Overview

Sometimes, I want to run away. Somewhere where no one knows me. Maybe then I could live my life in a manner no one expects of me. The way I want to live it. A place where no one will judge me. Somewhere I’ll just be left alone.

Even I know that’s wishful thinking. My agent would hunt me down. I am contracted for another book, after all. Something to give Alexander’s Publishing House, the largest publishers in the world, another best-seller to tuck under their belt.

I know I need a break. I need to go somewhere I can just be myself. I’m excited to book an only for lesbians cruise to the Caribbean. It’s time I do something for me.

Unfortunately, fate has other plans. When my best friend is murdered in cold blood, I don’t feel like I can leave until her killer is brought to justice. As if that wasn’t enough, my management decides it’s the best time to keep up appearances and attend local charity events. They make certain I know a date is mandatory.

The only thing keeping me standing is the woman investigating my friend’s murder. She’s stunning. We quickly form a bond. I can’t stop thinking about her. I’ve fought my sexuality for a long time, but now that I’m ready to be who I really am instead of hiding behind a public facade, I can’t imagine it being with anyone else.

Before I know it, I become the sole focus of my friend’s murderer’s attention. And never in a million years would I have guessed who it is.

In order for me to survive, I have to rely on Officer Sharpe and her unmatched instincts and skills. She says I gave her a reason to live. My only desire is that she’ll be able to save my life so I have a chance to prove to her that her love is the greatest gift of all.
