Secrets from the Past A Presidency In Jeopardy A Deadly Affair High school basketball star Amanda Hutchins seemed to have the world at her feet. But she had a dirty secret. For two years, a psychotic sadist, Sheriff Larry Tyrell, had molested her. Then, one terrifying night, Tyrell murdered her father and a wounded Amanda found herself running for her life. 16 years later, Amanda has made herself strong. Living under a new identity, she's spent years planning her revenge. When she uncovers incriminating evidence against Senator Larry Tyrell-now a presidential candidate-and knows it's time to strike. Patriot Burke Cherlenko has little time to recover the dangerous files on Tyrell. But when he meets the auburn-haired beauty who possesses the stolen information, all he wants is her. But not even Burke's love can keep Amanda from avenging her father's death. The final bloody showdown sends shockwaves around the world and changes the face of US politics forever.
