"In her latest book, Gwen Cannon introduces us to a new set of characters -- all of whom are trying to get ahead, some by dreaming, some by scheming -- playing out the same old dangerous games. You'll meet mothers and daughters, at odds and trying to reconcile; brothers who betray brothers; and sisters who stand by their siblings. SCANDALOUS is awash in a welter of blackmail and double-cross, steamy, sweaty sex, and sudden violence. Take a read on the wild and steamy side; SCANDALOUS will entertain you so much that it's scandalous " Anthony Ambrogio, Editor
