The Devil's Advocate

​The Devil's Advocate

​One is a master of the law. The other is a king of the lawless.

​Elena Vance is the "Ice Queen" of Chicago's legal world. Methodical, brilliant, and untouchable, she has spent a decade erasing the shadow of her father's criminal past. But Elena has a secret-a jagged white scar on her neck and a memory of a boy with amber eyes who spared her life ten years ago. She thought she had escaped the darkness. She was wrong.

​Dante Moretti is a monster wrapped in a bespoke suit. As the head of the Moretti Syndicate, he rules the city through fear and refined violence. When he is framed for a murder he didn't commit-or so he claims-he doesn't hire a lawyer; he claims one.

​When Elena is forced to defend the man who haunts her nightmares, she finds herself trapped in a high-stakes game of cat and mouse where the courtroom is the least of her worries. Someone is mimicry-ing Dante's every move, and they want both of them dead. ​To survive, Elena must enter Dante's world-a fortress of gothic luxury and blood-stained secrets. But as the line between protector and predator blurs, she realizes the most dangerous thing isn't the hitman in the shadows or the evidence on her desk. It's the soul-shattering heat between her and the man she's supposed to hate.
​In the city of wind, some fires never go out. And in Dante's arms, Elena is about to learn that the only thing more addictive than justice... is the devil himself.

​The Trope Checklist:

​Enemies-to-Lovers: Ten years of history and a bitter courtroom rivalry.

​Forced Proximity: Trapped together in a remote, high-security estate.

​Touch Her and You Die: A possessive hero who will burn the city for his lawyer.

​Morally Grey Leads: A lawyer willing to break the rules and a killer who plays by his own.
