And Elizabeth is the youngest executive in the company she now leads. Surrounded by rumors and disloyalty, she knows that there are many people who would give anything to take down the company--and her with it.

As scandal surrounds the one man she's ever loved, Elizabeth discovers how the next move she makes could have deadly and final consequences."--Publisher's description.
