In the Still of the Night — Terry Lawrence

Her Swashbuckling Hero Lawyer...

Brad Lavalier was the man to help Carolina Palmette protect her grandma's land from a swindler--but working closely with the devilishly sexy attorney wasn't going to be easy! She'd left her Louisiana hometown six years before, driven away by heartbreaking scandal. Now she'd returned to settle the affairs of the woman who'd been like a mother to her--but could she make peace with the past? Brad knew Palmette women were notorious for loving not wisely but too well--and that this proud, beautiful woman was meant to catch fire for him, and him alone! Carolina had never let herself surrender to the possibility of love, but Brad was ready to slay her dragons--and steal a hundred steamy kisses in the sultry Southern night. No woman had ever stirred his blood or provoked him to passion as Carolina did, and together they were hot enough to sizzle in the rain. Could he make her see her grandma was right, that when the right man came along, you gave him everything you had?
