Spirit of the Law

The first time Summer Byrne met hard-nosed prosecutor Owen Lassiter, Summer was the jury forewoman who delivered the verdict that ruined Owen's winning streak. Summer never expected to see Owen again, but a brush with a stranger pulls her back into a life she'd rather forget and back into the path of the wildly attractive, infuriating prosecutor who refuses to accept evidence she can't see with her own eyes.Owen Lassiter knows the law, knows her own mind, and doesn't have time for half-baked theories from a woman who hears voices from the great beyond. When Summer Byrne—her nemesis—offers a window into the murder case Owen's getting ready to try, hell no doesn't begin to describe how Owen feels. But working with Summer as a consultant reminds her that Summer is as enticing as she is aggravating and promises to be a life-changing experience that neither is ready to embrace.

A Frozen Woman

A Frozen Woman charts Ernaux's teenage awakening, and then the parallel progression of her desire to be desirable and her ambition to fulfill herself in her chosen profession - with the inevitable conflict between the two.
