Red Society #5: Justice
Justice Scarlet Vergara was born into a life where fairness was nothing more than a cruel joke. As the eldest daughter burdened by her family's crushing debts, she endured years of sacrifice-only to be forced into a loveless marriage with Jacob Scott, the ruthless middle son of a powerful syndicate.
But when Justice is framed for a crime so brutal it threatens to shatter the Scott empire, her only refuge lies in the most dangerous place-Jade Scott, Jacob's younger brother and the man who once owned her heart. Yet, the Jade she loved is long gone, replaced by a manipulator whose motives are as deadly as the world they inhabit.
As lies unravel and the truth cuts deeper than any blade, Justice is forced to confront the darkness within herself-and decide how far she's willing to go to reclaim her life.
In a world where loyalty is an illusion and betrayal lurks in every shadow, survival demands sacrifice, and vengeance comes at a cost. But can Justice carve out her own destiny when everyone around her stands to gain from her downfall?
Her name may be Justice-but in a world ruled by crime and corruption, will she ever find it?

When Attorney Raiven Valiz finds himself in trouble with one of his cases, his life is threatened and a bounty is put on his head. To protect him, the government sends the dazzling and charming Scout Ranger Keiran Sanford. He's exceptionally good at his work and he's a good cook...except that he's the same guy Raiven kissed at a bar two years ago.
******
Attorney Raiven Valiz is cold and indifferent, the kind of lawyer who would defend anyone, good or bad, with money - to him, money was the center of his world, and everything else was a waste of his time. But when a certain Scout Ranger is sent by the government to protect him, Raiven thinks Keiran's piercing blue eyes and sexy smile are far more deadly and dangerous than the criminals after his life, especially when he makes Raiven feel different emotions he's never felt before. To come to terms with Raiven's confused feelings for him, Keiran proposes an agreement Raiven can't reject...an amorous agreement.
