The bank where she works is robbed and someone sets her up to take the fall and even knowing who that person is can't save her. The only place safe enough for Zuri is an old isolated cabin in the small town she grew up in that belongs to her old boyfriend, Colt Triplehorn.

Colt is surprised and angry to find Zuri on his property; she broke his heart when she hightailed it out of town right after graduation. It also upsets him to realize his feelings for her haven't changed, he still loves her but he does not trust her. Knowing Zuri, trouble is not too far behind.

Colt brings her to his home and offers her his protection despite the resistances he receives from his brothers. Zuri won't bring her trouble to Colt, the man trying to destroy her is too dangerous and fairly untouchable. As soon as she sees a chance she will make a run for it but in the meantime what can it hurt to revive old flames and satisfy her burning desire for Colt while she waits.

If Colt can keep Zuri safe until he figures out what is going on, maybe they will get a chance to let go of the past and have a future together. If you like your passion smoking hot combined with a poignant love story filled with unforgettable characters who you won't soon forget then LAYING DOWN THE LAW is the book for you. I couldn't put it down and I sympathized with Zuri who seemed like no matter how much she tried to do the right thing it all seemed to come out wrong. She is the type of heroine readers root for having a happy ending.
