Undertow

HAYDEN
Cheerful, doe-eyed, mildly neurotic-Gemma Cane is not at all my type, but when the brown-eyed beauty stormed into my office, all fired up and wearing the garb of a belly dancer, I couldn't tear my gaze away.
She was seeking justice, but I had something else in mind.
She couldn't afford me, but I had other ideas about that, too...
GEMMA
Arrogant, cocky, an outright bully-Hayden Atwater is the sort of man I usually go out of my way to avoid, but when my horrible neighbor stepped way over the line, I wanted to crush him, and to do that, I knew I'd have to fight fire with even hotter fire.
The notoriously cutthroat lawyer was the first weapon I could think of, but the last man I should trust. I realized that as my anger subsided and I registered the predatory gleam in his stormy ocean eyes.
I left his office empty-handed, but now, he won't leave me alone.
I know there can never be anything between us and we are completely impossible, but that word isn't in Hayden's vocabulary. If there's no room for him in my life, he'll make room.
But then, disaster strikes.
Surely now, even Hayden can see that some things really are impossible, and maybe we're one of them.
