There's an old saying: The first lie wins...
At a party with her fiancé Ryan Sumner, Evie Porter is not looking for trouble. But trouble has found her.
A woman approaches. She's using her name. And Evie knows it's a warning.
Because Evie Porter is not her real name. It's her job.
Ryan Sumner is not her future husband. He's her target.
And this woman showing up now can only mean one thing. Her employer is watching. One mistake and she's dead.
To save herself, and escape her employer for good, Evie must set the last perfect trap. Which means using herself as bait...
