Featured in Galveston Monthly Magazine
“Swept up in a whirlwind of intrigue, calculated seductions, and phantoms of her past existence, Aimée maneuvers the politics and personalities of the country’s most famous red-light district with a grace and sophistication that belies her occupation, only to learn that the most daunting task she faces is that of self-discovery. By her side, we learn that redemption is found only after we first forgive ourselves. Love is more than a romantic feeling, rather a force of nature that is always on the side of truth and justice. And when we inevitably become disillusioned with the world, its demands, and the sacrifices that chisel away at our dreams, life will remind us that we cannot put a price on freedom.”
