About the Book:

Josephina Jensen, a feisty, justice-seeking divorce lawyer, reluctantly returns to the courtroom after a four-year absence, to help a woman collect an award worth several million dollars from her unscrupulous ex-husband. This decision forces her to cross swords with the brilliant, infuriating, yet ever-so-charming attorney, Richard Diamond, and the ex-husband who will stop at nothing to prevent the dismantling of his empire. Little does anyone know that someone from Josephina’s past is also at work, intent on taking care of unfinished business by stopping her permanently.

My Review:

Holy Cow! I read this in one day. I started it and suddenly looked up and two hours had gone by! I was immediately pulled into the story. It’s a mix of mystery and rich people behaving badly. There’s some super unlikable side characters, but I also couldn’t look away. I had to know what selfish thing they would do next. I loved it. Josephina, however, is a main character I loved to root for. I love watching characters grow and change, especially when past traumatic events are hovering right on the edges of their lives. There are so many twists and turns as the mystery unravels, I was at the edge of my reading chair. It felt like a juicy soap opera I could get lost in. I did NOT see the ending coming and it was crazy in the best possible way. A highly entertaining and engaging read!
