Summary
When a reporter threatens to topple her life of wealth and fame as a talk-show hostess by exposing a dark secret from her humble past in rural Appalachia, Ruby Maxwell finds herself fighting for survival in the public spotlight. Original.
Amazon.com description: Product Description: Ruby Maxwell has what every young woman dreams of: a glamorous job hosting an enormously successful talk show, a fabulous penthouse on Fifth Avenue, and a boyfriend who only wants to put a glorious diamond on her finger. But she also has unsettling dreams about the Appalachian home she ran away from at age seventeen, dreams that make it impossible for her to find peace -- or love. When a reporter inadvertently uncovers her secret past, he sets in motion a chain of events that place Ruby in the harsh spotlight of public opinion and threaten to destroy the life she has built for herself.
