From Booklist
When television news anchor Christine Cannon retreats to the house she co-owns with ex-husband Joe, the last person she expects to run into is Joe, with his 18-year-old wife. And Joe certainly didn't want to run into his newshound ex-wife while trying to keep an old friend's daughter, Marina, safe through a marriage of convenience. Rekindled sparks fly between the lovers as they face the problems that wrecked their marriage, and Joe realizes he needs Christine's help to protect Marina, who turns out to be the daughter of the leader of a war-torn country in Europe, from the press. Christine and Joe must choose between their careers and the safety of the young woman.
