After a passion-filled night with Dan Foreman, Madison Sommers is shocked to awake and find that Dan is gone without any goodbye. Things become even more bazaar when Madison tries to seek him out for an explication and discovers that Dane has disappeared without a trace. As the right hand to the Speaker of the U.S. House of Representatives, Madison decides to use her connections to uncover what happened to Dan. However, the more she digs, the more dangerous secrets are determined to remain hidden. Has Madison bitten off more than she can chew?

CIA Agent Dan Foreman is working undercover in the Speaker of the House office pursuing illegal gun trafficking outlaws. The last thing Dan needs while carrying out his mission is to become romantically involved; yet, that's exactly what happens the moment he lays eyes on his boss, Madison Sommers. No matter how hard he tries to deny it - his passion for Madison will not be denied. But, before their romance can blossom, both the President and Vice- President of the United States fall gravely ill and Dan is framed as the very person that he is tracking. In a race against time, will Dan and Madison be able to reveal the crooked politician before it is too late or will the evil mastermind gain the upper hand?

I found Until the Dawn to be a non-stop, action-packed thriller that had me perched on the edge of my seat with total excitement until the very end. The plot is filled with a super-hot romance and danger lurking around every corner. Madison is a feisty, clever, strong-willed heroine who is determined to stand by her man. Likewise, Dan is a smart, determined, die-head type of hero that oozes great sex appeal. It's no wonder that Madison could not deny his alluring charm. Throw in a mega plot to overthrow the current government at any cost, then you have a fantastic, suspenseful tale on your hands.

Desiree Holt & Cerise DeLand are off to a marvelous start in their Nemesis' series with their introduction novel, Until the Dawn.
