Summary
Recovering from the physical and emotional abuse of her first husband, Maggie funnels her dreams into music. She soon finds fame and romance as a globe-trotting singing sensation and marries soccer and film star Will Shepherd. Her second marriage ends much like her first: with gun-play. Now the world wants to know if she is a black widow, or if she just attracts the wrong kind of man. The heroine is Maggie Bradford, who shoots her first husband, an army officer who abused her, and gets away with it. Maggie becomes a singer and songwriter, her fame grows and she falls in love with a soccer star. They marry, it's a big event and everything goes well until Maggie kills him for abusing her daughter. Does Maggie attract dangerous abusers, or is she simply too quick on the trigger? A trial will tell because this time there will be a trial.
