Damaged--Book Review

How far are you willing to go to forget your past?

Haunted by the death of her sister, and wounded by her ex-fiance's accusations, Kate Lange throws herself into her new career at a high-powered law firm.
When the grandmother of a lonely private school student seeks her counsel, Kate thinks it's just another custody case. Until the teen is brutally murdered. And it isn't only Kate who wonders if her legal advice led to the girl's death.
How far are you willing to go to redeem yourself?
Put on notice by Randall Barrett, the firm's charismatic managing partner, Kate must fight for her career, for her reputation -- and for redemption.
Unwilling to live with the damage she has caused, Kate pursues the case on her own and unearths some chilling facts.

Facts that lead straight to the heart of a legal conspiracy. Facts that lead Kate directly into the surgically-skilled hands of the Body Butcher.(goodreads.com)

This was a good mystery ..it has romance , thriller and friendship

Kate will do anything to do her job. In fact she does such a good job, that some people want to kill her.

Kate also has some neighbors that help her crack the case because she feels guilt for past sins and she didn't follow through with a client. Kate Neighbors just want to get to know her, but while being a Nancy drew , and their comments, they help Kate look in a different direction that what she was thinging of.

Kate is attracted to both partners at her law firm for different reasons, but since she is on probation, she doesn't act on it, but you can feel the tension.

I did like the romance between Kate and her detective boyfriend--who are on the off status because she has issues that she needs to work on.

This was a fast read and kept me on toes because you realize that you can't trust anyone.
