Bella's life takes an unexpected turn when her husband is arrested as a suspect in the murder of his colleague. She will do anything to get the love of her life out of jail. 

The only problem is, she will be facing her sworn enemy, Adam Walton, in court who's convinced that Rendell is a murderer and is eager to put him behind bars. The most difficult task for her is that she will have to talk to Adam, the most arrogant and intimidating individual on this planet, but also the most gorgeous man with a stupefying dressing sense.  

Bella just has two missions. One, prove Rendell's innocence and two, avoid Adam at all costs, but Adam has other plans and he will do anything to both prove Rendell guilty as charged and make Bella notice him for personal reasons. 

But everything is not as it seems and Bella is about to discover secrets she didn't know existed, and how hard it is to pretend not to notice her sworn enemy and his smoldering sexy gaze. 
But she is ready to play this pretend game if she wants to protect her heart.

When Madison Hartley, a brilliant and ambitious Harvard-educated lawyer from Manhattan's elite Upper East Side, takes on the biggest case of her career, she's prepared for the legal fight of her life. Her client, billionaire industrialist Chase Reynolds, is accused of a gruesome murder, and Madison knows this high-profile case could make or break her career. But there's a catch. Chase insists his "brother" join the defense team-Jackson Reid, a lawyer by training but better known as the enigmatic, leather-clad enforcer of a notorious motorcycle gang. Rugged, unpolished, and unapologetically crass, Jackson is the polar opposite of Madison's immaculate, pedigree lifestyle. From the moment they meet, sparks fly, and not the good kind. Madison hates his reckless bravado and disdain for societal norms, while Jackson can't stand her cold, prim perfection. But when their mutual disdain gives way to moments of undeniable, fiery chemistry, the lines between hate and lust blur. Through late nights in the courtroom and darker nights in his garage, they clash, collide, and ultimately combust. But as the murder case spirals into a web of secrets, betrayal, and danger, Madison and Jackson realize they're fighting not just for justice but for something far more personal. Can Madison let go of her perfectly planned life for a man who doesn't fit the mold? Can Jackson believe he's worthy of a woman like her? Will they find themselves on the same side-or worlds apart?
