Publisher's Summary

In an action-packed and thrilling new standalone novel from the beloved #1 New York Times bestselling author, a former government agent is drawn back into the world of covert ops for a very unconventional mission …

For Melanie Drake, school guidance counselor in a small Virginia town, the day’s challenges typically involve a playground scuffle or a student skipping school. It’s worlds away from her previous career as a vital part of the Office of Special Investigations. There, she devoted herself heart and soul to covert operations, the riskier the better.

Since leaving the government, Melanie has cherished her peaceful, calm existence, with her two beloved retired service dogs for company. Then a call comes from her former supervisor, Rich Patterson. He needs her back for a highly specialized assignment. An international group of billionaires is known to meet regularly for decadent dinners, and they always hire high-class escorts for the occasion. Only the most elegant, well-educated, and sophisticated women will do.

Infiltrating those meetings could yield information vital to national security. Melanie’s loyalty is indisputable. She’s willing to pose as an escort and glean every scrap of intel that she can. But these men aren’t just wealthy and powerful, they’re also exceptionally ruthless. One slip, and they won’t hesitate to eliminate Melanie, by any means necessary …

Predictable and somewhat monotonous

I have never read her novels and was pretty sure her style wasn't my usual genre but the price was good so I thought I would give it a try....Not for me. Story was predictable and the reader's voice was quite monotonous. A very bland read...not a mystery, not a romance...not sure what to peg it as. The storyline was all over the place.

Narration took away from story

Slow start, got a bit better, then not compelling. Narration not the best. Characters not particularly believable or compelling.

Sorry Fern Michaels

I found that the first part of the book had absolutely no relevance to the rest of the book. I did finish it but was really disappointed at the simplistic missions.
