Publisher's summary

The beautiful Bliss Fenton won't be winning any awards for Mother of the Year. Truth is, motherhood isn't nearly as important to Bliss as the cottage industry she's created: extorting wealthy men for the hefty child support she can collect. But Bliss' greed goes too far when she takes on Fletcher McClain. The handsome music industry mogul refuses to accept her conniving conduct lying down. He retains high-profile attorney Vernetta Henderson to sue Bliss for fraud. Enter Bliss' unscrupulous attorney, Girlie Cortez, who has a personal score to settle with Vernetta. As the two lawyers once again go head-to-head, their legal battle quickly escalates from merely contentious to downright deadly.

Terrific legal thriller!

Legal thrillers simply do not get better than Lawful Deception! I'm a fan of Pamela Sameuls Young and have listened to all but one of her audio books. Her characters are vivid and her plots are sophisticated. RC Bray is one of the top narrators. I VERY, VERY HIGHLY RECOMMEND this novel.

Legal Thriller With A Focus On Relationships...

This is a good legal thriller with well developed and believable characters, and a good storyline. This story is about deceit, greed and immorality. High-profile attorney Vernetta Henderson and unscrupulous attorney, Girlie Cortez go head to head producing great court room drama. Friendships moves from cordial to deadly.

Vernetta Henderson is a smart and confident female protagonist who is an attorney. I can hardly wait for the next one in this series. PSY is a skilled writer and a sophisticated story teller. She gives each character a distinct personality which adds a spicy flavor to the story. R.C. Bray brings the flavor of each personality into his performance.

I've enjoyed 7 of Pamela Samuels Young's novels and have enjoyed all except "Anybody's Daughter." It was too raw for me. But recommend this one.

Pamela S. Young never disappoints!

What made the experience of listening to Lawful Deception the most enjoyable?

As usual, the narration by RC Bray.

What was one of the most memorable moments of Lawful Deception?

Hard to pick one. This book was captivating from start to finish.

What about R.C. Bray’s performance did you like?

He does an awesome job of distinguishing each character. I never have to listen to a portion twice to try to figure out which character is speaking. RC Bray and Pamela S Young are the perfect duo.

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

I hate for her stories to end. It is so hard to find a great story without explicit sexual content and language. I love Pamela S Young's classy, entertaining writings. I have never been disappointed with a purchase from Pamela.

Very Entertaining

Any additional comments?

Even though I guessed the end before it happened, the writer gave presumptions that it was someone else. I enjoyed the entertaining of the book and listening all the way to the end on how the person who killed Bliss came about doing this.

Love Pamela's writing and her entertaining of keep the listener engaged. I also like that she kept relevant details of today's news within the listening.
