The messes and mistakes of one’s life don’t usually happen by accident but by choice…
Pregnant and alone, Grace awakens to the smell of smoke. There’s a fire in the house, and there appears to be no way out. How did she wind up in this predicament?
Grace’s college sweetheart, Maurice, is a handsome Creole painter from New Orleans. Their love affair is wild and passionate, but Maurice is noncommittal and focused on developing his art career. Grace gives up her dream of marriage to him and moves on to Trevor, a handsome computer tech from Harlem, New York, who she meets at work. Their relationship is not as intensely passionate, but feels more secure. Just as Grace is about to accept a marriage proposal from Trevor, Maurice reappears in her life, and she realizes she’s not truly over him. After suffering some personal trauma, Maurice now has a new attitude about marriage and in his effort to regain Grace’s heart, he reveals Trevor’s secrets. Grace wonders if Maurice is telling the truth or if he’s lying to sully Trevor’s reputation. Torn between two lovers, Grace must make a choice. And her choice puts her in a dangerous and possibly deadly situation.
