Giving a man her all, just for him to flaunt his indiscretions in her face is not what Talia Wilbourn imagined for her life when she met Satchel ‘Satch’ Malone. After years of holding her head high amid the whispers and secrets, she finally decides to make a move for herself, only to be hit by another unexpected blow. Being the bigger person once again, Talia stands by Satch when a deadly situation arises. She never expects that walking away with only the clothes on her back and the money in her secret account would place a target on her back. Marsean comes to town to pay his respects to a business partner. However, when greed and envy start to affect his business, he prolongs his stay.

In honor of his best friend, Toxin refuses to allow anyone to take advantage of Satch, even in death; regardless of who it is. Auntie Ethel is the poster child for misery loves company.
