DESCRIPTION:
He returns to an unwelcoming reception from his Gardi, Georgia, hometown to learn that Audrey has taken shelter from the media with the nuns at a Catholic school. But on the night of the draft, he plummeted from the pinnacle of esteem. Twelve years ago Matthew "the Rocket" Rising had it all. There she has discovered a young man with the talent to achieve the football career Matthew should have had. Falsely accused of a heinous crime with irrefutable evidence, it seemed in an instant all was lost--his reputation, his career, his freedom, and most devastatingly, the love of his life. Having served his sentence and never played a down of professional football, Matthew leaves prison with one goal--to find his wife, Audrey, whom no one has seen since the trial. Married
