Parker's Proceedings

With permission from my publisher, Simply Sexy Reads, I am posting an excerpt from Parker's Proceedings, the first short-story in The Legal Battle series.

Ashlee Rosenthal just hit the big 4-0, and life is as boring as watching paint dry. She's a lawyer, which she loves, her son is grown and moved out, she hasn't seen a movie in the cinemas in almost a decade, and her friendships are limited to a best friend half way across the country, a quirky assistant who talks faster than a freight train, and a chinchilla who thinks the countertops in her kitchen are its own personal bedroom.
Just as she's contemplating doing something drastic and crazy in able to get some excitement in her life, Parker Bensley, a 20-something professional basketball player, walks into her office to file for divorce from his wife, and Ashlee's libido is standing up and taking notice for the first time in forever. But he's her client, and it would be considered a conflict of interest for her to feel anything toward him. So she shuts down her sexy thoughts and focuses on the case.

Until Parker makes the first move, and everything she had done to ensure she never compromised the case is thrown out the window. Ashlee knows it's all kinds of wrong, but, damn, does it feel oh-so-good. Will she be able to keep her libido in check to finish the case?
