Cruelly manipulated into a heated election race, Cara's only hope is to stay one step ahead of her power-hungry running mate. As the truth of the would-be governor's political and personal life comes to light, Cara enlists the help of Lieutenant Harry Oberlin, a state trooper intent on earning her trust and her love. Still holding close the memory of her late husband, can Cara dare surrender her heart - when so much is at stake?
