But itโs a trip that may land her in prisonโor worseโฆ When twenty-eight-year-old Trudy Bell lands a secretarial position at a travel agency, she feels like a new woman. And her warm, friendly personality soon wins her the adoration of her colleaguesโwith one exception. Ann Oliver, the only other African American employee, is a high-level manager who despises the low-income black experience Trudy represents. But no one is going to ruin Trudyโs new life.

Before long sheโs leading a double-lifeโAnnโs lifeโcomplete with a secret apartment where she entertains the men she meets at upscale bars. But their worlds collide the night Trudy brings home the wrong manโone who has an angry score to settle. With Ann. Now, unless Trudy can convince him sheโs not the woman heโs after, she may pay the highest price of allโฆ
