About this series
From critically acclaimed author Lee Christine comes three tense, taut stories where top lawyers and bad boys clash, but the one thing they can't dispute is attraction...
In Safe Hands
She thinks she needs him, but she doesn't know the secrets he keeps…
Threatened with the publication of naked photographs taken in her law student days, defence attorney Allegra Greenwood enlists the help of former SAS Commander Luke Neilson, unaware of his involvement in her brother's death in Afghanistan.
In a race to stop the photographs appearing on the internet, Luke battles a hidden enemy, his growing feelings for Allegra, and his conscience, which demands he protect a fallen comrade's sister. As the stakes increase and more sinister motives unfold, Luke not only has to fight to save her career, he has to fight to save her life.
In Safe Arms
Smooth, seductive and savage: Lee Christine returns to the dark, criminal underbelly of Sydney with her follow–up to In Safe Hands.
Legal secretary Josephine Valenti has no idea why a notorious bikie president would be contacting her, but when he is murdered in front of her eyes, she knows that she is in very deep trouble. Fleeing to her home, she's intercepted by Nate Hunter, a man she used to know and lust after…a man she used to care about.
However, Nate has changed. His leathers and his bike tell of a lifestyle that Josie can't begin to accept or understand. His is a life of drugs, money laundering and prostitution.
But all is not what it seems, and Josie must fight harder than she ever has before – for the truth, for what's right, and, ultimately, for the man who still has a hold of her heart.
In Safe Keeping
From Lee Christine, the critically acclaimed author of In Safe Hands, comes a tense, taut, urban romantic suspense about two lawyers, a high–profile divorce case and an attraction that even opposing counsels can't shut down.
It was only supposed to be a casual affair, a stress–relieving, night–time romp, a secret just between the two of them. But when divorce lawyer Laila Richards ends up on the opposite side of the bench to high powered lawyer Evan Barclay in a very public, very high–profile divorce, she knows their fling will jeopardise the case of her career, and breaks off the relationship.
Stunned by Laila's decision, Evan vows to make the beautiful lawyer deal with him, both in and out of the courtroom. But when suspicious activity begins to emerge, and Laila's safety is threatened, Evan fears his client – his best friend, the son of the only family Evan has ever known – may be involved.
Bound by client confidentiality and battling a massive conflict of interest, Laila and Evan fight to win, fight for justice, and fight for a chance at a relationship that's anything but casual.
