Celina Payne still celebrates the day she met visionary new Orleans business man Errol Petrie. When Petrie hired her to represent Dreams - a company that caters to the whims of the wealthy and uses the profits to fund the wishes of dying children - he rescued her from a domineering mother and the suffocating world of high society. But Celina's new-found happiness is shattered all too soon. Arriving one morning at Petrie's Frech Quarter mansion, Celina finds him dead - with all the evidence of a night of sexual excess around him.

"The shocking death of her employer and patron, Errol Petrie ... the excesses suggested by the murder scene ... and the investigation that is sure to follow are just some of the pieces of Celina Payne's nightmare. And the last man she trusts is now the only man she needs. Errol's business partner and friend, Jack Charbonnet, is powerful, enigmatic, and not about to let Celina hide from the truth. Somebody in New Orleans' French Quarter killed Errol, and Celina Payne tops the lists of suspects. Jack's past is as mysterious as the sultry bayou. He is said to be too dangerous to know, and deadly if crossed. But Jack holds the key to Celina's deliverance ... or her destruction."
