Cleo Garcia had the world at her feet: a lucrative position with the top media company in the country, a healthy bank balance, and the support of her beloved family. Her life was perfect. She was set for greatness. . . until she approved an article on the No1 singer in the country doing a stint in rehab when he was fighting for his life in an Intensive Care Unit.

That was the very first kink in a downward spiral that saw Cleo slip from grace. Her desk was moved to the basement, her six-figure income stripped away, and a tragic accident no one saw coming impacted her in ways you could never envision.

So imagine her surprise when four years after the mishap that downgraded her from Chief Executive of Entertainment to Flamboyant Obituary Writer she was personally selected by billionaire Jack Carson to investigate what was being touted as the story of the century.

With a stream of luxury perks thrown into the deal, and the guarantee of a stable income for years to come, the dreams that slipped from Cleo’s grasp four years ago were returning stronger than ever. It was the ideal situation, a perfect way to show her top-ranked journalism studies were being wasted in the basement. She was determined. Nothing was going to stand in her way. . . until she discovered who she was set to investigate.

Can Cleo push aside the demons of her past to bring the story of the century to fruition? Or is she being lured into a world determined to swallow her whole?

From the author who brought you the Perception and Enigma series comes the next tantalising instalment. This is the story you’ve been waiting for. The one I deemed too risqué to write. Sit back and enjoy the story about two people in vastly contradicting roles come together in a fire-sparking showdown. Just be warned: it is the shy ones you need to watch the closest.
