A journalist at heart, she loves being in the middle of a juicy scoop and has her sights set on future press secretary for the White House. When a Supreme Court chief justice is accidentally killed in a road-rage accident and a high-profile conspiracy blogger claims it was premeditated murder, Hope has to shut down the paranoid blogger—which should be a slam dunk until she discovers that he is not as crazy as she thought and she has more in common with the secretive, hard-hitting investigator than she’d like to admit.

As a former ATF agent who blew the whistle on his superiors, he is no stranger to government cover-ups and scandals. An anonymous tip on the chief justice’s death sends him searching for answers. What he finds is a sexy, young idealist about to blow his private behind-the-scenes world to pieces.

But when the killer makes an attempt on Hope’s life, will Brice be able to keep her safe?
