No matter how many times he patches the holes in the wall,
CIA Deputy Director Michael Stone can’t forget the night a
terrorist took him hostage in his own home. Or the
mistakes that transformed him into an overwhelming force
to keep his country safe. And now that his niece, the
daughter of the Republican candidate for President, has
been kidnapped just days from the election, Michael vows
to do whatever it takes to get her back.
Dr. Brigit Kent, a consultant for the Department of
Homeland Security, knows this particular kidnapper well.
Exposing him, however, will reveal her sister’s secret
ties to a terrorist group. The only way to keep her sister
safe is to blackmail the sexy, rock-solid deputy director.
A move that puts her directly in his line of fire.
Brigit is undeniably beautiful, brilliant, cunning. But is
she friend or foe? The answer to that question could break
Michael’s personal code of honor—and his heart.
