The Briefcase and the BibleBook DescriptionHe built his life on winning. She taught him what's worth fighting for. Marcus Webb has it all-a corner office on the 42nd floor, a partnership at Manhattan's most prestigious law firm, and a reputation for never losing. But success tastes hollow when measured only in billable hours and corporate victories. Grace Morrison has nothing but faith and determination when she walks into his office on a rain-soaked evening.
Her community center-a lifeline for three hundred families-is being crushed by a ruthless development corporation, and she's desperate enough to beg for help from a lawyer who charges more per hour than her monthly budget. Marcus should turn her away. The case is impossible, the odds are terrible, and Grace's passionate idealism threatens everything about his carefully controlled world. Instead, he says yes.
What begins as professional obligation transforms into something far more dangerous. As Marcus fights the biggest battle of his career, he discovers that Grace isn't just challenging the eviction-she's challenging him to remember who he wanted to be before ambition replaced purpose. But winning in court might mean losing his career. And falling for his client could cost them both everything. In a world where power and profit reign supreme, two people from opposite sides of Manhattan must decide what they're willing to risk for justice, for community, and for a love neither of them saw coming.
A contemporary romance about second chances, finding purpose, and discovering that the most important victories can't be measured in dollars. Perfect for fans of: Nicholas Sparks, Danielle Steel, and readers who love stories where faith meets ambition, and true love changes everything.
