Winner of the African American Literary Award for Fiction, Essence best-selling author Victoria Christopher Murray delivers a cautionary tale about debt and the dangers of an overly tempting offer. Married at 17, Adam and Evia Langston have worked their way up from rags to riches. But as they are enjoying all the trappings of their success, a financial downturn leaves them teetering on the brink of disaster. And that's when Evia's boss makes the Langstons a five-million- dollar offer they can't refuse.
