Legal Jargon is a story about an aspiring lawyer who reunites with her childhood crush in small-town Vermont in this witty and heartfelt childhood friends-to-lovers romance that will appeal to fans of Suits and Legally Blonde.

Clara Sinclair has her life organized down to the last billable hour—graduate Harvard Law, pay her dues as an intern at a cutthroat firm, and avoid every distraction—until one mistake (that wasn’t hers) derails everything.

Her solution? Hide out in Stowe for the holidays, finish a corporate deal in peace, and steer clear of anything—or anyone—that might complicate her perfectly planned comeback.

Enter Liam Hearst. Her childhood best friend. Her almost-love. The guy who ghosted her three years ago and—because fate has a wicked sense of humor—is now the client she’s supposed to impress if she wants her career back on track.

He’s still infuriating. Still gorgeous. And still capable of making her forget every rule she’s ever lived by. As snow piles high and deadlines close in, late nights of spreadsheets and easy banter start to feel dangerously like old times. And maybe…something more. But when Liam’s past collides with her future—complete with blackmail, family scandals, and a deal that could blow up in their faces—Clara starts to wonder if she finally stops playing it safe… could this be the moment everything she’s ever wanted decides to show up at once?
