Celestial and Roy seemed to be on their way to their dream lives. Then Roy was wrongfully accused of a crime that sent him to prison. This is the story of what can happen to love and life in an instant.

This book offers some valuable insight into the plight of a wrongfully accused African-American man and how those accusations and years away from his wife affects not only his marriage but the relationships of all those around their marriage. Fathers/sons, husband/wife, inlaws and mothers relationships were all taken to task by the events of that one fateful night. It is a book that is well worth the time it takes to read it.
