"Keeping up with the Joneses" was always an idiom Mong Lan grew up with as a Vietnamese American. She heard it on TV in those black and white shows made in the 60's, 70's, 80's and the movies. That same idiom applied to her family's life philosophy, just on a smaller scale and dressed in a different culture.

Ainsley Caree Hudson didn't have a typical childhood; at eight years old she was the victim of abusive parents who didn't care about her, what happened to her or who did what to her. Until one night a man came in and rescued her. She asked his name and he told her it was "G" and then she asked him if he was an angel; he told her if that's what she needed he would be her angel. Her parents had tried to sell her to "G" to get out of debt and this angered the man so, that he took her away from there and had her parents killed. He placed her in a loving home with a forged birth certificate and told her to grow up and make something of herself. Twenty-two years later, she was an emergency room doctor at a hospital in Philadelphia and as fate would have it, her path would cross with her angel again but just not in the way you would think. Would this angel be able to help her deal with the night terrors, help her learn to love and in return find salvation in her arms? Would she be able to look past his dangerous lifestyle enough to let him in? Only time would tell. Join Ainsley as she inadvertently goes deep into the Mafia to discover it's nothing like the movies. MOST OF THE PEOPLE, PLACES AND THINGS ARE ALL FICTIONAL.
