Wearing a white blazer over a magenta dress, paired with pink heels and a navy bag, isn’t just a fashion choice—it’s a power move. It’s Danica Pierce energy in head-to-toe color coordination, and it just might be the ticket to making you feel like the main character in your own steamy, career-driven, emotionally-complicated love story.
Danica, the queen of closing arguments and locked emotions, knows that looking polished is half the battle—especially when your secret fling is also your courtroom rival. That crisp white blazer? Your armor. The magenta dress? Your fire. Pink heels? Pure confidence. And the navy bag? A reminder that beneath all that boldness is someone steady, composed, and carrying more than she lets on.
Now picture this: you’re mid-argument, adrenaline running high, your words sharp as ever—and then you grab the magenta and navy tie of that fellow lawyer. The one who sees through your no-nonsense exterior. The one who can match your wit word for word and is just as frustrating as he is irresistible. In that moment, you’re not just fighting to win a case—you’re fighting not to let your heart get involved. But we all know how that turns out.
This look? It’s more than main character—it’s romance novel protagonist. It says you're ambitious, brilliant, emotionally guarded—and maybe just brave enough to risk it all. So slip on that blazer, step into your pink heels, and tighten that tie. You're not just dressed to impress. You're dressed to take the lead—in court, in life, and in love. And no objections here: you own it.

About Overruled by Lana Ferguson:
Two divorce lawyers determined to share only beds but not hearts discover that love is something that can’t be overruled in this steamy contemporary romance by Lana Ferguson, USA Today bestselling author of The Game Changer.
Danica Pierce has one great love in her life: work. As one of the top divorce lawyers in Austin, Danica lets her caseload keep her warm at night and has no problem being married to her job, not when love only ends in hurt. When the biggest case of her career gives her a shot at making partner, it seems like nothing could possibly stand in her way…except for her infuriating secret: she’s sleeping with the enemy.
Ezra Hart is known for charming his way in and out of a courtroom. In the matter of winning Danica Pierce’s heart, however, he’s been far less successful. With her verdict to keep things purely physical with no chance of appeal, Ezra struggles to show Danica he’s more than the insufferable playboy she’s pegged him to be—especially since they find themselves on opposing sides of Danica’s most important case to date.
While Dani and Ezra battle it out in the courtroom, the real trial is the one happening between them. When Dani realizes that everything she knows of Ezra might be hearsay—and that she’s not the only one with emotional baggage—she must choose between her fear of trusting again and the feelings blossoming between her and the man she thought was her worst enemy.
