No one ever said Gayle Lindley's first job would be a killer. Fresh out of college, Gayle's career path should follow the yellow brick road straight to the top. Thanks to a menial errand gone wrong, a wayward tongue, and a randy supervisor who won't take 'no' for an answer, Gayle's stuck in corporate hell. Discovering a company secret only turns up the heat. The one part of her life not going down in flames is her friendship with the gorgeous, but intensely private, Jon Cripps. Jon would make the perfect consolation prize for Gayle's pity party if dating a co-worker wasn't career suicide. Then again, with all Gayle has been through, maybe falling in love is the lucky break she needs. Hitting the cool sheets with Jon soothes her mind and body, but it also enrages whoever's behind the smokescreen she's uncovered at work. Someone is willing to kill to protect their secrets, and Gayle and Jon are the targets. With both her heart and livelihood at stake, Gayle's early career-limiting moves could turn into life-terminating ones.
