The 7 Deadly Sins series that inspired four Lifetime original movies
continues with this unputdownable novel following mortgage broker
Journee Alexander as she tries to escape the secrets of her past without
losing all she has worked to build in the present. Journee Alexander
grew up believing that the only person she could depend on was herself.
After being abandoned by her mother, burning bridges with friends, and
narrowly escaping bad business dealings with her first mentor, her trust
is hard to earn and harder to keep. But she has overcome all of that and
now, as a successful mortgage broker at the top of her game in Houston's
booming real estate market, she has every reason to be proud of her
accomplishments. She achieved this massive success on her own--there's
no need to put her trust in anyone else. But when Journee starts
receiving cryptic text messages from an unknown number threatening to
destroy everything she has worked to build, she is out of her depth for
the first time. Forced to consider accepting help from someone, Journee
turns to the first man she loved, the one who got away. But old habits
are hard to break and after trusting only her own instincts for so long,
can she put her pride aside and accept advice from an old flame? Or
should she put her trust in a brand-new love who is in sync with all
that she wants to do? Journee is forced to confront the secrets of her
past, the old hurts that never seem to heal, and the fact that sometimes
a meteoric rise is just the first step in a devastating fall that will
change her life forever.
