A Verdict in the Dark: A Steamy Rival-Lawyers Romance of Masks, Secrets, and Forbidden Desire. Enemies to Lovers Romance

In court, they are rivals. Outside it, they are barely civil.

Then an exclusive masked club gives them something neither expected: anonymity.

Behind different names and hidden faces, the tension that makes them dangerous opponents becomes something far more addictive. For once, Adrian can want a woman without asking where it leads. Evelyn can surrender control without risking the carefully ordered life she protects.

There is only one problem.

The stranger who understands them in the dark is the same person they cannot stand in daylight.

As professional battles intensify and their separate worlds begin edging dangerously close together, every encounter raises the stakes. One exposed identity could wreck reputations, destroy trust, and turn desire into evidence neither of them can explain away.

Adrian has spent years proving marriage is a mistake. Evelyn knows better than to trust a man who treats love like a losing case.

But some verdicts are impossible to argue.

And when the masks finally become too heavy to wear, one of them will have to risk being seen first.
