Book Description:
When she was only eight years old, Riley O’Brien survived the unimaginable: the deaths of her mother and sister. As a result she vowed never to desert her father, a brilliant young congressman whose star was on the rise. Now, twenty-one years later, after trading her dreams of a normal life for his ambitions, Riley stands by her father’s side as he makes a bid for the presidency. Growing up in the political spotlight, she has become an expert at hiding her feelings behind the surface of her regal beauty. But her defenses are about to be shattered.
Investigative reporter Jake Mahoney resents wasting his time covering an ice princess at a presidential campaign rally. But when a car bomb throws him–literally–on top of the candidate’s daughter, Jake quickly realizes that Riley O’Brien is pure fire. No one has ever gotten under his skin like this before. Their attraction is instant, and possibly fatal, as dangerous secrets from the past explode into the present, destroying one life after another in a nightmare of blind ambition.

Riley O'Brien's father is touted to be the next president of the US. Since her mother and sister died, Riley has stood by her father's side. Now, Jake Mahoney, a reporter appears in her life, along with a series of fatal events. Riley is faced with many decisions and some deadly encounters. Davis has written a good if predictable romantic suspense novel. She builds the romance quite nicely and weaves in some subplots involving other characters to keep the reader guessing. Recommended.
