Her Objection (The Chambers Series Book 1)

For Chloe Hartley, a coveted spot as a pupil at the prestigious Firth Chambers is the culmination of years of grueling ambition. She knows the golden rule of law: keep your head down, maintain your professionalism, and absolutely never, ever entertain thoughts about your supervisor. But Victoria Shaw KC—brilliant, icy, and untouchable—makes following that rule a losing battle. Victoria is the epitome of control. She commands the courtroom with surgical precision and maintains a rigid distance that has kept her ascent to the top unblemished for fifteen years. She doesn't break rules, and she certainly doesn't cross lines with her subordinates. When a volatile, high-profile murder trial forces them into a claustrophobic cycle of grueling strategy sessions and midnight discovery, the professional veneer begins to crack. As they fight to prove their client’s innocence, the friction between them ignites into something far more dangerous than office politics. Chloe is determined to prove she belongs, while Victoria discovers that her long-held restraint is no match for the pull of genuine desire. In the high-stakes world of law, one wrong move can destroy a career. But as the line between authority and intimacy blurs, they realize that surrendering to each other might be the greatest risk of all.
