Two women meet in an alley and fulfill their mutual desire with a night of passion, neither expecting more than the few lusty hours they shared. Weeks later Morgan Bradley and Parker Casey meet again, but this time one is a law professor and the other her student. A series of events lands them in the middle of a high-profile murder trial, but the twists and turns of the case are no match for the spiral of increasing attraction as they work side by side in the defense of justice. It Should Be a Crime is a story of forbidden romance coupled with high-stakes courtroom drama.
Mackenzie Lewis’ friends think she is destined to grow old alone. A sporty blonde restaurateur, Mac is quite a catch, but the only women she meets are the ones in the romance novels she devours or while tagging along on dates with her best friend Jordan.
Dr. Jordan Wagner, successful, gorgeous plastic surgeon, has encountered lots of women and she has enjoyed every one. She is not interested in growing old with any of them, though. At the first sign of commitment, she is on to the next.
Mackenzie and Jordan are fast friends and their only source of disagreement centers around whether true love really exists. Mackenzie, relying on stories of her parents’ flawless romance and the predictable pairings of the leading ladies in her romance novels, believes true love begins with love at first sight.
On a dare from their pals, Mac and Jordan decide to look for matches on the internet. As they wind their way through the Web, seemingly looking for completely different things, both women discover true love doesn’t conform to either of their expectations. On their respective trips through cyberspace they learn valuable lessons about themselves and each other. Ultimately, Mac and Jordan discover true lesbian love is closer than a click away.
