Conduct Unbecoming a Judge

Thunderstruck, Book Two

Rich or poor, sick or healthy, everyone needs love.

For Esme Fernandes, life ended at thirty. First, she lost her ability to have children, and then she lost her husband to another woman. Now forty-two, she's rebuilt herself as a fierce federal judge who's sworn off relationships for good.

Jack Bullard, twice named People's Sexiest Man Alive, is at a crossroads. Two years after a bewildering and brutal divorce, he misses his son and wants his life back.

When Jack and Esme collide—literally—sparks fly. But they also attract attention from the moment they meet, which threatens Esme's career before it even begins.

Just as Jack can see the future forming, the increasing scrutiny awakens Esme's demons—and Jack has no idea how to fight a ghost.
