Like the victims who pass through her office, this attorney's own past demands justice. When an eleven-year-old girl is savagely attacked by her mother's live-in boyfriend, attorney Lettie Portman is called to the hospital. She meets a sweet, young girl whose only goal is to go to school and come home to a safe environment. But the abuse gets worse, the case goes to trial by jury. And Lettie stumbles. To help this girl in need, she must first deal with her own abuse from years before. Meanwhile, Detective Antonio "Tony" Reedy lets her know he's interested in more than just investigating the abused girl's case. But Lettie's background makes it all but impossible to trust again. As Tony slowly begins to gain her confidence, can she learn to love again? John Ellsworth is a USA TODAY bestseller, an Amazon Featured Author, and has repeatedly won the title of Kindle All-Star.
