Publisher's Synopsis
Mercedes needs men for one thing only - and it has nothing to do with her heart. Growing up with her mother has made her sure of that. Now Mercedes has to travel home to South Georgia, where her mother, Miss Betty, is recovering from surgery. Back to the rickety old house that holds a lot of memories for her. If she could only learn to deal with the bad ones. Because a man has come into her life - a fine, church-going black man, the kind Mercedes never even dared believe in. She's going to have to get herself together to let Darius into her life...
