Macey McKenna has a special gift, a gift only the women in her long ancestry have ever possessed. Macey herself had always viewed her strength as a curse, especially when it came to trying to capture the attention of her long-time crush. When destiny brought her to a murder scene one night she allowed her strength to be used to save a helpless man. Little did Macey know that single event would catapult her into the middle of the city's biggest crime ring of all time. She would be given the chance to do what she always dreamed of: save thousands of lives while also capturing the heart of the man she loved-the only problem now is which one?

Alex Waldman has spent his entire life trying to impress his Father-as an all-star college quarterback and now as JW Holding's young President. It is expected that Alex take over the multi-million-dollar firm from his retiring Father with 6 months, but a deal of acquiring Boston re-development company Apollo turns many sour against him as a leader. His Brother, His Father's trusted partner, and the people of Boston all seem to turn against him at once. Alex never realized that single deal would rip open Boston's biggest murder investigation of all time and yet at the same time put the lives of everyone he ever cared about at risk... again. After receiving numerous phone threats and finding himself being attacked in a parking garage, Alex realizes no one is on his side: until Macey McKenna stepped in.All Rights Reserved
