She is the 'supposed' victim of a rape, but as the book unfolds she is the sister to a real crime scene...one where her sister didn't walk away. Planning her revenge on the man that killed her sister, Melissa studies criminal law and takes a job that places her close to where the man works. Seducing him and setting him up, she then attempts to send him to jail. Unfortunately, her plans come unraveled and she ends up going to jail, instead.
