Seconds Freya Barker

Love, life...death-a few seconds can change everything.




I'm a criminal defense lawyer determined to build my own firm from the ground up.

My ex, the new prosecutor, complicates things; especially when the animosity between us infects the whole courtroom.




Then I meet Callum-my brother's friend, a bounty hunter, and the accused in my new case.

The charge-sexual battery.

The supposed victim-a bail jumper he's been chasing halfway across the country.




My instincts tell me he's innocent, which I set about proving, but I didn't expect to fall for him in the process.

Our mutual attraction becomes a tempting complication neither of us can resist.




When a body turns up, Callum and I realize a war is raging around us; and one of us is the target. With an ex-husband eager to take me down, and a woman determined to ruin Callum, we need to figure out who the perpetrator is...before time runs out.
