Everyone knows the name Elvis Presley. He was the voice playing on every radio station, the boy with the power to command an audience by raising a single finger, and the hottest thing to hit the music industry since God gave Man a voice. But before the icon, Evangeline Reeves met the rebel, the criminal, and the soldier behind the name. Their meetings, though only brief and serendipitous, always left a lasting impression. That is, until one night shared in a jail cell sent them down a path neither could return from. Quickly finding herself wrapped in an enigmatic love affair, everything seemed perfect for once in her life, until Evie made a heart-wrenching discovery, and wrought with fresh betrayal, she fled.

Now, forced to confront her memories of the musician following his death, she realizes his career, and perhaps his very existence, which always seemed to hang by a thread, was in her hands all along.

Absolutely nothing could prepare her for the whirlwind of scandal she encountered when she first re-entered this forbidden affair, capable of tearing the remains of her family to pieces.
