A wonderful story about two people fighting really what their parents are or at least their presumptions. Candace Gleason has passed the bar and is working for a top law firm in San Francisco, her parents have always been activists and they are famous. They are also lawyers but do not work for any top law firms. Now having the job she has wanted she is hoping to climb the ladder. Her first high profile job is babysitting the boss’s eldest son Jack Morrison, who everyone feels is the black sheep of the family. He has taken his trust fund and is using it against the corporations like his fathers who go in the inner city and displace families giving them nowhere else to move. The reason he does this when he tells Candace really sets the story apart from other books. He is happy she is working with him and his nonprofit company, but does not make easy for her in the beginning. It begins to become dicey when the both of them start to act on the feelings they have for one another and then on top of everything she feels like she betrayed him, but not really. She does something that no other women had ever done and that was track him down, and let me tell you it was not easy. He was not in the U.S. For me I liked the story and the author did a good job of not making you feel or at least me feel like it was a multicultural story, being in one myself I did not pick up on anything and I thought that the writing and the characters, from the lead to even Jack’s sectary were all well-defined. A very good book.

Well written and engaging story , I didn’t like Jack’s character in the beginning just too manupalative and a total jerk but then he started growing on me and I started liking him. Candace was just too good. This is definitely a great story for a weekend read . I really enjoyed reading it. Thank you net gallery for providing me with an Advance copy of this book.

I received an ARC from NG for review.

Jack was a JERK in the beginning of this story and I HATED him. Candace was super adorable and loved her. But something happened and Jack grew on me and I started to really enjoy this story. Candace is a lowly attorney and she gets handed Jack as a client to keep out of the press and jail.

Jack is a man who wants to help the people and sometimes that can mean jail. At times he is extremely manipulative and I hated how he treated Candace but slowly he grew on me.

This book was well written. I just didn't really like Jack much. Candace was the real character I enjoyed. She is kick ass and I loved how she treated Jack. It was a book I enjoyed but not loved.
