Attorney Jillian Newman, advocate for the downtrodden and watchdog of the local police department, witnesses a horrible murder during the height of a thunderous storm in a downtown parking deck. Hunted by the gunmen, an attempt is made on her life and she is forced into police protection.
Detective Harrison Blake, one of the city's finest, is appointed lead detective on the downtown murder case. Prepared as always for just about anything when it comes to murder, the seasoned detective is completely caught off guard by his instant attraction to the witness. To make matters worse, she's the ex-wife of his nemesis, the district attorney.
However, neither the differences in their races nor their painful pasts can keep the attraction between the two from blossoming. When another attempt is made on Jillian's life, Harrison will risk it all, even his most guarded secret, for the woman he loves in I'll Be Your Shelter.
