Entertainment lawyer Jess Olden is single again after a break-up and ready to meet someone new, but when her best friend singer India Blue is seriously injured, Jess’s own life is put on hold as she waits to hear if her best friend will survive.
Losing her concentration at work means she misses out on the biggest divorce case Hollywood has seen in years. Movie star Teddy Hood has left his wife of six years, Dorcas Prettyman, and she’s intent on making his life hell. Teddy approaches Jess, seeking the best lawyer out there, but distracted by her personal life, Jess turns him down and then watches as his reputation and life is destroyed by his ex.
When India pulls through and starts recovery, Jess returns her focus to her work and feels guilty for what happened to Teddy Hood. Determined to right a wrong, she contacts him and offers to help him regain custody of his young daughter. At first, he is resistant, too damaged by his legal and personal ordeal, but when they meet, there is an immediate attraction.
Trying to remain professional is difficult for them both, and soon Teddy and Jess are falling into a red-hot s****l relationship that leaves wanting more.
However, Dorcas is not a woman to be messed with, and soon she is making life hell for Jess and Teddy in more ways than one. Will the two lovers finally be able to love freely, and will Teddy ever get custody of his daughter?
When Dorcas crosses a line, more than just love is put at risk as she makes it clear that she will never, ever let Teddy find happiness again…
Jess
Nothing mattered to me more in the last year than putting the man who tried to kill my best friend in jail.
Nothing.
So, when Hollywood star Teddy Hood asked me to represent him in his child custody battle, I had to turn him down.
Now, a year later, I’ve never regretted anything more.
Teddy Hood is angry, hurt… and sexy as all hell.
The trouble is he hates me.
The trouble is I can’t stop thinking about him.
I have to get him to forgive me and I’ll do anything to make that happen.
Because I need him in my life… and in my bed.
I want to feel his skin next to mine, his mouth on my body, his kiss on my lips…
I just have to get him to talk to me first and that…
That’s going to be the hardest thing in the world…
Teddy
She turned me down a year ago and now I’ve lost custody of my kid, maybe forever.
I hate Jessica Olden and I don’t care that it’s not fair to blame her…
…but I do.
But it drives me mad that I can’t get her out of my head: her big beautiful eyes, her dark hair, that perfect pink, pouty mouth…
Jess Olden is the most beautiful woman I’ve ever seen in my life, and I’m one of Hollywood’s biggest stars—hey, I could have any woman I want.
Any woman.
But the one I want is the one I don’t want.
I need to get her out of my head…
…it just won’t be easy…
