Shannon Tanner has it all a perfect family, a perfect job, and a perfect boyfriend. Or so she thinks. What Shannon doesn't know is that her boyfriend, Mark, is stealing money from her father and making millions doing it. When Shannon learns Mark's secret, he turns on her, and Shannon's life abruptly goes from perfect to perilous.

In an effort to protect Shannon, the FBI assigns their only female agent to go undercover as her personal bodyguard. But when the agent is injured the day before the assignment, they turn to the next best thing: their top agent, Rick Holden in a dress.

Life seems safe again for Shannon with Rick by her side and Mark apparently gone for good. Then Shannon gets word that her best friend has been kidnapped, and it becomes clear that Mark isn't going to stop any time soon. Shannon realizes the only way to save herself and her friend and stop Mark once and for all is by sending Rick, her only source of protection, away. Can Rick save Shannon before it's too late?

Fun, fun, fun!!

Cheri, UT - October 20, 2009

I love a book I can read in 3 hours. Tristi's style is so fun. And her description of life in SLC so vivid, I could be Shannon--except for the fact she's single, has her own company, served a mission and lives in SLC, of course. Oh, and she's not alive. :)

The book starts right in the middle of the action. There's no need for back story initially; you're caught up in conflict. And the action carries you through to the very end. Sweet, ending, too.

I love the fact Tristi plugged author Annette Lyon in her book. If she plugged me like that, I'd probably buy her a huge box of chocolates.

Only one complaint--I acknowledge I'm a fast reader and I may have missed it, but what happened to Ol' Jungle Jim? I think I remember him being on the witness list for the trial, but I don't recall mention of him being caught. It's kind of scary to think he might still be out there. Maybe I'll pick up that detail in a re-read.
