"Tuscaloosa, Alabama, may not be a glamorous place, but for Journey Cash, the small Southern town has always been enough. She has a loving husband, a great family, and she even occasionally brings the house down at church with her beautiful, thunderous singing voice. Problem is, Journey finds herself wondering if all those years as an obedient preacher's daughter have kept her from living a life she is really meant to live. When Dame, one of Journey's former students, comes back to town after striking it big as a rap star, Journey gets a taste of the fast-lane life that has passed her by. Dame is exciting, unpredictable and sexy. He is also ten year Journey's junior. But no matter, Journey runs from everything that is idyllic and stable in her world and into the arms of Dame"--P.
