By the time she was twelve, she had run away from home, dropped out of school, and fled blindly into the arms of a brutal pimp.

But then her life was transformed through the unexpected kindness of a teacher and a counselor.

When a beautiful southern debutante lands on his doorstep, she awakens a hunger that won’t be ignored. If only she wasn’t planning on winning back the ex-fiancé she left at the altar… Despite the potential for ruin, heat continues to build between Naomi and Jason beneath the sultry Florida sunshine, consuming them both.
