Love in Reality: A Contemporary Romance by Magdalen Braden
Never has the Philadelphia legal community generated so much passion — it has to be the fictional world of former lawyer Magdalen Braden, who introduces us to The Blackjack Quartet with the story of a law student who discovers Love in Reality …
TV producer Rand Jennings needs to find a ditz for his reality show, The Fishbowl, but Lissa Pembroke hardly seems ditzy or scatterbrained. Still, something about the cool, competent bartender excites him. Rand coaches her on how to act the part … a session that ends with a heated kiss. Now he’s more determined than ever to cast her as a “Fish” for the show.
Law student Libby Pembroke agreed to bartend in her twin sister’s place, but no way is she going on a silly, fish-themed reality show as Lissa. Then her summer plans fall through. Libby realizes that the chance to be near the gorgeous producer has a certain appeal.
Their attraction may be real, but Rand and Libby are keeping a lot of secrets from each other. With a show that’s all about scheming and deceit as a backdrop, they manage to forge a genuine bond. Can it survive the lies they’ve told each other … and themselves?
