Mary Magruder Katz is about to find herself in the eye of storm.
Miami in June: it’s
raining, it’s pouring, but the life of criminal defense attorney
Mary Magruder Katz is anything but boring—especially when
she gets caught up in a whirlwind of three different cases.
Judge Liz Maxwell’s job, sanity, and reputation are at stake,
and she needs Mary to ferret out wrongdoing in Miami’s courts.
Solving this case won’t just mean going out on a limb; it will
mean risking life and limb.
Luis Corona, a family friend of Mary’s boyfriend,
Carlos, needs help with a legal matter that, to Mary’s horror,
turns out to be a terrorism charge. And this case will leave
some catastrophic damage—and unwelcome notoriety—in its wake.
Just when Mary thought things couldn’t get worse, Carlos
gets in his own nasty legal quandary—one that could cost him
everything.
Three cases. One Mary. One torrential downpour of turmoil.
Can she weather the storm? Ride out the cold front that settles
over her once-hot romance? Salvage what remains of her—and her
clients’—reputations?
For Mary Magruder Katz, this month’s forecast calls for trouble.

For half Jewish, half Southern Baptist Miami criminal defense
attorney Mary Magruder Katz, life starts
to spin completely
out of control when a minor fender bender
turns out to be an unlikely shot
from Cupid’s bow.
Carlos Martin, the other car’s driver, isn’t just a distracted
driver; he’s distracting. Carlos is charming, handsome,
and mysterious. Hardly before she knows what hit her, Mary
breaks off her engagement, jumps into a sizzling romance with
Carlos, gets fired from her former fiancé’s highbrow law firm,
starts her own practice, and lands her first client, Lillian
Yarmouth.
But Lillian isn’t just any client; she’s the prime suspect in
what’s become the Miami society murder of the year.
While investigating Lillian’s alleged crime of passion, Mary
finds that this case, like all matters of the heart, is anything
but black and white. And Mary has clearly stumbled onto
something that has someone seeing red.
February may be the shortest month of the year, but Mary’s got
some long days (and nights) ahead. This month could be a real
killer.
