It's the holiday season in Chicago, and with her new gig as
a criminal lawyer and a burgeoning relationship with her
boyfriend, Theo, Izzy McNeil is determined to make this
Christmas a sparkling one. So when Theo mentions that his
lease is up on his apartment and he needs to find somewhere
to love for a few months, Izzy doesn't hesitate to tell him
to move into her condo until he buys a place.
WHen Izzy's home has a break in right after Theomoves in,
she ignores the coincidence. And when Theo is arrested on
charges of fraudd, she wants to believe he's innocent. But
when a neighbor is found dead, she can't ignore that
something is very very wrong.
Izzy can't forget how Theo was inexplicably turned down for
a mortgage on a town house. How can a successful business
owner be rejected for a mortgage? Moreover, how does she
explain Theo's recent moody silences? Or how a stranger
warned her that Theo needs to "give us what he owes..."?
Thrust into Theo's case, Izzy must walk the line between
attorney and lover and prove to a jury that Theo is
innocent. But only Izzy can decide whether trusting Theo
will keep her safe...or throw her into unimaginable danger.
