Publisher's Synopsis
Indigo Jones' life seems destined to be complicated from birth. Immediately after she is born to the very young and very beautiful Ruby, she is abandoned by both parents, but a turn of events forces Ruby to reluctantly care for the child she wishes she never had. Provocative, shapely, and self-absorbed, Ruby is more concerned with getting a man's attention than giving any attention to her child. Ruby's contempt for Indigo grows as the child gets older. Meanwhile, the identity of Indigo's father is shrouded in mystery. Emotionally broken, sexually confused, and unaware of her beauty, Indigo's desire for love and acceptance is fulfilled by an array of unforgettable characters. Some despise her and some love her but each leaves an indelible mark upon her soul. Love arrives in the form of the strikingly handsome and suave restaurateur Tyrone Mayfield. But his love comes with a price as he draws Indigo deeper into his other businesses. While Indigo does not have much of a life without Tyrone in it, with him she may die. He Calls Her Blue is the first installment of a coming-of-age drama by an up-and-coming new voice in literature.
