The President of the United States has been assassinated.
Grace Coolidge is now a widow.
She will never forget the horror of that day.
Or the betrayal of those who were sworn to protect the president.
But she’ll also never forget John Marin, the Secret Service agent who carried her to safety and saved her sanity.
Now she is forced to accept protection in order to fulfill her public duties, and he is the only man she can trust to protect her.
After the President was assassinated on his watch, John sold everything he owned and left town. He wants no part of that life, and is perfectly content with good rum and willing women.
But when Grace tracks him down and begs him to protect her, he finds it hard to resist the beautiful, haunted woman. He knows there is more to this than leading her through crowds with his hand on her back. She is hiding something, and he will stop at nothing to get to the truth.
Whatever her past, she is a lady first, and he will protect her with his life, no matter the cost.
It was only two weeks, she said. But he knows better.
A lifetime wouldn’t be enough with this woman.

UNITED INDIE BOOK BLOG REVIEW
REVIEWER: LAURA
RATING: 4 STARS
This is a hot and suspenseful story. The sexual tension between Grace and John sizzles. It is amazing that they are able to keep calm in each other's presence. When they kiss it is hotter than most full sex scenes. John keeps threatening Grace with a spanking. The scene at the New York dinner party is a comic relief. I liked that even though John was upset he was able to see the craziness of the situation.
I was disappointed in the resolution of the danger for Grace. The politics got in the way of the rest of the story. I was glad when the plot went back to more of the main characters. Over all it is a really good book.
Author Bio
Jade Cary wrote elaborate fantasies in her head from the
time she was a small child. The fantasies included strong men and strong,
loving relationships. She discovered romance novels quite by accident, once
she'd devoured everything by Stephen King and Joseph Wambaugh. Desperate for
something new to read, she picked up The Other Side of Midnight by Sidney
Sheldon. After that, she found Scruples, by Judith Krantz. A whole new world
opened up, and she buried herself in everything these authors wrote. She was
fascinated with how the stories were able to capture her and take her to
another place. But, more than that, she paid attention to how the words, the
writing, made her feel.
She discovered a talent for writing later in life, after careers were had and
kids were moving about on their own. She falls in love on a daily basis with
her characters, and hopes readers will do the same.
Her first novel, The Point of it All, is the story of two people brought
together under extraordinary circumstances. An unapologetic alpha hero who will
stop at nothing to keep the woman he loves safe, and a strong, intelligent
heroine who finds his supercilious, high-handed ways trying at best, find each
other as both fight for freedom, independence, and ultimately love.
A Southern California girl born and bred, her travels to exotic locales inspire
rich storytelling, her husband inspires the romance, and her kids inspire the
laughs. Jade lives in SoCal with her family.
