With Good Behavior by Jennifer Lane

With Good Behavior (Conduct, #1)

by Jennifer Lane

In the midst of organized crime and dim hopes of redemption, can love persevere? For Sophie Taylor, a psychologist who lost everything when she violated an ethical boundary, and Grant Madsen, a naval officer who sacrificed himself to protect his uncle, finding that love seems unlikely.

As they start their lives over in Chicago, both fight family influences and run as fast as they can to escape the past. When their paths cross outside their parole officer's door, attraction sparks. Too bad a hidden connection may not only shatter their fledgling love, but prove deadly to them both.

Re-Release in 2017! We have re-edited With Good Behavior (Conduct #1), book one of a complete romantic suspense trilogy.

I read With Good Behavior in a single day, and for a nearly 400 page book, I think that says something about the quality of the book. With Good Behavior was exactly the kind of book I wanted: engrossing, entertaining, and thought-provoking (without being too heavy on the thinking part). I loved how the psychology aspect was woven into this book, and it even got me thinking about my own life and how to improve it. Which, considering With Good Behavior is primarily a romance book, is a pretty neat and unexpected outcome. I also really enjoyed the fact that this was about two ex-cons because ex-cons are not exactly your typical romance novel characters. It's always refreshing to read something different.
