Review & Giveaway: DAMAGED by Pamela Callow

DAMAGED is the wickedly brilliant debut from author Pamela Callow and book 1 in the Kate Lang series from Mira.

Kate Lang is an up and coming attorney just trying to make a name for herself and set her career in the right path and lands a killer job. Well, almost. She isn't practicing the type of law she wants because those around her think she is sleeping her way to the top and her mentor continues to feed her a bunch is lies.
Her boss Randall has no respect for her and couldn't care less about the newest addition to the law firm. All this and I still think Kate has a good head on her shoulders and help that head up high and with class.

But when she gives advice she believed in to a grandmother who was her client about her granddaughter to only find that the grand-daughter ends up dead to guts her. Almost to the core and the guilt of what ifs is eating her up.

Down but not out Kate is a seriously touch cookie, she has sass and definitely shows that she has character with all that she has had to deal with so far!

That is until life starts to throw her more curve balls, her jerk of a boss has given her a case she had been dying to get. Too bad it's could cost her dearly, perhaps with her life.

Talk about being on the edge of your seat, this book was full of suspense and intrigue that never died. I was completely riveted to Kate's drama and felt compassion for her along the way, completely immersing myself in her life and all that was happening around her. Absolutely fantastic!!!!


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.

About Me


My Photo
Brande
I am a working mom with an addiction to coffee, chocolate, and books.. I read an average 3 to 4 books a week to escape reality. I have setup this site to organize my own thoughts and help others when choosing what to read. Since I can be a dimwit at times I decided to keep a record of the books I read. This record turned into reviews so I would remember if I liked the book I forgot I had read. I am not particularily funny and my grammer sucks so please don’t expect much. Basically I don’t know jack about many things, but I do know what I like in a novel and what makes me want to spend my money on an author.
