What Kathleen Turner doesn't know just may kill her. Her boyfriend, Navy SEAL turned high-powered attorney Blane Kirk, is keeping secrets from her - the deadly kind - and it may end their relationship before it's even begun. Someone in the shadows is stalking and terrorizing Kathleen, and Blane must lose a trial with far-reaching ramifications if he wants to keep her alive. Blane turns to assassin-for-hire Kade Dennon to keep Kathleen safe, a strategy that may backfire in more ways than one. Though Kade swears he hates her, he's helpless to guard against things he's never felt before and when they're together, Kathleen sees something forbidden in his eyes. Kathleen must find the truth behind the lies before her time, and luck, runs out, or she may pay the ultimate price for falling in love with Blane Kirk.
