It has been along time since I posted a review. This book took me out of hibernation. A great story about a girl that thinks she did something horrible, and runs away to Chicago to start a new life. She falls in love with Bur a young black tax lawyer obsessed with legal trillers. Bur encourages Arlene to go back to Alabama for her Uncles retirement party, but Arlene refuses. Until Bur issues an ultimatum, they both will go to the party, or their through. Arlene has a secret, and to keep her deal with God, she must never tell a lie, never sleep with another man until she is married, and never go back to Alabama. Although she knows that her family will be surprised with Bur, that is not the reason she has stayed away. Her biggest fears will be uncovered, and she will lose everything. Excellent story, characters, plot, and setting. Very entertaining.
