Within seventy-two hours of landing in Chile, American geologist Nick Johnson survives an assassination attempt. The target of the violence is Isabela Luksaval, the beautiful CEO and heir-apparent to Luksaval Enterprises—and Nick’s new boss. Nick has come to Chile at the urging of his college roommate, who knows that Nick needs work—and to move past the death of his fiancé two years earlier. After Nick and Isabela narrowly escape their own deaths, she invites him to recuperate at her family’s well-protected estate in Santiago. In the safety of the fortress, Nick and Isabela’s relationship takes a quick turn from strict professionalism. But while Nick’s emotional ghosts of the past fade away in the company of Isabela, her troubles mount and leave her with few allies. Nick and Isabela soon understand that a dangerous web of greed and deception ensnares them and that this web threatens not only Luksaval Enterprises and their budding relationship—but also their very lives.
