Seducing the Defendant by Chantal Fernando

4.0

Seducing the Defendant was an excellent 2nd book in the conflict of Interest by Chantal Fernando. Jaxon Bentley represents Scarlett Reyes, who has been accused of killing her dirty cop husband. Scarlett is learning dirty secrets her husband was hiding from her and thinking she might be going to jail because all of the evidence is pointing at her. Jaxon believes Scarlett is innocent, now he has to prove it. Somewhere along the way lines are getting blurred; will Jaxon and Scarlett become more than lawyer and client?

This story had many sweet moments, it will have you laughing out loud, and it will tug at your heartstrings. I never saw this ending coming and it was very emotional. Jaxon and Scarlett are very lovable characters, like the first book the secondary characters were scene stealers. You even got to see some characters from Chantal’s Wind Dragon MC series in this book. I can’t wait to see who will be Approaching the Bench next.
