As a powerhouse attorney, I always played to win. With my flawless track record, razor-sharp mind, and reputation that preceded me, my brothers and I built an empire on control and precision. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eRelationships didn't fit into my carefully ordered world-compliments of a woman I once loved. There wasn't one person who could break through my carefully constructed walls until I met Laurel Evans, a beautiful and brilliant attorney with a brilliant mind. The problem? She was everything I didn't want in my life-a single mom to three young daughters and a knack for turning my perfectly calculated life upside down. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eMy past had taught me that attachments only led to pain, and that was a pain I wasn't willing to experience again. I stood on the battlefield, drawn to her warmth and chaotic home life. The more we worked together, the closer we grew. She and her daughters slowly chipped away at the wall I'd built over the years, and I had a decision to make. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eWas I willing to take a chance on the one thing I always avoided? \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cb\u003eLaurel\u003c\/b\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eAt thirty-one, I was the devoted mother of three beautiful little girls-my entire world and everything I would fight to protect. Since my husband's life was tragically cut short in a kayaking accident, I navigated the challenge of raising them alone with the support of my parents. Starting over, I moved to Los Angeles and took a position at \u003ci\u003eThe Hamilton Group\u003c\/i\u003e, a prestigious law firm known for its dominance and prestige. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThat's where I met Julian Hamilton-ruggedly handsome, confident, and impossible to ignore. He was arrogant, self-assured, and far too charming for his own good. His cocky smile and overconfidence had the power to make my heart race and my walls crumble. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eCrossing professional lines was supposed to be out of the question, yet one drunken night changed everything-blurring boundaries and throwing my life into unimaginable chaos. I never wanted to risk my girls' stability or happiness. I swore that night would be the end of it, but I couldn't resist him. There was something about Julian-something I couldn't explain-that had me caught in his pull. It wasn't just me. My daughters were also under his influence, whether we liked it or not. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eWhen a shocking truth is revealed, my past and present collide, and I must confront the betrayal that shattered the lives I'd fought so hard to protect. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ci\u003eTwisting, emotional, and steamy, \u003c\/i\u003e\u003ci\u003eCause and Effect\u003c\/i\u003e\u003ci\u003e is a gripping legal romance about betrayal, resilience, and the courage to love again. \u003c\/i\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e18+\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 236\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.5 x 8 x 5 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e April 09, 2025\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48501726609629,"sku":"9798317372750","price":30.76,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0811\/9867\/8237\/files\/kXRcHHokyC9798317372750.webp?v=1788494376","url":"https:\/\/handfulofbooks.com\/products\/cause-and-effect-hamilton-brothers-series-book-two-paperback","provider":"Handful of Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
