Crystal Pierre Grey was married to Stephen Grey, a polished corporate executive from New Jersey with a good job-and a mother who never liked Crystal from the start. Coming from a low-income background, Crystal never stood a chance in his mother's eyes. Stephen tried to balance the two women in his life, constantly pulled between pleasing the woman who raised him and the one he chose to marry.
Eventually, the pressure broke them. They packed up and moved to Florida, chasing peace far from the constant tension. For a little while, it actually seemed to worked. Things were quiet, even happy-until a man named Giovanni Kent came around.
Tall, sexy, and fresh out of prison, Giovanni wasn't shy about his interest in Crystal. He made it clear he didn't care she was married. His charm was dangerous, and his presence stirred something in her she didn't expect.
What started as a fresh start slowly turned into something unstable. And Crystal's once simple life was about to get complicated.
