Jessica Ford is a young lawyer trying to rise in a powerful Washington, D.C., law firm. Her life gets thrown for a loop when she gets into a car accident that kills the first lady. Jessica wakes in the hospital to find someone trying to kill her as well—tipping her off that the crash wasn’t just an accident and she never should have survived it. In steps Secret Service agent Mark Ryan, the head of the first lady’s security detail. As bodies start piling up around Jessica, she and Mark have no one to turn to except each other, and as the conspiracy begins to point to some very high places, the duo begin to realize the key to saving their lives is locked away in Jessica’s memories. Jessica and Mark make a superb team, and even if their romance feels tacked on and the big twist contrived, Robards’s fans will enjoy this fast-paced and action-packed romantic thriller.
