Jessica Ames is desperate. Her college-age son, Brandon, has been
arrested for murder, and the evidence is stacked against him. His DNA
matches the blood and skin found under the victim's fingernails, and the
murder weapon was recovered near his apartment. Jessica turns to the
only lawyer she knows for help.
Nate Daniels is no criminal defense attorney; he's a highly successful
corporate litigator. He also has unresolved feelings for Jessica. As her
late husband's best friend, Nate takes the case pro bono, knowing he has
no choice but to do everything within his power to get Brandon
acquitted.
As Nate and Jessica work with the public defender to save her son, the
loyalty, faith, and love between them grows into something more--even as
their investigation is bringing out some very powerful and dangerous
enemies...
