Criminal defense attorney Vivian Sinclair never breaks her rules—until motorcycle enforcer Thorne Kingsley brings her dangerous evidence and an attraction she can’t deny.

Vivian has built her career representing society’s outliers while maintaining strict professional boundaries. Curvy and confident in the courtroom, she’s used to being underestimated—and proving everyone wrong. But when Thorne walks into her office with evidence of a trafficking operation implicating her current clients, her carefully constructed world begins to crumble.

His cool strategic mind and fierce protective streak make him irresistible in all the wrong ways—the exact type of dangerous man she’s sworn to keep at arm’s length. But as threats mount from both ruthless criminals and dirty cops, Vivian finds herself pulled into Thorne’s shadowy world where risks are calculated and justice comes at the edge of a knife.

When her office is ransacked and fabricated charges threaten her career, Vivian has no choice but to accept Thorne’s protection. Forced into hiding together, professional lines dissolve into explosive passion as Thorne shows her that her curves are exactly what he’s always wanted. Everything she thought she knew about herself and the dangerous man who appreciates every inch of her body is challenged.

As the danger closes in from all sides, Vivian must choose between her ethical safety net and trusting a man whose past makes him both her greatest asset and most dangerous liability.

Some boundaries are meant to be crossed. Some rules are meant to be broken. And sometimes, the most dangerous path is the only way to true justice—and unexpected love.
