Imani Jones believed a man was meant to be nurtured into his true self. She often made the common mistake many women made of taking some dirt, adding blood, sweat and tears to turn it to clay, molding it, fashioning it, polishing it up and putting it in the window for display. Then, they went out and found a more refined piece of pottery to match the beauty she had bestowed in them. It was a Catch-22 and she had come to the conclusion that she was meant to be alone... A woman of affairs. Affairs that left a new scent lingering on her skin each night. Until Vincent Garvey entered the picture. A tall, dark, sexy man who demanded her attention almost immediately. He saw her as his rib, the completion of himself and shows her another side of love. The tender, loving and caring side she thought she would never embrace again. Will Imani get past her love, lust, and trust issues and allow herself to receive the love the Vincent would like to mold her with and restore all that she has given away? Or will Vincent prove to be just another man who is playing games with her heart?
