Evie, 21, has been abandoned by everyone she loves — her mother, sister, and her drug-dealing boyfriend. Evie, resigned to her lonely, dingy cell, has declared herself, the walking dead and hopeless. And she’s satisfied with that. But Evie’s about to stumble upon the one who’s never left her side. She needs only to make a decision to embrace true love. Yvonne J. Medley is a journalist, author, photographer, community volunteer, and a wife and mother.
