Chloe Mills is intelligent, hardworking, moments away from her MBA and starting a successful career. The only thing standing in her way is her boss, Bennett Ryan. He's exacting, blunt, inconsiderate and... completely gorgeous - a beautiful bastard. She's determined to ignore him, do the best job she can, and move on to her bright future. Bennett has been trying to ignore his gorgeous, infuriating assistant for months. He's never been one for a workplace dalliance, especially not with one of his employees. But Chloe is so tempting he's willing to bend the rules - or smash them, if it means he can have her… all over the office. What starts as just a hot hate hook-up becomes something much deeper, as both Chloe and Bennett must confront exactly what they're willing to lose to find love with each other.

Defeated by Justice contains all the elements that an avid reader expects from an enjoyable and memorable book. Apart from the interesting and unique backdrop, the South African Police Force in 80's and 90's South Africa, the perspective of a female at this historic time in a male-dominated environment adds to the continuously building suspense and story evolvement. The writing is sharp and witty throughout and the drama of the main character development is believable, frustrating and sad at the same time. Carefully researched and craftily written, it will exhaust, yet revitalize any reader, as any successful creative roller-coaster should do! Compelling must-read, definite repeat-read!
