Broad-shouldered Richard Burke has sacrificed a normal life chasing the next big story as a reporter. On rest from two years overseas, he's approached by the CIA in an effort to turn his next big story into a spy mission. The end game: Cuba and the take down of the Castros.

Enter the alluring Magdelena, with her ex-revolutionary past and scars to prove it. She's not faring well under Castro's communism, doing laundry for rich patrons under the punishing supervision of Cuba's internal spy network. She's looking for an out, for love—to feel again. Richard Burke is exactly what she wants, and nothing she needs.

Thrown together, torn apart, betrayed and beaten, the lovers must overcome years of political animosity to beat the odds. Can they really afford to choose each other, or will their love come at the ultimate price?
