Gowns & Gavels: A Sweet, Secret Identity, High Fashion Legal Romance (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781960479310)

She stitched together a new life. Now her past is coming apart at the seams.

Taylor Rousseau walked away from the cutthroat world of LA fashion for a quiet, anonymous life. But now, her worst nightmare struts down the runway: Laurent Delacroix-her former mentor-showcasing designs that aren't his.

Once a celebrated name, Laurent's star has faded. Desperate to reclaim his former glory, he's not just plagiarizing-he's plotting. Without Taylor's talent, his career unraveled. With her stolen work, he's clawing his way back.

What he doesn't know? Taylor's been hiding from the spotlight for years, but now, she's ready to take back what's hers. She'll return to the runway one last time, and this time, she's not backing down.

Enter Clinton Conners: sharply dressed, no-nonsense, and strictly by the book. He doesn't do fashion, and he doesn't do drama. But something about Taylor-her fire, her fight, her flair-has him questioning everything.

What starts as a simple contract dispute becomes a high stakes battle for Taylor's future, and maybe even Clinton's heart.

Witty, emotional, and fiercely stylish, Gowns & Gavels proves that the only thing hotter than haute couture is the spark between a designer and her legal eagle.

Taylor Rousseau thought she'd left the runway behind-until her past came strutting back into the spotlight.
