Here's a brief run down.Marita was engaged to Remmy, he died and it broke her heart.Shemar was married and divorced and that broke his heart.However, the vacation turned out to be perfect for the both of them although they had to deal with jealous friends.Shemar tried to deny his feelings for Marita (which i thought was dumb). He really treated her bad in the beginning but i guess he realised that she was a deep person. Marita wanted to regain their friendship but Shemar made it difficult for her to do so and it created tension between them.Later in the novel, they both realise their fondness for each other is strong and instead of denying it, they let it take over and resulted in them making passionate love.What made this story so beautiful is the way Ms. Bussey incorporated action and envy into the plot. Pam (Shemar's "cousin", had a love for him that drove her to do anything, even hurt Marita.Then there was Valerian, the guy who murdered Marita's fiance Remmy. He had a passion for revenge from Marita and this passion led him to conspire with Pam to kidnap Marita and allow her to be taken to a home where women's bodies are used.This story was really sweet and exciting. I never wanted to put down this book.If you read this book and enjoyed it, i guarantee you will enjoy "Images of Ecstasy". Also written by Ms. Bussey.The girl got talent going on.
