About The Book:

When Gwynn Denning sees Sam Townsend at an event in town, she knows she will kill him. Townsend date-raped her friend, Tift Ainsley, back in college. Or at least that’s what Tift told her after she came back to her dorm that night. Gwynn swears that this will be the last time she kills. She’s a mother to an adorable little boy and the director of a home for neglected and abused children. Although her marriage is unraveling, her life is otherwise good, thanks to Dr. Kaufman, her therapist. Ever since she was a young girl, she’s wanted to eradicate the murderous thoughts that occasionally plagued her. When she learns that someone saw her leaving the event with Townsend, it sets off a series of catastrophic events that requires Gwynn to stay one step ahead of the law. Making matters worse, she’s fallen for the detective in

charge of investigating the murders she’s committed. The consequences of Gwynn’s actions forces her to confront the painful truth about her past and the dark secrets kept hidden by her family. 

Gwynn wants to be normal like everyone else. But how far will she go to stay out of prison?
