The Education of Mrs. Hargrove
She built her reputation on precision. She never expected it to be dismantled by desire.
At forty-seven, Dr. Miriam Hargrove is the most formidable forensic economist in the country-a woman whose expert testimony has toppled billion-dollar frauds and whose divorce left her with nothing but the career she chose over everything else. When she's retained as the star witness in a landmark securities prosecution, Miriam expects another flawless performance. What she doesn't expect is Sebastian Voss.
Twenty-nine, brilliant, and dangerously perceptive, Sebastian is the junior attorney who sees past her armour to the woman underneath-the one who stopped believing she was allowed to want anything for herself. As they are drawn together across depositions, courtroom corridors, and late-night case reviews, their intellectual connection ignites into something that threatens both their careers and the ethical lines they've sworn to uphold.
But when the boundaries between professional duty and private longing begin to blur, Miriam must confront the hardest question of her life: Can a woman who chose control over everything learn to surrender to something she cannot predict?
A sophisticated, emotionally devastating slow-burn romance for readers who love intelligent heroines, forbidden attraction, and prose that cuts to the bone.
