In Sandie Jones' I Would Die for You, Nicole Forbes believes she's left her past behind her. In 2011, she lives happily in seaside Coronado, California with her military (navy SEAL) husband Brad and their eight-year-old daughter Hannah.

That life starts to unravel when she opens her door to Zoe Mortimer, who's writing a book on Ben Edwards, once leading man of superhot 1980s British band Secret Oktober. That same day, Hannah goes missing - according to the school, her aunt picked her up.

As Nicole and Brad frantically search for her, Jones takes her readers back in time to 1986 London to introduce Nicole's younger sister Cassie and groupie Amelia in a riotous crowd of Secret Oktober fans. Cassie will do anything to get Ben Edwards' attention.

As Cassie and Amelia worm their way into the band's inner circle and their reckless lifestyle, Nicole works in a restaurant, and sings at a local bar. Ben hears her there and, unbeknownst to Cassie, a close relationship slowly develops between them. When tragedy ultimately strikes, Nicole flees to America.

Now, as past secrets are revealed and the truth of what happened so long ago, Nicole tries very hard to prevent it from imploding her present life.
