The killer isn't finished, and sparks fly as Jessie and Jason race to stop a madman and figure out what they can do about the fire blazing between them. The deeper Jessie digs into the governor's past, the less she knows about him, and the less sure she is about her own feelings. Was her childhood a lie, and if so, how can she trust anyone or anything ever again? Is Jason someone she can count on to have her back, or is he just one more in a long line of betrayers. The past seems to have caught up to the present as the killer targets anyone who may know what happened nearly twenty years ago, and now he has Jessie in his sights. What is true? What is a lie? And can Jessie fight the passion threatening to change her life forever?
