So glad to finally get into The Legal Briefs series. I've been meaning to read this for a long time but didn't have a chance. Overruled is about Stanton Shaw and Sofia Santos, both are bright lawyers working in a law firm and they are friends with benefits. 
 One day, Stanton received a wedding invitation from his High School lover and mother of his child, Jenny Monroe. Jenny got pregnant when he's about to leave Sunshine, Mississippi to pursue Law studies. They became good parents to Presley, their daughter. Jenny encourage him to pursue his dreams to become a lawyer instead of being stuck in a small town and they have an agreement to have an open relationship. He decided to go home and asked Sofia to accompany him in the hopes Jenny will change her mind. 
 Sofia is a hardworking woman who doesn't have time to have relationships. She's okay with the arrangement she has with Stanton and when he needs help, she doesn't hesitate to help him. Her feelings for him developed as she gets to spend more time with him. They have an intense sexual tension and chemistry but is he capable of loving her just like Jenny? Is he willing to go beyond their arrangement? 
 I like Overruled because of the angst and humor. There are times it made me laugh and I really enjoy the little drama. However, Stanton was a let down. He may be charming, sexy and intelligent in the work field, but he's an idiot for handling his relationships. He left the ladies hanging and I really feel bad for both of them. Jenny waited so long for him but he didn't come back for her, I understand why she moved on from him and I'm glad she ended up with a guy who will cherish her. As for Sofia, she deserves to be treated better than this. It's obvious she loved him and I'm frustrated Stanton didn't see that earlier. He. Is. So. Damn. Blind. 
 It's still a good start despite of my issues with the male lead. I'm going to continue the series and hopefully it gets better. P.S. It's nice to see Drew Evans here ;) I miss that swoon worthy man. ;)))
