My ex. I knew he was trouble from the first moment I laid eyes on him. Fresh out of law school with a new job at one of San Diego’s biggest firms, I was supposed to focus on my career. No distractions, no men, and especially no office romances. Then I met Logan. He was cocky, smooth-talking, and gorgeous—a hotshot associate on the fast track to a partnership and exactly the kind of guy I needed to avoid. But he was relentless. He pursued me, intrigued me, and seduced me. And when I had no defenses left, my ambitions shifted, and I only wanted him. For a while, that was enough. But no one’s perfect. The man who put a ring on my finger isn’t who I thought he was, so I left. Now he’s back in my life, and he’s pushing me into a corner. It’s time to show him how hard I can push back. LOGAN “It’s over.” When those words came out of her mouth, I wasn’t surprised. What I didn’t expect was how damn near impossible it’s been to move on. The first time I saw Paige Waters, the new associate at my firm who was as intelligent and self-confident as she was stunning, I wanted her. I wasn’t used to women rejecting me, but she did—or tried to, anyway—which made me even more determined to have her. I had no idea that when I finally got her, I wouldn’t want to let her go. But I screwed up. She doesn’t even know how badly I screwed up, and everything still went to hell. Now, one year after our split and with so much still unresolved between us, we’re suddenly going head to head on the same case. Seeing her at the office again, where it all started, I realize that this is far from over. She’s still mine. And whether it’s in the courtroom or the bedroom, I always win. less
