Hornet's Nest. The Jara Quinn Series, #1

Jara Quinn's life changed forever in college when her parents were killed in a car accident, leaving her adrift and grieving. Determined to honor their memory, she completed her studies and found solace in the arms of Katerina Lansing, the passionate and ambitious woman who became her first love. But after graduation, life pulled them in different directions-Jara joined the FBI, driven by a need for justice, while Katerina pursued a law career, dedicated to upholding the truth.
Though they stayed in touch, their relationship became a bittersweet friendship rather than the romance they once shared. Years later, Katerina's world is turned upside down when her father announces his bid for president and her beloved grandmother dies under suspicious circumstances after learning her Foundation was hemorrhaging money. Desperate and unsure whom to trust, Katerina reaches out to Jara for help.
Reunited, the spark between them reignites while they confront the mysteries surrounding Katerina's powerful family. As the pair delves deeper, they uncover hidden truths, dangerous alliances, and a sinister plot that threatens the people they hold dear. The dangers they face test not only their courage but the fragile bond of their rekindled love. In the face of secrets, betrayal, and imminent danger, Jara and Katerina must decide if their love is real and strong enough to withstand the darkness that surrounds them.
With lives at stake and time running out, can they protect Katerina's family and find a way to heal themselves?
