Publisher's summary

Lynn Ames' first novel, The Price of Fame, has been called "absorbing and filled with romance" (Lori L. Lake, Midwest Book Review). Now Ames is back with the second installment in the lives of Katherine Kyle and Jamison Parker.

Kate and Jay want nothing more than to focus on their love. But as Kate settles in to a new profession, she and Jay become caught up in the middle of a deadly scheme - pawns in a larger game in which the stakes are nothing less than control of the country.

In her new novel of corruption, greed, romance, and danger, Lynn Ames takes us on an unforgettable journey of harrowing conspiracy - and establishes herself as a mistress of suspense. The Cost of Commitment. It could be everything....

Great sequel!

Another great story! I jumped right into this after finishing book 1, and am headed to book 3 now. I NEVER cry when reading a book, but this one had me all choked up. Very well written and narrated.

Perfect second book to the story

My only thought is that it’s not a stand alone book you had to know the story before.

Pretty good for the plot, suspense, action scenes

Pros: plot of political intrigue and decent cast of characters.

Cons: breathy narrator. And the two main characters continually exclaiming their undying devotion seems like merely like a way to pad the page count. After the hundredth ‘do you know how much I love you?!’ it gets trite. And the sex scenes also don’t add value to listening experience. But that’s a matter of taste. Erotica isn’t necessary to fill pages in a well written story. I fast forwarded over them. Not a strong point in the 80’s era story.

Political Intrigue

The continuing story of Jay and Kate is a testament to the strength of love and commitment. A wonderful performance and second in the series.

I love this book.

The Cost of Commitment by Lynn Ames is great! This ongoing series about Jay and Kate is wonderful. Politics, intrigue, and romance. Emily Beresford does a wonderful job with the narration. Thanks for making this great book available on Audible.
