As a child, 14-year-old Faith Devlin was fascinated with LSU Quarterback Gray Rouillard. Faith and her family lived in a shack on the edges of the Rouillard property. Gray knew where they lived, but really didn't pay much attention to Faith or her family. But when Faith's mother ran away with Gray's father, leaving the Rouillard family on the verge of bankruptcy, Gray was livid. With the help of the sheriff, he ordered the family off of his land and out of town.
Now it is 12 years later and Faith's life has changed. She is no longer the dirt poor child living in a shack. She is educated, owns her own business, and is moving back to her hometown. When Gray gets wind that one of the Devlins is back, he quickly makes move to get rid of her. But Faith is here to stay. She has come back with the knowledge that her mother never left town with Guy Rouillard. In fact, Guy's body is probably buried close by. Faith is determined to find out what exactly happened that fateful night, even when she is receiving threats about her safety.
This book certainly kept me entertained. Faith is a strong character who made a good life for herself in spite of her family. I liked her and felt bad for her situation. Gray is much more hard to take. He cares about his family, but comes off as a Class "A" jerk for more than half of the book. He feels he is protecting his mother and sister, but really acts like an idiot toward Faith by demanding that she get out of town while admitting he wants her for his mistress. It took him a while to get his head screwed on straight and see what was going on around him which made this a good story. My rating: 4 Stars.
