"Monroe keeps the suspense high, and readers will draw a bated breath with the turn of each page."
—Booklist
Dolores Reese spent her childhood in foster care, like Floyd Watson, a local boy who intrigues her from the moment they meet. When one bad decision sends an innocent Floyd to prison for life, Dolores promises to stick by him. But while Floyd's world stands still, Dolores meets a new man who promises her the kind of future she's always wanted—the kind she once imagined having with Floyd. But when Floyd is suddenly freed on new evidence, Dolores is torn and must make a fateful decision. And if she isn't careful, Dolores just might find out what happens when love, dishonesty, and dangerous jealousy collide.
"Monroe serves up a tasty dish of murder, deception, lust, and just deserts."
—Library Journal
"Full of all the drama and humor that Mary Monroe is known for."
