Summary
Saphire seems to have it all as she handles the other men in her life while keeping the man she loves in the dark. Gade envies her sister Saphire, but she wants stability and commitment—and that she has with her man Lamonte...until Joe Burrels walks into her life.
Gade finds herself mimicking her sister as she forms a relationship with the new man. Saphire, the more experienced sister, steps into the picture when she meets Joe Burrels while she's out in a bar with her man Clay. Unbeknownst to Clay, Saphire makes a date to hook up with her sister's man and that's when the competition begins. (From the publisher.)
