Conduct Unbecoming a Judge

Rich or poor, sick or healthy, everyone needs love.
For Esme Fernandes, life ended at thirty. First, she lost her ability to have children, and then she lost her husband. Certain she's fated to die young like the rest of her family, Esme married her career instead. And it paid off: now thirty-eight, she's a Federal judge, and determined to be worthy of her job.
Jack Bullard, twice People's Sexiest Man Alive, is at a crossroads. Two years after a bewildering and brutal divorce, he misses his kids and is unfulfilled by his Hollywood stardom. But he's made a career out of being irreplaceable, and too many people depend on him now.

When Jack and Esme collide-literally-sparks fly. But they also attract attention from the moment they meet, and not the good kind. Between scandalous pictures and Esme's growing political conflict with a senator, things take a dangerous turn.
Just as Jack can see the future forming, the increasing scrutiny awakens Esme's demons-and Jack has to decide whether fighting for her is selfish, or what they both need.
