Trapped by a decision that she made five years earlier when she was only seventeen, Amara must leave the life that she knows behind and enter a world filled with secrets, sex and deception.

Amara was far too young, naïve and emotional to make such a drastic decision that would forever impact her life. She felt as though she had no choice –her family was at stake. She made an extreme sacrifice in order to help her mother and father…even though he really didn’t deserve it.

Amara had been comfortable in her life. It had been five years since she basically gave herself to a stranger in order to pay for her family’s debts. She was content in her life; waitressing at her uncle’s restaurant and “unofficially” dating a wonderful man. She was shocked when she was finally approached in order to keep her part of the bargain.

She would have to leave the country with this stranger, leave her mother and leave the man that she was in love with. What other choice did she have? She could run, hide, just disappear, but the man that owned her had a sick ability to know everything about her and her loved ones. There was no running, no escaping the inevitable. The decision had been made – now she has to live with it.

Amara is thrust into the lifestyle of a high priced escort. She must entertain rich, powerful men at the request of her boss. But if that isn’t bad enough, Amara discovers that there is more to her arrangement than she originally thought. Her life is now filled with loneliness, heartache and fear. She misses her boyfriend, Colin, desperately. She is devastated when she finds out that he is engaged to be married to another woman.

This book takes some pretty big twists and turns. What would you do if you were faced with a similar situation? Would you sacrifice yourself in order to save your family? Would you just leave the love of your life? I was not expecting it to end the way it did…it just makes me want to read the next book that much more! Family secrets, drama, love, angst, lust, lies, this book has it all!
