Court reporter Alanna Reid lives by one rule: nobody remembers the court reporter. She arrives early, eats before, owns seven gray cardigans, and takes down every word said on the record, and not one word said off it.
Then general counsel Graham Ellison sits down to be deposed in a wrongful death lawsuit against a powerful pharmaceutical company. He doesn't look at the lawyers. He doesn't look at the view.
He looks at her.
During a fifteen-minute break, with the lawyers out in the hall and Alanna under the conference table fixing a power cord, Graham makes a phone call he thinks no one can hear. One sentence, enough to blow the case wide open. Then he goes back on the record and lies.
She saw his face when he said it. He saw her hands stop.
Now a black sedan is parked on her street, a stranger knows exactly when her mother walks to the grocery store, and the one man Alanna can't read is the one she can't stay away from. Graham has spent his career making problems disappear, and Alanna is the first one he wants to keep.
In a case where the truth could end both their careers, falling for the witness might be the one thing she can't take back.
Sharp, funny, and seriously steamy, Off the Record is a forbidden workplace romance wrapped in a legal thriller. Perfect for readers who love:
- A heroine who notices everything
- A morally gray hero who's obsessed with her
- Forbidden workplace tension
- Forced proximity during a storm
- Banter with bite
- A cat named Objection
Steamy scenes. Intended for readers 18+.
