She once walked the glittering, dangerous edge of Manhattan nightlife as a high-priced escort to the elite. A past she's buried deep. Or so she thought.Beau Johnson, meanwhile, is no stranger to secrets. While voters see a principled leader, the truth is far darker. He's the architect of a powerful and violent empire one that controls illegal arms and narcotics trafficking across Louisiana, Texas, and Arkansas.When ghosts from Jessica's past return and the DEA starts closing in on Beau, their carefully constructed world begins to collapse. And in a marriage built on lies, trust may be the most deadly illusion of all.
