Client Privilege

When Protection Becomes Forbidden Passion

De: C.G. Macington

Narrado por: Anthony Bologna

When Alex flees his abusive ex, he finds protection in the arms of older, distinguished lawyer Damian Richards. As professional boundaries blur, their forbidden attraction grows amidst courtroom battles and healing wounds. Can Alex trust another powerful man, or will the scars from his past prevent him from embracing a future with Damian?

Marcus Delaney—wealthy, connected, and dangerously obsessed—will stop at nothing to reclaim what he considers his property. With unlimited resources and powerful allies, this ruthless billionaire manipulates the justice system to maintain his iron grip on Alex's life.

As Alex fights for his freedom, he finds himself increasingly drawn to the stoic lawyer who's risking his career to protect him. Damian's gentle strength is nothing like Marcus's controlling dominance, but ethical boundaries exist for a reason, and crossing them could jeopardize everything they're fighting for.

Their slow-burn romance unfolds against a backdrop of legal battles and psychological healing, each step forward haunted by Marcus's looming threat. As Alex rebuilds his shattered confidence, he discovers that reclaiming his power means opening his heart to vulnerability once more.

In this high-stakes courtroom drama, sometimes the most dangerous case is the one that steals your heart.

Good Story

This story was emotional at times but was also a good read. I got pulled into it early on and enjoyed it all. I especially enjoyed the narration by Anthony Bologna.

I received an ARC and this is my unbiased opinion

good story

This is a domestic violence story that pulls you right in. Marcus, a well known lawyer with power and connections, abused Alex, a struggling artist. After finally escaping, Alex found himself living in his car when he reached out for help.
Damian, another powerful lawyer, was asked to take Alex’s case pro bono. Though his firm doesn’t handle these kinds of cases, he agreed to meet Alex and hear his story and from there the courtroom battle begins.
This book delivered a good courtroom drama. Damian fought hard for Alex, and I was fully invested in their journey. I listened to the audiobook, narrated by Anthony Bologna, and he did a fantastic job bringing the story to life.

Wonderful story.

I am really happy with how this book turned from heartache to joy. Alex survived many years of trauma and abuse with no where to get help. He was pretty much held captive by fear of physical harm. He finally ended up in the hospital and decided to run away and hide. He actually had to sneak out of the hospital because his abusive partner was there to take him back home. He is a gifted artist and would sketch to keep himself busy but he was manipulated into not working on his projects because his partner was jealous of the attention he received. He ended up finding some good people who helped him stay safe and they knew a man named Damon who was a lawyer and got him to work pro bono to help Alex with his situation. In the end they did get Alex’s life back and he got compensated for his loss of time and all of the abuse he had lived through. Alex and Damon waited until everything finished and ended up together. I definitely recommend this book to everyone who loves mm love stories that rip at your heart and glues it back together at the end.
