Publisher's Synopsis
Fearless, fashionable, Federal Agent Kylie Anderson takes a bullet, saves the President, convalesces on her family's cruise ship, battles hijackers and annoys her mother.
A decade ago, American heiress Kylie Anderson changed her name and abandoned her life as a carefree debutante in order to find purpose (and anonymity) as a Federal Agent with the DEA.
But Kylie's family ties continue to bind, and an impromptu dinner with her great-uncle, Archibald Anderson, places Kylie in the right place at the right time to foil an assassination attempt against the President.
Kylie finds the resulting media spotlight almost as painful as the gunshot wound to her shoulder. Desperate to escape the unwanted attention, Kylie reluctantly agrees to join her socialite mother and wheelchair-bound father, along with her beloved Uncle Arch, on a three-week cruise aboard Anderson Cruise Lines' newest luxury liner, the Morning Glory.
For a few fun-and-sun-filled days Kylie enjoys a lighthearted shipboard romance while working diligently on her physical therapy. However, her vacation-cum-disability-leave soon becomes a battle for survival when hijackers board the cruise ship, murdering the head of security and holding the wealthiest passengers for ransom.
Kylie must outwit and outmaneuver the hijackers as she seeks to help the hostages escape while trying to determine if one of her fellow captives is actually the mastermind behind their high stakes, high seas kidnapping.
