The Best Defense by Carsen Taite
Business and pleasure don't mix, especially when the business is murder.When Aimee Howard, successful boutique real estate broker and socialite, is visited by a team of federal agents looking to arrest her wayward niece, she hires the best defense money can buy. But Aimee begins to question her confidence in the law firm when she learns they've hired a disgraced former police detective to take the lead.
Homicide detective Skye Keaton's shortcuts in the name of justice have finally tipped the scales in the wrong direction. She's lost her job, her pride, and the respect of her family and friends. When an old friend trusts her with a simple task--find a young woman in hiding--she's happy to have the work even though the client is a bossy former debutante who wants to micromanage her every move.
Skye reluctantly decides to let Aimee close to the investigation so she can manage Aimee's expectations, but their professional proximity quickly takes a turn toward passion. Despite their best defenses, as they work together to regain what they've lost, both women find the magnetic attraction that develops between them hard to resist.
Carsen Taite, a Lambda Literary Award finalist, is on a mission to create situations with plot lines as intriguing as the genuine, but often incredible stories she encountered throughout her career as a criminal defense attorney. She has written a number of short tales and more than a dozen novels.
