From Booklist
It has been five years since Brice and Mia divorced (in
The Ties That Bind [BKL Se 1 04]). Now that she and Brice's former best friend, Christian, are married and have a daughter, Mia's life is back on track. She finally has her black knight, yet she has fretful dreams about her ex-husband. Brice returns to Atlanta from Germany with his new wife, Kree--another woman who gives up her identity to make him happy, even forced to do so. Brice reaches out to Christian to rekindle their friendship, but when Christian mentions it to Mia, she is adamant about not wanting to meet with the man who abused her. In spite of both women's discomfort, the men are anxious to mend their friendship. To support their husbands, Mia and Kree agree to meet. Not surprisingly, they not only look alike but also have a lot in common. A novel with compelling twists and turns and a good resolution.

Book Description
Praised for its "cutting-edge dialogue, intriguing characters, and a spicy storyline,"* Electa Rome Parks's The Ties That Bind introduced a savagely honest look at modern romance. Now, in a back-to-back publishing event, Parks returns with her next novel of love and friendship and the betrayals of both-some forgiven, some never forgotten.
It's been five years since they trusted one another-and betrayed one another- only as friends and lovers could. Beautiful Mia, getting a second chance at love. Christian, who gave up his player card for the one woman he's not sure he can trust. And Brice, as irresistibly bad as ever. One woman can tame him-if he'd give her the chance: Kree, innocent but underestimated, and looking for the kind of passion that can change a life. When she finds it, it's going to come with a price. Sometimes, it doesn't take a lot to tear apart friends like these. All it takes is love.
