Never get personally involved in a story. For star reporter Tory Patton, that was the cardinal rule of TV news. But when a fellow journalist and Athena Academy graduate was taken hostage in a war zone and a rival network broke the story Tory took it very personally, giving up the safety of her anchor desk to investigate in the field. The assignment was risky from the start, including a shocking complication: Tory’s unexpected pregnancy. With her stubborn, covert-agent lover begging her to go home and her questions stirring up a hornet’s nest, Tory suddenly faced reporting a story that could make her career but cost her everything she loved.
