Breach of Promise — Perri O'Shaughnessy

BROKEN HEARTS. BROKEN PROMISES. DEADLY CONSEQUENCES.

In glitzy Lake Tahoe, couples break up every day. But few are as successful as Lindy and Mike Markov, who built a $200-million business together - before Mike took up with a younger woman. Now he's claiming he doesn't owe Lindy a dime since they never married. Attorney Nina Reilly, struggling to make a living in her one-woman office and raise a young son alone, agrees to take Lindy's case. Nina knows winning is a long shot, even with a brilliant jury consultant and a palimony expert on her side. It's the kind of case - full of passion and explosive secrets - that could make a fortune for a young lawyer. Or drive someone to commit murder - for love, money...or the right verdict.
