My story isn’t a love story … not the typical kind anyway.
As a lawyer, I’m used to discovery, but I never saw this one coming.
Every day, River gives me ten reasons to stay away, and then eleven reasons why I can't. Our relationship was to remain strictly business, or at least I tried.
Four years of marriage, and everything with Cole has changed. I never knew two people who lived together could be so distant. But I’m not ready to give up on him.
One man wants to break me.
The other is just trying to get even.
Both are lying to me.
***This is a standalone contemporary romance (though a little unconventional and twisted!)
Excerpt #4
“Do you shower yourself in arrogance every morning, Mr. Holtz? You may want to use a little less next time.” My toes curl in the water, but I hold my voice steady.
He grips my hips, sliding my body close to his. If his cock is any indication, he’s just as turned on by this back and forth as I am. “Just admit you like it. You like having someone take care of your every need. You like having all my attention, and you definitely like my cock.”
“River,” I breathe as he kisses a line from my jawline to my shoulder.
“Admit it. You like me,” he says, his lips moving against my skin.
My fingers curl against his back. “Make me,” I taunt, enjoying the way he teases.
He groans, his lips pulling away from me. He stares, his eyes only inches from mine. He’s baiting the truth, but something tells me he already knows. And, I can’t stand that he’s not touching me, not when his words still play over and over in my head. I want to know what he’s capable of; it’s hard to believe I haven’t already seen and felt the best of him.
He cocks his head to the side, and I can’t take it. “I kind of like you. Now, kiss me.” As I hear my own words, I realize they’re true. I kind of like River Holtz, and I’m not quite sure how I feel about that.
“Kind of?” he asks, lifting his brow.
Damn him. If someone would have told me eleven days ago when River walked in my office that I’d be telling this man I like him let alone naked in his tub, I would have called them crazy.
“I like you,” I blurt before pressing my lips to his. I’m completely consumed. Addicted.

“It’s a good thing you’re not my type.” “And why’s that?” He leans a little closer. “I won’t be tempted to Fu$$ you. I’d hate to have to hire a new attorney.”
All I have to say is WOW, I didn’t see that coming.

One man wants to break me.
The other is just trying to get even.
Both are lying to me.
We meet Marley and quickly discover that she is very lonely. She is married to Cole, who Marley also works with at their firm. Cole is always gone on business and they don’t seem to be as close as they used to be.
We also meet River, a client that is looking for some help with a club he wants to open.
He is stirring up some feelings in Marley that are making her feel guilty even thinking them. She tries to keep him at arm's length, until her Birthday when Cole doesn’t come home to spend it with her. She is over her marriage to Cole and takes River up on his offer of going out, it ends up being a weekend of intense, and hot passion. Unfortunately she comes home to a very pissed of Cole, this is where the sh%& really starts to hit the fan.
Will Cole and Marley work out their issues? Will Marley be able to stay away from River?
We’re bound to screw up along the way, but as long as we’re willing to go back to where we went wrong and start over, our love will never fail. We’re stronger than our mistakes.
I LOVED this book. There are several twists that I did not see coming and really threw me for a loop. I also loved Beatrice and her loyalty to Marley, she added a great element to the story.
If you like hot sex, with some unexpected twists you will definitely want to 1-click Break Even today. Thank you for a great read, Lisa DeJong.
