Taylor Lockwood spends her days working as a paralegal in one of New York’s preeminent Wall Street law firms and her nights playing jazz piano anyplace she can. But the rhythm of her life is disrupted when attorney Mitchell Reece requests her help in locating a stolen document that could cost him not only the multimillion-dollar case he’s defending but his career as well.
Eager to get closer to this handsome, brilliant, and very private man, Taylor signs on…only to find that as she delves deeper and deeper into what goes on behind closed doors at Hubbard, White & Willis, she uncovers more than she wants to know–including a plentitude of secrets damaging enough to smash careers and dangerous enough to push someone to commit murder. Yet who is capable of going to that extreme? With her life on the line, Taylor is about to learn the lethal answer…
Taylor gets seconded to Mitchell Reece, a lawyer at the firm. An important piece of paper has been stolen from Mitchell’s office and he wants Taylor to not only find the piece of paper but also the person who stole it. The further Taylor delves the deeper in the poo she gets. There is no one, and I mean no one, she can trust. Things escalate to the point where Taylor’s life is in danger.
