Book Review: Home Court Advantage By N.M. Silber

Synopsis:

Once upon a time, two lawyers fell in love across a courtroom …
Gabrielle and Braden have fallen in love and face a bright future together if they can just survive all of the crazy people they encounter, like anonymous napkin droppers, UFO enthusiasts, crooked businessmen, nude drunk drivers, and a woman who tries to break into jail. When the gavel falls will the verdict be happily ever after?
Come join the fun as the sexiest couple in the Philadelphia Criminal Court System shares more witty banter and red hot lovin’ with a dash of mystery thrown in. The story that began with The Law of Attraction concludes with lots of love and laughter in The Home Court Advantage.

Review:

I launched into reading this book right after reading the first book, The Law of Attraction. Even though I wasn't thrilled with the ending of the first book, I really wanted to know who was behind the creepy messages and who was stalking Gabrielle. So I jumped right into the book and was happy for the most part.

I felt the overall feel of the story was well written, much like the first book. It had great descriptions and amazing chemistry between Gabrielle and Braden both as a couple and their sexual chemistry. It had a lot of great moments including game night, but there I feel that there was a lot more that could have been done with the story and fell short of my expectations.

There were major areas that I felt could have been better and could have had a bigger impact on the story. The first was Gabrielle going to talk to a prisoner. I thought this could have had a bigger impact if it was stretched out longer and showed the emotion from both Gabrielle and Braden. The second was the big reveal of the who stalked Gabrielle. I won't give it away, but it was a big let down to me.
