Story Notes

Summary

The Opposing Counsel is a contemporary romance about legacy, betrayal, and a love that refuses to stay in the past. Elise Whitmore has dedicated her life to protecting her late father’s legacy as the legal counsel for Whitmore & Associates. When a hostile acquisition threatens to dismantle everything her family built, she prepares for the fight of her career. She never anticipated that the man leading the takeover would be Alexander Voss — the only man she ever truly loved, and the one she walked away from six years earlier. Back then, their love was all-consuming, terrifying, and impossible under the weight of family expectations. She chose safety. She chose duty. She has regretted it ever since. Now Alexander is cold, powerful, and ruthlessly calculated. He came for her company deliberately, but his motives are far more complicated than simple revenge. As negotiations grow increasingly charged and old wounds reopen, Elise finds herself battling not only for the family business, but against the undeniable pull between them. With her twin brother’s shocking betrayal threatening everything from within, boardroom pressure mounting, and a slow-burn tension that blurs every professional line, Elise must decide what she’s truly willing to fight for — her father’s legacy, or the second chance with the man who still owns her heart.
