Publisher Description
**This is Book 2 in the Mine to Keep series, MUST BE READ IN ORDER. Lawsuit and Leather is book 1**
Kissing my older boss, Alejandro Rivera-Marquez, on the edge of a rooftop was supposed to be perfect. And it was, until my first love, Parker Jones, had him arrested.
Alejandro was Hollywood's hottest star and biggest bad boy, and the secrets swirling his recent lawsuit had my best friend and New York's most vicious lawyer, Parker, desperate to keep me from suffering the same fate as the mysterious woman who circled Alejandro's case.
Parker wanted to prove that Alejandro was a bad man, and I wanted to prove him wrong. But when Alejandro abandoned me following shocking accusations, I was left questioning everything I believed about him, about us.
Left alone and heartbroken, Parker was determined to remain the one constant in my life, stealing me away for our annual summer vacation, where our relationship as I knew it would change forever.
I never wanted to be caught in a triangle with two of the most powerful men in my life, let alone stuck between one's unbreakable promise and the other's unspeakable secret.
How could I ever choose one relationship when I know it will cost me the other?
*Due to continuing book in series, will end with a cliffhanger. Recommended for readers who are eighteen and up due to sensative topics.
Customer Reviews
SO GOOD!
This book is EVERYTHING.
You know that quote - Some books you read. Some books you enjoy. But some books just swallow you up heart and soul.
That’s it. That’s how I feel.
Once I started reading I could not stop. I was pulled right in with all of the angst and suspense, the slow burn is SO GOOD.
Gemma has been through so much, and I could not love her more. I was so proud of her in this book for standing up for herself and making decisions based on what she wanted instead of trying to please everyone. She has the biggest heart, and I can relate to her in so many ways.
Alejandro meant business this time around when it came to Gemma. He was determined that she would be his. And the mouth on him? Whew. I liked that we got more background about his past and his thoughts.
Parker got bold! And I’m here for it!! It was nice to see Parker really come out for what he wanted instead of hiding it because of promises he made. I’m totally team Parker all the way.. there’s just something about him that pulls at all my heart strings.
I’m not sure how it’s all going to end.but we’ll see.. bring on book three!
I need book 3!
When I finished Lawsuit and Leather I could not decide if I was Team Parker or Team Alejandro and after reading Promise and Punishment I’m in the same position. This book was a freaking rollercoaster and I was on the edge of my seat to see how things would play out.
The angst, suspense, and slow burn that was this book had me in a chokehold. I could not rest until I had finished this book and I’m waiting for book 3 with bated breaths to see how Gemma, Parker and Alejandro’s story will end.
Rating: 5/5 ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
