Destiny Donne - Desi for short - is an exotic animal vet who's given up on the rest of life to concentrate on her career until Tom Jenks walks in her door. He brings with him a drug like no other; it's called skydiving, and she's addicted before she can say no. She quickly begins an affair with Tom and becomes enmeshed in his world of danger, adrenaline, and yearning sexuality, but when the subject of murder arises between them, she'll have to pull out of the dangerous tailspin she's fallen into before she's manipulated into ruining--or losing--her life.
