Anna Sanderson is not your average thirty-something. She's a war journalist based in one of the most troubled countries in the world-Afghanistan. Sexy, tough as nails, and ballsy as hell, she won't stop at anything to get her scoop or the man she wants.

But the game changes when she meets Mr Delectable-handsome, aloof, and secretive, he frustratingly keeps Anna guessing if he's into her or not. Things take a nasty turn when Anna's best friend Kelly discovers that her boyfriend, Rich, has been cheating on her and Anna unearths a series of secrets which tie in her man. The mission-Operation Lipstick-takes Anna on a journey into the heart of the Helmand Province and the lair of the most feared movements of the world-the Taliban.

Will Kelly get her revenge? Will Anna survive to tell her story? Will she get her man?
