THE STORY: Miller and Malia Hunter have a troubled marriage, but they get by just fine until Miller slips into a pattern of destructive drinking. Life is hard enough in the Texas Panhandle, but Miller's downward spiral begins to unravel the Hunter family and seriously threaten son Eric's upbringing. After a bout with the bottle and the local sheriff, Miller is hauled into jail and the new deputy, Keith, is dispatched to inform Malia that she must come into town and collect her husband. Malia and Keith see sparks the moment they lay eyes on one another. Keith's entrance into the Hunters' lives only complicates things further as young Eric strikes up a friendship with the new deputy. Malia is soon torn apart and must choose between the two men. Will she fight to keep her family together and repair a marriage falling apart at the seams, or will she accept Keith's offer to take care of her and Eric as they should be taken care of?Vaughan, Robert is the author of 'The Rest of the Night' with ISBN 9780822220664 and ISBN 0822220660.
