She's hit with an unexpected challenge when the commissioner assigns superstar magazine journalist Jameson Rook to ride along with her to research an article on New York's Finest.

As she works to unravel the secrets of the murdered real estate tycoon, she must also confront the spark between them. The one called heat.
