I’m falling for the man I’m supposed to destroy in court, and his family is the reason my father lost everything.

Nik Karras is the enemy. Literally. I’m the attorney taking down his company, and he knows it.

Then his cousin, my best friend, drags me to a family dinner I can’t escape. And suddenly I’m sleeping under his roof, trying to remember why I hate him.

I do a terrible job of remembering.

He softens exactly once, just enough. He knows the workers’ names. He pulls me out of danger and doesn’t let go, and I kiss him before I can stop myself.

Then I find out his family covered up the port scandal that destroyed my father when I was nineteen.

He knew. And he let me fall anyway.

Now someone’s following me, my career is in flames, and Nik is standing between me and everyone who wants to bury this.

The worst part? I think I believe him.
