Default Unknown starting problem

I have a 1991 honda accord wagon (ex model) with a starting issue. A few weeks ago when we last had below freezing (around 2° F) weather I parked my car in the parking garage by my work and started my shift. When I came out a couple hours later my car started fine. I sat there with the engine on waiting for the heat to kick in. When I went to put it in reverse it died. Tried jumping it, but with no luck. Because of the cold weather, I thought it might be a fuel line freeze, so attempted putting gas and Heet in with also no luck. I have done some troubleshooting and have hit a dead end. Heres the symptoms:
-Fuel pump active and definitely sending gas.
-Getting Spark
-fuel relay is good
-fuses good
-starter functional

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Missing something?

You put it in reverse & it just died. Why did you immediately try jumping it? Or did you try to re-start it & the starter wouldn't crank?
