Description:
“R U in? Need $ now
Third year law student Lennon Gallagher’s
life turns from complicated to overwhelming when she receives a message meant
for someone else. The text offers an advance copy of a final exam—a guaranteed ‘A’—but
accepting it will violate the honors code she refuses to break. When Lennon
declines, the collaborators behind the cheating scheme demand her silence or
they will ensure she takes the fall if necessary.
Fighting for her future while balancing an
internship, exams, studying for the bar, a boyfriend who no longer seems to
understand her, and a mother who needs help rebuilding her life after prison,
Lennon tries to handle everything alone. But when she discovers the lead
plaintiff in her firm’s class action lawsuit might be the father she’s never
known, it’s the final straw. She needs help.
With the support of her friend and mentor,
attorney Miranda Quinn, Lennon must navigate betrayal, legal intrigue, and
personal discovery. As one relationship unravels, another blossoms in this
gripping story of resilience, secrets, and second chances.
A captivating read full of unexpected twists
and emotional depth.”

Olmsted, a distant cousin of her husband's, and his wife Mary. Miranda Fights
is the third book in the Miranda Quinn Legal Twist series. Olmsted enjoys
writing about quirky, wonderful women in search of a second chance at a happy
ever after. When not writing, she loves being on the water, especially in a
kayak. She is well known for her blonde brownies, and coffee is her love

Appraisal:
I loved this book. The main character, Lennon, is someone I
immediately liked and was pulling for her to do well. She’d beat the odds
reaching the point she was at when the book started and was on the verge of
graduating from law school with a bright future. However, these last few months
throw more than a few curves at her. How or if she’d work through it while
dealing with all her normal life struggles kept me engrossed from the first
word to the last. I wish every book I read captured me the way this one did.
