Secrets always have a way of being found out and Diana was
learning the hard way that it is better to start facing
them before it is too late. She also knew she had to
confront her own fears about past deeds and lies, even if
this involved leaving her beloved nine-year old daughter
Jaye to do it.
Despite the positive goals and gains she makes for herself,
such as overcoming her addiction to prescription
medications, Diana focuses so much on how she is going to
do things that she fails to heed the sage advice of others,
including her brother, Connor, and almost becomes in danger
of losing Jaye and a chance at love.
By a twist in circumstances resulting from lost courage,
Diana ends up working in her old hometown and has to re-
connect with Tyler Benson, her high school sweetheart and
the unknown father of Jaye. When her longing for him start
getting hot, she is determined to make them go cold as she
doesn't think Tyler can handle the impact of her secrets.
If they come out, she knows she could end up destroying his
career. But, can she keep her finger in the dike that
holds back the secret sins of her past? Is lost love the
price to pay for pride?
Darlene Gardner has succeeded in spinning an intriguing
story based on Diana's struggle to overcome past mistakes.
The story line works very well and the sub-plots
reverberate the main theme as other characters come to
terms with their own ways of dealing with past hurts and
family pressures. While there are times you just want to
shake Diana for trying to do the right thing but making the
wrong decision, this story will grip your heart.
Nothing's harder than moving back to your hometown after
you've hit rock bottom—unless it's telling your high school
sweetheart he's the father of your nine-year-old daughter.
Diana Smith still has feelings for Tyler Benson. But
they're not lovesick kids anymore. He's a straight-arrow
prosecutor, and she's a single mom struggling to make a
fresh start. And there's the not-so-little matter of her
lie coming between them.
Worse, she learns that revealing her secret will ruin
Tyler. Diana protected him from the truth once before. Now
she has to risk her own future to do it again.
