hearts and betray everything they've ever fought to become. Either way, when the verdict comes in, they''ll both lose something they can't bear to live without. Justice has never been so complicated—or so seductive. Cindy Dees is the New York Times and USA Today bestselling author of over 100 novels and creator/executive producer of an upcoming thriller television series. She draws upon her experience as a U. S. Air Force pilot to create intense suspense and love on the edge of danger. Lovers of Dees’ high-stakes, fast-paced action will find exponentially increasing tension in each scene and pulse-pounding adventure that will keep readers enthralled. -- RT
