The Prosecutor by Adrienne Giordano: For the last 18 months, Emma Sinclair’s life has revolved around proving that her brother was wrongly convicted of murder. The case against her brother was circumstantial but, no defense attorney is willing to help her fight for a reversal. It is not until she receives video evidence, a deathbed confession that the case gains media attention. This is when the pace of the story gains momentum.
The author introduces the Hennings siblings – defense attorney, Penny and state prosecutor, Zac. It was very amusing to watch the interplay between these two – it lighten the overall story and provided humor. The cast of characters were very realistically generated, with in-depth character development.
The plot was intriguing. It is a rare treat to discover a story where both the suspense and romantic elements are so well balanced. The author used vivid descriptions to highlight the chemistry between Emma and Zac. She cemented the relationships with great dialogue. I am hoping that the author plans to revisit these astounding characters – I demand stories be written for both Penny and Brian.
I had a total crush on Zachary- Emma is a lucky girl.
“Oh, that smile – charming and slick and devilish. The man knew his way around a woman’s heart. And most likely other body parts as well.”
I recommend this to all romance readers. You will understand while these two opposing sides find it impossible to maintain objectivity.
