Описание: The secret life of a Michigan couple unraveled when police discovered they'd committed 2 horrific murders When Carol Giles's friend Nancy Billiter was found dead-she had been bound, sexually violated, and injected with a lethal dose of battery acid and heroin-detectives in Michigan traced Billiter's death back to Giles and her boyfriend, Tim Collier. Police also learned that the diabolical duo shared another secret: They had murdered Giles's husband, Jessie. Jessie, who had died months before Billiter, was disinterred, and an autopsy proved he'd been given a lethal shot of heroin instead of his prescribed insulin. Homebound and diabetic, Jessie was a heroin dealer. Police determined that Giles-who was fed up with taking care of her husband and children-along with her lover, Collier, had stolen the fatal dose from Jessie's own drug supply. The cops surmised that Billiter's death might have been due to her knowledge of the couple's plot. In their dramatic trial, Giles and Collier turned against each other, but both were eventually convicted of murder.

Описание:
Jane is a Los Angeles nurse who grew up in a Christian cult that puts celebrities on trial for their sins. Daniel is a has-been actor whose career ended when the cult family members nearly killed him for flirting with her. Eight years after a romantic meet-cute in Battery Park, both search for someone to fill the gap they imagine the other could've filled if given the chance. Jane compulsively goes on dates with every self-professed expert in art, music, and food hoping they will teach her the nuances of the culture she couldn't access in her youth. Daniel looks for a girlfriend who will accept the disabilities left from the cult attack. A loving woman will prove to Daniel's blockbuster star brother, Steve, that he's capable of a supporting role in Steve's upcoming movie and relaunching Daniel's career. When a chance encounter unexpectedly reunites them, Jane and Daniel not only see another chance at the love they lost, but an opportunity to create the lives they've always wanted. The only question is whether their families will let them.
