Best Practice

Perry Clark is committed to legal work for people who need help, so losing both her nonprofit job and her home leaves her reluctant to accept a corporate alternative. Her sister Campbell offers a position she intends to treat as temporary. That plan becomes less straightforward when Grace Maldonado is assigned as her mentor. Perry has admired Grace since childhood; Grace remembers an unruly younger sister of her best friend and is surprised by the capable, attractive woman who now challenges her at work. Arguments and growing attraction make professional boundaries difficult to maintain. Neither can ignore Campbell's place between them or Perry's stated intention to leave as soon as she can.
