So what happens when you have two career driven attorneys who are adversaries in the courtroom but are in agreement when it comes to the bedroom? So will one case decide the fate of Leary Michaels and Reeve Halloway as they go head to head against each other? Will this one case cause a friction in their relationship?
Friction by Sawyer Bennett chronicles two opposing attorneys who are brought together on civil case that means a lot to Leary Michaels. When Leary takes on a case that she has personal ties with, she makes it her mission to get justice for her client and that no one or nothing will stand in her way. Using her feminine charm of brains and seduction, she can easily deduce if the opposing attorney is thinking with his brain or pants. But what Leary didn't expect was to meet another attorney who knew how to challenge her sexually and intellectually. Reeve Holloway was the perfect match for Leary. He was smart, attractive, and cocky as hell. He knew that he affected Leary the same way she did for him. So when they finally decided to act on their sexual attraction, they decided that they can be fuck buddies and they will not let their case affect them or the trial. Leary and Reeve knew to keep their sexual relationship separate from their case. But as they continue to spend more time with each other, their feelings for each other begins to intensify.
Reeve knew his client was an asshole and that Leary was taking on this case because she believed on the integrity of justice. But in the corporate world of insurances where money, power, and intimidation talks, Reeve walks in a fine line of what is morally right. He must make a choice that could totally blindside Leary and could possible cause a friction in their relationship. They say justice is blind, so can Reeve turn his back on his career and do the right and honorable thing? Will Reeve and Leary be adjourning to the bedroom? Or will Leary be finding herself dismissing Reeve?
So what is my final verdict? Well, there is not much to say but I absolutely loved this book. Right off the opening pages, I was addicted. Ms. Bennett did an amazing job integrating layers of justice, romance, steam, sexiness, heart and humanity into the story-line. Sawyer allowed readers to look beyond our judgmental eyes. She allowed them to really feel for each of the characters especially when it came to Leary and her client. I love when a book can captures your heart and Friction did just that. I was instantly drawn to Leary's passion for her client and what she was willing to give up even if it means her law license. So if you want to read a book where passion, humanity, and love prevails, then I highly recommend you to read Friction. Also, I have to testify the Sawyer Bennett has written several steamy moments between Leary and Reeve that will have you attesting that beyond a reasonable doubt that these two were guilty as charge a perfect match for each other.
