Book excerpt: Regina Jackson, attractive single mom and rising curator of a newly formed arts foundation is in love with her boss, Dr. Dennis Dickerson. Dennis is elusive, at best, and totally by accident, Regina finds herself in a relationship with an incarcerated man, Ray Boden. Dennis makes trips to the prison, seemingly on business, but Regina later finds out that he is dealing drugs in the prison and is in way over his head. Ray is trying to stop the drug trade in Cell block C, while Shaka – Ray’s arch enemy – is trying to get rich by selling cocaine to the other inmates. Ray tries to solicit Regina’s help and they fall in love. In the meantime, Dennis justifies his illegal actions. He is using the money to build his museum and a reputation for himself. On a trip to the prison, Shaka tries to kill him and steals his identity. Shaka succeeds in escaping and goes to the museum to score big money and kill the object of everyone’s affection – Regina. Dennis arrives just in time to save her. Shaka is apprehended and returned to prison. Regina realizes that she truly loves Dennis and her locked down relationship must end. However, her passion for Ray won’t die. Regina agrees to come to the prison to say goodbye. When she arrives, Ray has ‘disappeared’ but she discovers her long lost father who has been incarcerated for over 25 years. Throughout the novel, Regina meets nine women who are in locked down relationships. All of these women share their stories with her which effect the outcome of Regina’s love affair. She realizes that she, in many ways, has been locked down in love. It took the love of a convict to set her free.
