About This Book

Determined to become the first African-American partner at one of L.A's most prestigious law firms, employment attorney Vernetta Henderson is thrilled when she's tapped to defend a prominent socialite accused of murder-until she learns that Neddy McClain will try the case with her. The only other African-American attorney at the firm, Neddy is hot tempered and distant, making a complex case even tougher to handle. But the women vow to put aside their differences to prove the client's innocence.

Coping with the mourning pressures of defending a high-profile murder case proves challenging, and as the case starts to garner media attention, Vernetta has no choice but to spend more time in the office. Vernetta's new husband, Jefferson, unwittingly adds more stress to the mix. He is anxious to start a family, a venture she isn't quite ready to undertake. Tired of being placed on the backburner, Jefferson's patience begin to wear thin. As Vernetta's professional life dangerously intrudes upon her personal life, she soon comes to realize that providing a client with the best possible defense could come at a very high price. A victory on the case should be sweet, but how will it be without the man she loves by her side?
