Friction (A Legal Affairs Novel)
Sawyer Bennett
Release Date: October 27, 2015
Synopsis:
At the powerhouse law firm of Knight & Payne, winning comes first and ethics a distant second. Leary Michaels uses her female charms to daze opponents, and it’s always worked well—until now. On her most personal case yet, she finds herself going up against a defense attorney just as skilled, shameless, and seductive as she is.
Reeve Holloway has never met a woman as sure of her own sexuality, or as ruthless in wielding it, as Leary is. But he won’t be toyed with. What Leary starts, he’ll finish—in the courtroom, the bedroom, or any-damn-place he wants. The sex is uninhibited, electrifying, and absolutely against the rules. Reeve’s job is to ruin Leary’s case…even if it destroys her in the process and costs him the woman he’s come to love.

Review:
THIS REVIEW of Friction by Sawyer Bennett is created this 5th day of November 2015 by and between Obsessed With Myshelf and the reader of this review, and in contemplation thereof, states as follows:
WHEREAS, Sawyer Bennett has created a perfectly crafted legal landscape full of sexy opposing counsel, serious banter and steaming heat; and
WHEREAS, Reeve is one hell of a fantastic character. His alpha dominance is an incredible turn on and even though he works for an insurance defense firm (OH THE HORROR) he still has a gloriously golden heart; and
WHEREAS, Leary gets the gold star for how-many-ethical-lines-can-we-skirt-in-one day, but is extremely brilliant and extraordinarily ruthless. She’s willing to win, no matter what the cost; however, she wasn’t expecting to find more than just a fuck-buddy in her opposing counsel; and
WHEREAS, the case – that is close to Leary’s heart – continues to get in the way of of Reeve and Leary giving their relationship a real shot…one without secrets.
NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing, the parties agree as follows:
- Bennett knows how to turn the heat WAY UP. I was incredibly jealous of Leary’s office’s lax policies on pretty much everything, but the use of her office as her fuck pad in the middle of the day takes the top of that list.
- I was totally nervous about her relationship with Ford, her really good friend and fellow attorney; but I shouldn’t have been. He turned out to be a fantastic character who I really hope gets his own book…
- If you’re seeking fantastic sex combined with a ridiculously accurate legal plotline (thanks Sawyer for almost making me feel like I was at work), then you need to read this book. I was actually getting fired up about the Motion to Dismiss, wondering if the state had it’s own Twombly standard, before I caught myself and wanted to kick myself in the face. Don’t worry, you won’t have that problem. The legal stuff is just enough to be there – but I don’t think it’s too much that you won’t understand it if you know nothing about the law.
- I adored the banter, increasing feelings and sexual heat between these two. They take risks both in the courtroom and out, which creates tension to hover you on the edge.
- Smart & sexy, Reeve will have you wishing you can search through his briefs. Well done, Sawyer! 4.5 stars!
