Opis

From the stark surroundings of Folsom State Prison in Sacramento to the lush green Palm trees of Daytona Beach emerges a love affair between two people, both prisoners from vastly different worlds. Walking into the sunlight after eleven years in prison, Robert Steele needs a big score in order to retire from a life of crime. He is ready for his target-Victoria Brookfield, a prisoner in a marriage gone bad. Steele befriends her on FaceBook, but when they meet for coffee in the bookstore their worlds collide. They find themselves caught in a web of longing, passion, love, and deceit as their lives spin out of control. They aren't the only ones caught in the crazy world of social media. Victoria's neighbor, Polly Pringle, seventy-two, widowed, is looking for companionship when she signs up on a dating site. A lovely candlelight dinner and maybe a night at the symphony are her goals. Victoria and Polly turn to social media in hopes of easing their loneliness, and soon find they get more than they bargained for: social media snares them into its web; now, will they be able to cut their way free?
