As a prominent figure in Senator Calvin Marcus's Washington D.C. office, Karalee Toscano wears the weight of the political world on her shoulders. Fresh out of law school, she was lucky to capture the Senator's attention and begin what she thought would be an exciting new career. That is, until she discovered the salacious scandals Senator Marcus is wrapped up in. Even worse - he expects Karalee to aid in his criminal activity, threatening to end her chances of furthering her career otherwise. 
Despite Karalee reluctantly complying with the Senator's requests, both her life and career are quickly starting to unravel, and she soon finds out that Senator Marcus has some very determined enemies who've mistaken her for being a willing participant in his web of deceit. 
Brant Hawkins is a career criminal looking for a way out of his seemingly inescapable past. He's just been released from prison and wants nothing more to do with running from danger. But when Brant ends up saving Karalee's life, he finds himself transplanted right back into the world of crime, unable to shake off the temptation to protect her. 
Feverishly drawn to one another, Brant and Karalee come to an agreement: he'll play bodyguard for her if she'll play attorney for him.
