BLURB:
Jenna
Gregor is a busy, single mom of two, successfully overseeing a Perinatal Wing
in a downtown Nashville clinic. On the surface, Jenna’s achievements are many,
her future bright and promising. But in her past are secrets, sins she doesn’t
want exposed. Sins someone else doesn’t want to forget, or forgive.
Just
as Jenna’s life finally seems to be falling back into place after her bitter
divorce—Bennett Aston can handle her sarcasm and stubbornness quite nicely—it
all begins to unravel. Someone is lurking, hiding in theshadows, slowly and
meticulously ruining Jenna’s well-crafted world. As threats evolve, suspicions
grow, and death becomes a vivid reality, Jenna must decide whom she can trust
and find her allies, before her secrets become her undoing.

EXCERPTS
Desiree sat alone in the shadows of the dimly lit room.
She was lonely, heartbroken, frustrated, but most of all,
angry. It possessed her, consumed her. And it wasn’t the pure old-fashioned mad
where a good long walk could blow off the steam, it was fury. The desperate
kind—the kind that drove you mad and pushed you to hate.
The hate had pushed her to depression, then shoved her to
obsession.
How could I have failed once more? The voice in her head
sounded whiney, even to her own mind. That irritated her too.
She heaved a sigh, slouched lower in the lone chair
furnishing her current home, careful that her foot did not touch the sliver of
sunlight filtering through the flimsy curtain. She didn’t want any part of the
light. Only darkness.
Only shadows.
She deserved them after another failure. She’d been certain
her plan was foolproof. Certain that after bouncing from hospital to hospital
in the last five years, she had formulated a cunning and clever plan. A plan
that has yet to be executed, she mulled with a surge of annoyance.
Though execution had been her exact intent this morning when
she stepped out of her dingy room.
She’d been ready. Ready and willing to take what wasn’t hers
and make it become hers. But that chipper little nurse ruined it all. She’d
come in just as Desiree was grabbing that beautiful newborn from her warm pink
blankets and soft bed.
