Alicia Flint is attending the wedding of her best friend when her eyes meet those of the gorgeous jean-clad man across the room.  Alicia decides then and there that he is the man going home with her, and if his grin is anything to go by, he's agreeable.  Since it is only one night, her reputation is safe, right?

Alicia and Gill Baron indulge themselves in one night of carnal delights, and when Gill kisses Alicia goodbye the next morning, she knows that she'll probably never see him again.  That is, until he walks back into her life less than a week later to a meeting she had scheduled - accompanied by the sheriff.

N. J. Walters is an automatic read for me, and as such, I yearned for the release of A Legal Affair.  I loved both characters tremendously and really thought the storyline of Alicia’s representing an abused wife noteworthy.  But as I finished A Legal Affair I was upset to realize that the plot was not tied up, and while the hero and heroine loved each other, the story was left open.  I can only hope there is another installment to this series so that my issues are resolved.
