Breaching the Contract by Chantal Fernando

Breaching the Contract (The Conflict of Interest, #1)

by Chantal Fernando

New York Times bestselling author Chantal Fernando returns with a brand new series about a brigade of lawyers who, despite being bad boys at heart, always end up just on the right side of the law.

Katerina Dawson knows exactly what she wants from life. And as the new associate at the top law firm in the city, she’s ready to live out her dreams of becoming a criminal lawyer. But going on coffee runs and babysitting kids during the day was definitely not what she had in mind. She knows that anyone else would kill to be in her shoes, but she has to draw the line somewhere. That’s easier said than done, though, when Kat has to confront her handsome boss…

Tristan Channing and Jaxon Bentley run a successful law firm together and the two partners couldn’t be busier right now. When Jaxon suddenly takes a leave of absence, Tristan begrudgingly assumes responsibility of the new associate, the hot new associate, who has curves for days. Needing to keep his distance from her, Tristan sends Kat on needless errands and has her doing work even an intern wouldn’t touch, like picking up his kids. But his plan backfires when he sees his children grow attached to Kat and sees her getting comfortable in his home. It triggers something deep within him, and it feels right to have her there. Will Tristan be able to keep his work and personal lives separate, or will he find that his heart holds the final verdict?

The blurb lured me in, saying it was a series about 3 hot lawyers. But what i got instead was a rookie lawyer trying to find her footing starting her first job and the disjointed relationship she has with one of the partners.

The relationship between the H/h didn’t seem plausible. She’s irritated that he has her running errands, she visits his kid in the hospital and then they’re together. I needed some relationship development and I didn’t feel like I got that.
