KONTRAKTEN MELLEM OS – THE CONTRACT BETWEEN US
By Thea Rytter
IN THE FIRST stand-alone novel in the series, The Shadows Between Us, readers first meet Aja—Sofie’s best friend and the kind of woman everyone wishes they had in their corner: sharp-witted, fiercely loyal, and profoundly skeptical of personal growth. With her brutal honesty and perfectly timed humor, she keeps those around her firmly grounded in reality. By day, Aja is a formidable lawyer, navigating the demands of her professional life with the same incisive intelligence she brings to everything else.
THEN THERE’S LUKAS. Her colleague. Her equal. And Aja’s greatest complication.
AJA AND LUKAS work together as lawyers, and they are all too aware that there are lines you don’t cross. But on a conference trip to Italy, their impulses are put to the test, and even though they try to ignore it, the tension between them is palpable.
WHEN AJA TRAVELS to Rørvig a year later to help out at her friend Sofie’s wedding, she is confronted with her unresolved desire. In the small coastal town, the waves crash harder than Aja had anticipated, and when Lukas is suddenly too close again, the question is no longer whether she can resist him, but whether she even wants to.
