You Matter (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781633040502)

Chrissy Kramer became pregnant during her senior year of high school and was abandoned by her parents, her boyfriend, and her friends. She became a loner, working hard to provide for her son. It was her and him against the world. She eventually earns a paralegal degree and works for a powerful female attorney, Reggie Esposito, a senior law partner at a leading Boston law firm.

Chrissy's smitten from the beginning, but she refuses to jeopardize her job by acting on her feelings. When a disgruntled former client attempts to kill Reggie after she loses his lawsuit, Chrissy prevents him from shooting Reggie, but she's hurt in the process. While Chrissy and her son, Ben, stay in Reggie's home to recuperate, Chrissy's connection with Reggie deepens, and they embark on a romantic relationship.
