The lovers in this book have to face their pasts & forgive each other before they can build a relationship. The hero prosecuted the heroines father in a well-publicized trial several years ago & she hates him because her father died in prison. She went from the lap of luxury to living in poverty and working at a dead end job while finishing her college education. Read it to find out how they deal with the past, how their relationship will affect his chances for becoming appointed as a judge, and how they deal with his unpleasant ex-wife and her even more unpleasant boss. In the end, compromises are made and all obstacles are overcome as they realize that there is nothing more important than being together.
