J.R. Reardon's Confidential Communications is a legal thriller that fits all too well in today's corrupt world of financial scams. Reardon must have been looking into her crystal ball as she penned this exciting story.
When Rebecca Lawson, a young, small town, Vermont lawyer takes on Allan Richards, the owner of Financial Investments, as a client, she gets way more than she bargains for. Hired to investigate an employee's potential wrongdoings, Lawson finds herself waist deep in trouble as More...

"Confidential Communications" is J. R. Reardon's first book, but you can hardly tell after the first chapter.
This book will grab your attention if you are at all interested in law, mystery, betrayal, and action. Just when you thought you had the story figured out, another twist was added to make you rethink all the character roles. I thoroughly enjoyed this book.The characters are greatly played out and the hint of comedy and sarcasm was just right.

Rebecca Lawson is a new lawyer who moved to a small Vermont town to start her practice. The story begins when she meets Charlie and starts to date him.

This was funny, and there are many times when Rebecca thinks something that made me laugh, which was good because I love humor and I found it helped to ease some of the tension. This book is filled with some tense moments, so a bala

It turns the tables on the legal system… and entertains us every step of the way!
We’ve all heard the endless string of lawyer jokes that are so popular – we may have even told a few ourselves.
