Opis

By the decree of her father Stu, Natrisha Kincaid is sold into an abusive marriage to have his monetary debts forgiven. Her older sister, Lenora Kincaid is heartbroken as she watches their father drag her beloved younger sister from the family home in the late evening and thrown into the arms of the town menace, Don Risor. After seeing the sale of her sister, Lenora becomes at odds with Stu and blames him for Natrisha's ordeal. Eventually, Lenora seeks help at Pathways, a battered women's shelter. There she meets Shayna Lawson, a social worker and abuse counselor. Together they will fight the judicial system with the hope of convincing the judge to grant Natrisha a divorce and remove her from Risor's house to safety. On a silent dark night, Lenora is brutally murdered in her father's home. Stu Kincaid also loses his life. News of their deaths is shocking to both Natrisha and Shayna. After Lenora dies, Shayna decides to take on the monumental tasks to free Natrisha and solve her sister's murder. In the midst of their trials, an English business man comes to Miami. Carter Wesley is looking to expand his multi-million dollar real estate empire and decides to purchase and renovate a deteriorating residential tower on Miami's ocean front. The current owner of the tower, the shrewd Paul Kolinsky, frequently taunts Carter. This business deal will add more drama to Carter's life than he expected. Just minutes before he is scheduled to meet with Kolinsky, Carter sees Natrisha working the breakfast rush hour at his luxury hotel. He is instantly mesmerized by the raven-haired beauty. He has to have her. His attraction for Natrisha will lead to a steamy encounter between them that will bind them together for eternity.
