Dominic Ashford - Columbia Law rival, privileged son of a judicial dynasty, and the man who stole her future six years ago. At least, that's the story she's been telling herself. Dominic is brilliant, infuriating, and carrying a secret about their shared past that could shatter every assumption she's built her hatred on.
When Judge Calder n orders both attorneys into a locked conference room for forty-eight hours of forced negotiation, the professional distance between them collapses. No phones. No associates. No witnesses. Just two people who've spent six years turning each other into symbols - and forty-eight hours to discover who's actually underneath.
But Dominic is hiding something else. A flaw in his own case. Evidence he should have disclosed. And the longer he stays silent, the more the line between protecting his career and protecting her becomes impossible to hold.
