In her captivating second novel, Laurel Handfield takes readers into the unfulfilled life of twenty-eight-year-old Jordan. Jordan works as a secretary insensitive employer who constantly mistreats her, but she lacks the confidence she so needs and passively accepts the daily humiliation and degradation. That is until his partner Trent Prescott engages her in candlelit dinners and sizzling nights of passion. In spite of her insecurities about her self-worth (and weight), Trent makes Jordan feel alive again.
But chaos strikes when someone ends up murder and suspicions fall on Jordan, Trent reaches out to help her. Can she trust him? Faced with a crisis that will determine the rest of her life, Jordan knows she has to change in order to survive. The only problem is that she may not recognize the woman staring back at her from the mirror.
