Then tragedy strikes, and Rayne slowly discovers that the story of her life is just beginning, and nothing and no one are as they seem . . .
Gayle has been Rayne’s best friend for years and always secretly wished that her life was more like Rayne’s, from Rayne’s wonderful husband to her burgeoning success. Gayle had been the one to introduce Paul to Rayne and a small part of her still regrets the day. Although Gayle married a good man and has a good life, she can’t help feeling that the grass may be greener on the other side. Out of a deep sense of guilt, Gayle tries to help Rayne along the road to recovery, even at the expense of her own marriage . . .
