Synopsis:
Growing
up on the outskirts of Las Vegas as the daughter of notorious strip
club owner, Stephen Knox, and a mother who abandoned her at birth, life
was less than kind to a young Antoinette.
After a failed teenage suicide attempt, Toni hit the road in search of a life free of undeserved cruelty and any resemblance to her past.
Years later, Toni is lost in a dead end marriage and makes a painful confession that sends her back to the one place she always wanted to escape. But can she really right the wrongs that haunt her? Toni soon finds that the only place where things stay the same is in your mind.
When her path crosses with David Stark, childhood playmate turned one night stand, she cannot deny the spike in temperature she feels every time he's near or the scorching dreams that flood her at night.
Digging through the years of heartache, Toni soon finds herself torn between the man she is committed to and the one who has always held her heart. As each layer unfolds before her, she discovers the root cause of her pain. Always believing the source was external, nothing could prepare her for the truth.

Stories for Amanda (Contributing Author)
Taking my index finger and placing
it in my mouth, I slowly licked the top and sides before running my hand across
my stomach and into my panties without breaking eye contact. Rolling my head
back, I closed my eyes. “Get out.”
“Uh, uh, no way.”
He stood motionless as he leaned against the dresser, his eyes fixed on the
hand between my legs.
Giving an
indignant sigh, I removed my hand and walked over to him. Running the index
finger across my lips, inhaling the heady scent, I smiled lazily as his
breathing increased. Without a word, I dipped my finger into his coffee mug and
swirled it around a few times before giving it a shake and licking off the
excess.
Batting my
eyelashes, I smiled innocently. “I noticed yesterday you were low on sugar. You’re
welcome.”
