Excerpt
Those damn leather gloves, I blame them.
I run my fingers through my hair to blow out at the wet strands that have stuck around my lips, and I grab my glass and gulp the remainder of my week old wine, before flopping back against the couch to collect my thoughts.
Seriously though, what the hell was that?
Pacer Fratelli is my client! A dangerous client. A client who I know is a murderer.
I can’t feel like this, but I do.
His smile flashes before my eyes again. Oh my god, would you just leave me the hell alone? I punch my fists down onto the chair, either side of me.
I strip down as I head to the shower, peeling off each layer like I’m shedding skin and discarding the clothes on the floor with an angry slap. My body is still abuzz with my post-assault, but at the same time, I am pissed off. These thoughts have no place in my mind. They can fuck right off.
A after a good talking to myself in the stream of the cold shower, I throw on my old university sweats, ready to see my night out in front of the coffee table … and all things Pacer Fratelli.
Dangerously hot, Pacer Fratelli.
Gah!

My Review
In the world of the infamous Legano Family, infamy has it's perks but when one of its infamous members, Pacer Fratelli, is brought up on murder charges, life gets a little more interesting for defense lawyer, Chelsea Tanner.
Chelsea and Pacer are words apart and completely different from one another. Chelsea is soft where Pacer is hard. Pacer is cold where Chelsea is bright. Any yet the attraction between the two is there.
TJ Hamilton is a talented author and it shows in her words and how she brings this story together. Defending Pacer is an attention grabber from the get go. Full of suspense, murder, mystery, and twists I didn't see coming, Defending Pacer also has a fun and sweet side full of romance to it.
While I loved the romance between Pacer and Chelsea, I also loved the intrigue the book has to it. And Pacer.. Oh, Pacer! Seriously, given his background, you would think that this is not the guy for you or the guy you would root for. You couldn't be more wrong! I fell completely and madly in love with Pacer. The bad boy in him is so delicious and irresistible. He is a cocky, dirty talking naughty boy. Hard and relentless is just one side of him, he's also sweet and sexy. Basically Pacer is the full package. I LOVE PACER.
Chelsea is such a strong, beautiful, and determined woman. Although on the right side of the law, I seriously could not blame her for crossing the line when it came to Pacer. I'd do the same thing in her position.
And oh, that ending! For being a first time reader to this author's work, I was surely not disappointed.
Five 'utterly delicious, oh my, those leather gloves' Stars!
