Whatever It Takes

I get what I want. That’s how it’s always been. Until her. She’s five foot seven of pure beauty poured into a pencil skirt and blouse, and she hates my guts. My arrival at the law firm has derailed her plans of making partner, but it’s not my fault I steal the limelight everywhere I go. When our boss throws us together on a difficult case, the competition begins. She’s hard headed, clever, and unpredictable. I love it. And something tells me she does too. But she’s forbidden fruit. And all I want is to take a bite. There’s no going back if I do. It’s love or my future. Or maybe there’s a way to have both. If so, I’ll do whatever it takes to make it happen. Even break the rules.
