Fallon Hughes is like any young attorney suffering through her
first year in a white-shoe Washington, D.C. firm: overworked,
exhausted, and lacking a social life.
She's also the daughter of the President-Elect of the United
States.
Tom Bishop is the Secret Service agent assigned to protect her.
After losing his wife on 9/11, he is not prepared to find himself
attracted to the sexy, smart protectee. The ethics questions alone
are explosive and despite the red-hot tension between them, he will
not risk his career or Fallon's reputation on a tryst that he is
sure they will both regret.
When Fallon receives a phone call from a frantic young man who
tells her he has information regarding a grave national security
threat she agrees to meet him, but he never arrives. The next
morning, she hears on the news that he jumped off the roof of a
building and killed himself.
Fallon suspects Antoine Campbell did not commit suicide and
launches an investigation. Despite a growing sense of paranoia,
Fallon is determined to prove Campbell was murdered. At first, Tom
tries to dissuade Fallon from becoming involved, but as it becomes
obvious this is a murder case, Tom and Fallon must expose the
conspiracy in her father's administration before Fallon meets the
same fate. And with the tension already sky-high between them,
working this close together is surely going to get one of them to
cross the line from a strictly professional relationship to
intimately personal.
Set against the backdrop of Washington, DC, At Any Cost sets up
a smoldering romance as it takes readers into the super-secret
world of the Secret Service, the NSA, and ultimately the most
private reaches of the White House.
