What she really needs is something real. What she really needs...is me."

When my college crush, Talbot Richardson, was elected to the United States Senate, I bragged a little too loudly that I knew him. Oops. Did I really know the sexiest, slickest guy on campus? Not a chance in hell. Unless knowing someone is following them around campus to see which dorm they live in, and which class they have at 8 a.m. on Wednesdays. Thanks to my big mouth, the paper I work for now expects me to do a story on him. Surely he’ll meet with me since we went to college together? Right? Logical assumption, except that he doesn’t know me from a hole in the wall.

I’d never forget the day Melody Dumas approached me in that bagel shop. I sure as hell didn’t plan to offer her assistance. But when she flashed those deep brown eyes, she could get any man to do her bidding. The streets of New York were not an easy road - one must earn their way. But this beauty was different. She needed to be on a stage, not singing on a street corner. I had the power to help her make beautiful music. Question was...what was in it for me?

Ex-fighter pilot Logan Reid is exactly the kind of man I despise. He’s a cocky jet jock, a former Navy Blue Angel, and full of all the arrogance that comes with being the best of the best. I’m an ex-Zoomie, an Air Force tanker pilot. The rivalry between our sister services is nothing compared to that between fighter jocks and tanker pilots. We’re bitter rivals, and I’m low-man (woman) on the totem pole.

Dexter Truitt ruined my life. His impossibly improbable act set off a chain of events I couldn’t make up if I tried, each one stealing a little more from me. My relationship. My business.

And didn't know who in the hell I was.

Never mind that his red-and-yellow pill tempts me with the promise of turning off a Talent I’d give anything to erase.

The madman will pay for that, even if I have to hunt him down myself.
