Mayelynn ran away from her abusive mother at age fifteen, changed her name to Shelly, and never looked back. Thanks to the help of a truck driver, she got a job at a diner and ended up meeting music mogul, Trent Shepard. They fell in love, had children and the rest is music history. Shelly became a famous singer, but never knew who the name of her truck driver savior. Years later, after life takes its strange twists and turns, her son works with a private investigative firm, and she hires them to find the trucker.This is an interesting story with well-developed characters and an entertaining plot. I enjoyed following the lives of Derek and Alex and came to care about the decisions they made. It’s a rare treat to find a book that keeps you thinking about the story long after it ends. I look forward to reading more by the author and hope she writes more stories with these characters.
