Keri is thrilled to be engaged to Kevin. He is handsome, successful, and compassionate-all the things she hoped for in a husband. But then, his car is forced off the road while driving home from work one night, and the crash proves fatal. Following her loss, she vows to never fall in love again. The pain of losing Kevin is too much, and Keri doesn't know if she could go through it twice.
When Shay Robbins enters her life, he is nothing like Kevin; he makes Keri feel somewhat ill at ease. Even so, to escape the drudgery of her Clayborne office job, Keri accepts the offer of a thousand-dollar bonus to assist Shay in an investigation-one that could possibly get them both into a lot of trouble.
Soon, circumstances escalate. What begins as a simple investigation reveals some dark secrets within a local law firm. Is it possible that someone close to Shay is guilty of embezzlement? As Keri grows closer to Shay, she encounters some strange characters that add more suspicion to her whirling mind. Who knew her office job could be so dangerous?
