Truth and Lies — Marie Treanor

Seduction is dangerous; love is lethal...
In the isolated republic of Zavrekestan, home of the largest population of gifted psychics in the world, Roza Varenka is sorting out her life, and making use of her rare gift to protect the life of Opposition leader Lily Simonova during the election that could rescue her country from poverty and repression.
But when she encounters the dreaded secret police, her life explodes into intrigue, assassination and dangerous sensuality. For Suvakin, her enemy and interrogator, is both more and less than he seems, a troubled man of baffling contradictions; and yet Roza is drawn to him as to no one else she's ever met.
Temptation becomes seduction, intensified by the desire of each to persuade the other to their cause. Only no one knows what Suvakin's cause really is, and truth and lies are in danger of merging as he fights to save the woman he loves beyond sense and against all his training.
