A Problematic Love Synopsis
Eight years after her fiancé was murdered, attorney Megan Kole has fully reconciled two areas of her life: her intelligent son, who never knew his father, and the thriving law practice that is her late father’s legacy. The remainder of Megan’s world stalled in a paralyzing grief that she effectively compartmentalized until a transfer to Seattle brings a handsome, mysterious billionaire into her life.
Daemon Ros has been an outcast since the day he was born. His parents’ lavish but emotionally-vacant lifestyle prompted him to assert his financial independence at a young age. His ailing brother is the only connection he allows to penetrate the vault he has built around his heart, until a devoted mom and her precocious son introduce him to the true meaning of family bonds.
But a chance legal encounter where Megan acts as mediator in a Ros family business dispute leads to far more than either expected. When a shocking truth leads to a love affair between Megan and Daemon that is forbidden in every conceivable way, the barely-restrained chemistry that scorches between them threatens an injunction on everything and everyone they hold dear. As pasts cross, memories threaten, and lies surface in a trial far more deadly than anything inside a courtroom, an arbitration of the heart could prove the only way for them both to make it out alive.

Excerpt - Their Very First Meeting
I knock on the Presidential suite door at the Four Seasons and wait. My palms are drenched, and I can’t seem to stay still. The door opens.
“You must be Ms. Kole, we’ve been expecting you. Please come in.”
The man is probably my age—early to mid-thirties, Asian, and his hair is in a neat ponytail.
He smiles politely. “I’m Min-jae Kang. Please have a seat. Mr. Ros is on a call. He’ll see you shortly.”
“Thank you. It’s a pleasure,” I respond. I’m too nervous to sit. Everything around me is still so foreign. I stop for a moment to take in the breathtaking water views. Mega cargo ships sail by. To the right, an island looms in the background.
In the distance, I hear indistinct talking. After my phone conversation with Daemon, I’m not sure what to expect. I have no clue how this man is going to behave, especially now that his father decided I should mediate on my own. I hate being so unprepared for this meeting. I am completely out of my comfort zone. Right now, I don’t even know what the man looks like.
Min-jae returns. “Ms. Kole, please follow me. Mr. Ros is ready to see you.”
As we approach the room, Mr. Ros’s voice becomes clearer. “They’re fucking incompetent. Tell the legal department I want the whole management team fired immediately, and tell Schwartz he needs to get on a plane and head over there tonight to begin putting things in place. I’ll call you later. I have a meeting.”
The man whom I could only assume is Daemon Ros stands looking out to the view, his back is to me as he ends the call. Chills run through my body.
“Ms. Kole,” he turns to face me.
Blood. Air. Water. All that keeps me alive spirals into a vicious vortex and leaves my body.
Oh my God… it’s Zach!
My Review
Rating: ☆☆☆☆☆
| Rebecca Rohman has done it again and produced another story of the highest quality. This was a breath-taking, edge of your seat read with lots of emotional moments. I was blown away by the plot and the strength of the characters, although Daemon was slightly annoying at times. Everything that happens is so unexpected that you are left reeling by events. This is certainly a problematic love story for Daemon and Megan as surprising discoveries are made that lead to the uncovering of something much more sinister and dangerous. It is also about Daemon finding out that the world is not full of callous and uncaring people as Megan and her son Zach and their family prove time and time again. An awesome read that you won't want to put down until the very end as you find yourself immersed in the ups and downs of these events. |
