Deadly Proof by Rachel Dylan

About the Book
In the biggest case of her career, attorney Kate Sullivan is tapped as lead counsel to take on Mason Pharmaceutical because of a corporate cover-up related to its newest drug. After a whistleblower dies, Kate knows the stakes are much higher than her other lawsuits.
Former Army Ranger turned private investigator Landon James is still haunted by mistakes made while serving overseas. Trying to forget the past, he is hired by Kate to look into the whistleblower's allegation and soon suspects that the company may be engaging in a dangerous game for profit. He also soon finds himself falling for this passionate and earnest young lawyer.

Determined not to make the same mistakes, he's intent on keeping Kate safe, but as the case deepens, it appears someone is willing to risk everything--even murder--to keep the case from going to trial.

My Thoughts
I tried so hard to love this book and I made it about 80 pages before I finally had to accept that this was not the book for me. I had a hard time connecting to either of the main characters and even after 6 chapters there seemed to be zero romantic connection between them. The author had a good writing style but all of the legal aspects were slowing the story for me and I just couldn’t stay hooked. Honestly for the right reader I can see this being a favorite book and I know several people who have loved it, but for me it just wasn’t my cup of tea!
