Tracie Howard and Danita Carter's previous joint effort, Revenge Is Best Served Cold, has been praised by Booklist as 'consistently compelling' and Essence proclaims it a 'glitzy romp.' In this tale of secrets and style, a wealthy Wall Street investment banker, Lyle Johnson, seems to have found an ideal business partner in Tess Aventura Dubois. She is a wealthy widow who has just moved back to New York City with enough cash to make his bar a swinging night spot. But behind her glamorous facade, lays a disturbing secret that could be Lyle's downfall.
