Due and Just is the first story in the Justified Series. Caleb is a corporate executive. Danielle is a marketing executive. Due to a possible merger between their companies, they must work together. Despite an instant attraction between the two, both must deal with issues with their past relationships.

Love can be painful and full of misery. Do you ever wish you could unlove someone? Their smile just twists you up inside and their touch sends you to heaven. Yet, they make your world hell on earth.

Caleb Duncan knew this feeling, in love with a gorgeous, selfish woman. How could he remove her from his heart and life?

Danielle Scott loved a man who she just could not resist and that love turned on her in the worst of ways.These two beautiful, giving people have fallen for the wrong mates. They are both from different worlds, caught up in a sweet manipulation and trapped by calculated seduction. Can they find a way to be together? Everyone gets what’s owed to them as love and revenge are never satisfied. In the end, you gotta have what’s Due and Just, but can real love be truly Justified?

This title is available from Amazon.
