Name: Case Dismissed
Author: Linda Shaw

NATHAN CYPRESS MADE HEADLINES He had movie star looks, he'd earned a ruthless reputation running Washington, D.C.'s, largest newspaper, and his brief marriage to the paper's glamorous owner-followed by her tragic death was still scandalous. Especially since her first husband was suing for control of the paper Nathan had inherited. Attorney Kathleen Case would be jailed for contempt before she would compromise a client. And that was exactly where Nathan found her when he approached her with his I'll-get-you-out-if-you-get-your-father-off-my-back proposal. Nathan's nearness sparked feelings Kathleen could not deny--or accept. A woman of principle, she couldn't get involved with her "stepfather." But would the secret truth about Nathan's marriage provide new grounds for love? (less)
