Title: Sidebarred (The Legal Briefs, #3,5)
Author: Emma Chase
Expected Publication Date: April 24, 2016
Genre: Contemporary Romance
Summary
There was a time when Jake Becker had it all together. He was controlled, driven, ruthless—in and out of the courtroom.
Then, six irresistible orphans and their heartbreakingly beautiful aunt crashed into his perfectly ordered life. They changed everything. They changed him. Now he’s a husband, an upstanding member of society, a father figure—a family man.
And he’s pretty damn good at it.
Sure, he has to referee sibling smackdowns, re-learn algebra, ensure his clients stay of jail, and keep his wife happy—but it finally feels like he’s got it together again....
So, of course something has to screw it all up. It’s huge. Life-changing. Kind of terrifying.
And it will be the most amazing, perfect thing he’ll ever do.
Teaser
Chelsea sits beside me on the
couch, facing me, her legs tucked, her pretty feet curled under her.
Yes—Chelsea has pretty feet, okay? I never knew feet could be pretty—until I
saw hers.
“So . . . that talk I mentioned
before? We should probably have that now, while we can.”
I take a sip of my drink and nod.
“Yeah—I wasn’t at all hoping you’d forget about it or anything.”
Her face slides into a grin.
“Funny.”
I look back at her, straight-faced.
“I’m a funny guy.”
When she doesn’t say anything for a
few moments, I ask, “What’s up?”
Because now I’m actually getting
concerned. My stomach tightens as I brace for whatever’s worrying her—and
before I even know what I’m up against, in my head I’m already planning all the
ways I’ll take care of it. Because that’s what I do—and I’m good at it.
But what she tells me next blows my
fucking mind.
“I’m late.”
Two words—ten thousand thoughts
exploding in my head at once.
I’m a big guy, six-five, 225 pounds
of muscle. Guys like me, our voices don’t squeak. But at this moment, mine
comes damn close.
“Like . . . for an appointment?”
