Publisher's Synopsis
By all appearances, 24-year-old Lithia Murphy could be a model with her long strawberry blonde hair and Marilyn Monroe curves. No one would guess the chunky girl in the youth camp photo was her. Struggling with low self-esteem and naïve of worldly ways, she wanted to be loved. First, Harold tries to show her affection, then spreads lies to those she loved. In college, when the persuasively charming Killian Shaefer says he loves her, little does Lithia know what plans he has instore. The horrible words "if you love me, you'll do this for me," placed her in the beds of numerous men for profit in Killian's pocket. The only guy she could ever remember being a gentleman was a camp counselor named CJ, who gave her yellow roses and sang "Jesus Loves Me" to her one night. Until Craig O'Shay. Craig was tall, broad muscular shoulders and with blue eyes seeming to search her soul. A successful businessman in town for a charity event for the women's abuse centers, Lithia found herself as escort for Mr. O'Shay during his time while in Tampa. Daniel, her boss, had told her she was to do "anything he wants". Was Daniel selling her again after two years? No, not again. But this man, with his auburn hair, talk of God, and his Prince Charming manners, gave sensations she had never imagined were hidden inside her. Could love and forgiveness come to a harlot's heart? Brenda Richardson-McGhee is a high school English teacher and mom of six boys. A native Central Florida girl, she loves to be creative. She can't remember her life without a church family and is the fourth generation still active in her church with drama, music, and ladies' ministry.
