If there's anything zoologist Josslyn Benoit abhors more than guns, its poachers. When an African "fact-finding" mission with a wildlife conservationist group results in one of their members being shot, Josslyn and the team must escape for their lives through the jungle. In order to obtain sanctuary from the local government, Josslyn calls in a favor from her older half-sister, the First Lady of the United States.
After suffering an injury in the line of duty, Adam Lockett, commander of the Secret Service's elite team of snipers, is forced to work on a boring protective detail. Making matters worse, he's assigned to guard the First Lady's wild-child younger sister, a woman hell-bent on ditching her detail every opportunity she gets. Still, Adam is determined to bide his time until he is cleared by the doctors to return to the job he's best at, even if the tree-hugging pacifist with the smoky eyes makes his job difficult.Can these two opposites find happiness? Or is it just a shot in the dark?
