Mariana Castillo is forewarned that she must guard her family's secret of clairvoyance. But the brave twenty-five-year-old always meets life's ups and downs head on, saying, "I want to be me and to be free."
She soon learns that her defiance carries heavy consequences, when she's attacked because she avoided discretion.
To protect her family, she buries her emotions, vowing never again to open herself to anyone. That is, until Cassius Russo comes into her life and confusion enters with him. An undercover FBI agent, he holds the key that will unshackle her from her fears and doubts, but only if she can accept his friendship and once more learn to trust.
Hiding and distrust have become habitual, but Mariana will die before she allows gun-running warlords to corrupt her most precious gift, her son, Michael.
