Tell It Like It Is

Northstar Security

When Northstar Security’s unconventional agent Justine Shelby is assigned to protect world-renowned author Rosalee Kane from escalating death threats, she has no interest in sharing the mission—especially not with Rosalee’s by-the-book nephew. Shelby learned the hard way to rely only on herself. But FBI Special Agent Nelson Kane insists on joining the case, and Shelby reluctantly agrees, knowing Rosalee’s life may depend on it.

Kane harbors a deep mistrust of Northstar Security, blaming them for his near-fatal shooting two years earlier. Meeting Shelby, with her headstrong confidence and unorthodox methods, only deepens his suspicion. Yet when the threats turn deadly and their every move is anticipated, Kane realizes he can depend on her in ways he never expected.

As the unlikely partners uncover layers of betrayal, one question looms: can they expose the truth before time runs out—and before Rosalee becomes the final victim?
