Whisked away to his grand house, it seems Ruby can perhaps forget the shocking reason she and Paul must wed in secret and remain husband and wife in name alone.
But the expensive walls of Cypress Woods cannot shut out the cold eyes of Paul's mother, Gladys, reminding Ruby of the secret she must keep to give Pearl a loving father. Then her venomous twin sister, Gisselle, arrives to taunt her with news of Beau Andreas, Pearl's real father - and the only man Ruby will ever long for with body and soul . . .
