โฆ Synopsis
Suzanne Evans is eking out a simple existence waiting tables at the Decklin Cafe in 1850's Pennsylvania, hoping to save enough funds to open a bakery of her own. Buoyed by secret meetings with Deputy Andrew Powers, she presses on even when her cruel boss puts her down for being black and a former whore. As a black lawman, Andrew takes his duties seriously yet he can't shake his desire for Suzanne. Slipping away from his post for a few torrid moments with her keeps him sane even as wanting her drives him toward madness. When Decklin Cafe burns to the ground Suzanne's bigoted boss accuses her of arson and forces Andrew to arrest her. If she's found guilty, she may face the hangman's noose. Angst, fear and mistrust drive a wedge between the two lovers. But love has a way of fighting back and heat doesn't always come from a fire. A Romanticaยฎ historical erotic romance from Ellora's Cave.
