Synopsis

She was never scared of heights.

Avery Woodsen has spent years clawing her way up the political ladder. She's fought and sacrificed to get where she is; she's more than ready to see the fruits of her labor. Finally, it's her chance to get one step closer to her dream - one step closer to D.C., a shiny city just waiting for her. Her time at the California Attorney General's office has come to an end.

She's sacrificed everything for this. She would sacrifice anything to keep it.

But when the attorney general seems to be targeted by a gun-wielding coward, Avery finds herself in the crosshairs. There's no manifesto to give her answers, and no suspect to question. Her ladder has collapsed. Will the security team sent from Greystone Security be enough to keep her safe? Will the trained, handsome man forced to be her protective shadow be able to keep her away from danger? Or will her desire to move up in her career have too strong of a pull?

Or is what's tugging her not her career at all, but Reed Sterling himself?

Trust no one. Except him.
