A wild and raucous ride through the crazy world of Florida politics Kelly reported the news. But when a bomb is left on her desk, she becomes the news. Someone wants her to stop reporting on proposed developments that threaten to destroy the landscape and bucolic nature of rural Florida. Bart taught Kelly how to be a compassionate journalist. And in the process, he became the great love of her life. But Bart doesn't realize the price Kelly pays with each story and each threat to their love and her life. While Kelly continues digging into the contentious politics, her personal life explodes and exposes her darkest secrets. A murder/suicide connected to Kelly's sources exposes further deceptions. When Santa Claus totes a gun during the annual Christmas parade, Bart and Kelly begin to piece together the whole story. Danger lurks in the dark shadows, and unless the newspaper duo can reveal it all, more than a bomb will threaten Kelly's life. And their love will be the ultimate sacrifice for failing.
