The Exception

The Exception Bruce built his empire with iron discipline. As the most feared attorney in the United States, he wins cases with cold precision, keeps emotions locked behind bulletproof walls, and never—ever—mixes business with desire. Success is his only addiction. Control is his religion. Until she walks into his office. Fernanda is brilliant, confident, and stunning in a way Bruce can't ignore. She's everything he never allowed himself to want. The moment she becomes part of his team, the rules that shaped his entire life start to crumble. She admires him. She fears him. And no matter how hard she fights it, she wants him. But Fernanda knows Bruce belongs to a world of power, prestige, and women bred for high society—not to the employee who should keep her distance. Yet attraction doesn't care about logic. Between lingering glances, forbidden tension, and a chemistry that threatens to burn everything around them, the line between right and wrong begins to disappear. He may dominate the courtroom, but she's the one woman capable of breaking through his armor—and becoming the exception to every rule he's ever lived by.
