Tamika Lawson thought moving into Darnell Stevenson’s house meant building a future.
Instead, she inherits a history.
His ex still has a key.
His mother still treats her like family.
The neighbors still call her the woman of the house.
And every answer Darnell gives only leads to another secret.
When Tamika starts digging, she discovers the problem isn’t one key.
It’s a system.
A house built with another woman’s labor.
A business that still remembers her.
A family determined to protect the man at the center of it all.
The deeper Tamika searches, the more dangerous the truth becomes:
Some women are never really exes.
And some men rewrite the women who helped make them.
A gripping psychological urban suspense novel about love, access, loyalty, and the stories people tell to protect themselves.
From Sanaa Jordan, author of The Wrong Woman Series.
