Jax I was born and bred to be the man I am today. My father and his father were both graduates from The United States Naval Academy in Annapolis. Both went on to become helicopter pilots. Both had seen plenty of action. Both had met and caused devastation. Both men, who I respect more above all, had served and protected the United States and her people honorably for decades. My best friend, William Cruz, who attended the academy with me, had flown beside me, had lived the same life as I had and shared the same ambitions in life, was gone now. This was not part of the plan. Will and I were supposed to have each other’s backs, support each other and never let anything supersede our bond.Francesca I sat on Norfolk Beach needing to feel close to him on the anniversary of his death. It was a beautiful day in May and I was cutting class. I had done the same every year since he passed. Jaxson Irons was only supposed to be in Pensacola for a year. But now three years later I still hadn't heard from him. I saw a man running down the beach and I knew immediately who it was. Jaxson didn't respond the way I had dreamed he would. He told me we would catch up someday soon. I stood and watched until he was gone. Thump, thump. I placed my hand on my chest as I felt my heart beat again for what felt like the first time in three years. Thump, thump. I felt the blood moving quickly through my body. It’s heat once again present. Thump, thump. I looked up at the sky and let out a breath. A breath that I had been holding forever. Thump, thump. I felt tears fall down my face as I raised my hands in the air and laughed out loud. Just then the clouds parted for the first time in forever. I saw the sun smiling down on me.

 Secrets!  So many secrets!  Jax just keeps finding out just how much his mother and father have kept hidden from him all these years.  Things are not as they seem.  No matter what, Jax knows he can only rely on himself and his closest circle of friends.  Frankie and her family must be protected at all costs.  He will not allow the manipulators to touch Frankie again.

Jax was raised with one purpose - political excellence and power.  The powers that want to control our country seek to also control Jax and his family, just like they have done for generations. Marriages are arranged for political convenience and  blackmail is a daily occurrence. They will stop at nothing to get their way.  Murder has already happened ... and it still a threat to take seriously.

This is the conclusion of Jax and Frankie's struggle.  It takes courage to do what Jax intends to do to play this game of politics.  This is also a gamble his closest friends are willing to take with him.  They were all committed to protect and serve the nation.  They will not allow their rights to be usurped by this group of manipulators to dictate their future.

MJ Fields is now a seasoned erotic romance author.  He books are lustful, emotional, but most of all real.  Her characters could be your neighbors down the street stripped of all protective masks, in the raw.  These characters will tug at your hearts.  Their love affair is fraught with danger and manipulation by people who will not allow them to simply live.  I love that no matter what obstacles come their way, love finds its way.  MJ you are the eternal romantic and I love your work!
