Cheryl Ladd is fantastic in this movie. She plays an ex-convict who is set up with a wealthy businessman as a joke. They end up falling deeply in love but their relationship goes sour as soon as Lucinda (Cheryl Ladd) becomes comfortable enough to show her true colours. If you love the suspenseful twisted lifetime movies then this is a great one to own.

Cheryl Ladd is stunning and eerily seductive as she disgards her Charlie's Angels personna to play the role of a woman who refuses to be cowed in a man's world and cannot accept true love in the face of acquiring great wealth from her much older husband. She always has a "Plan B" and thinks nothing of spending as much as she pleases to please herself at any cost. When her husband tries to rein her in, the mask of innocence comes completely off and one immediately knows that his days are numbered. In the meantime, Ms. Ladd manipulates, toys with, and seemingly seduces for one fleeting moment the handsome youthful son of her husband (how far they go is left at guesswork). A somewhat homely sister is used as her pawn. When the husband is found murdered from a gunshot, his best friend (Nick Mancuso, a detective) who introduced the deceased to Ladd is determined to prove her guilt. However, no murder weapon can be found; the son becomes a prime suspect; pressure is put on Ladd's sister to implicate her - and through it all Ladd remains deliciously unperturbed. She is as smart as she is beautiful; and IF she is guilty, how did she do it and where is the murder weapon?

A true story. I personally know the neighbors of this family, and it rocked the community where they live. I believe this evil lady will stay behind bars for the rest of her life.
