| Plot Summary of Shades of Twilight |
"Roanna grew up loving Webb, but she always knew he was going to marry her beautiful cousin, Jessie. Webb and Jessie do marry, but it is far from a happy reunion. Jessie is betraying Webb in the vilest way possible (take my word on this!). When Jessie is found murdered, Webb is the first suspect. The evidence to convict him isn't there, and he leaves Alabama--taking all of Roanna's love and hopes with him. After many years, Webb is needed at home and Roanna is sent to find him. Together, can they find out the truth behind Jessie's death and the love they missed so many years before? As you can see by the detailed review, this book has it all! Obsession, betrayal, murder, family secrets and true love."
