A car crash and an encounter with a priest turns Teresa's reunion with her daughter into a life changing struggle.

Teresa is a drink dependent, middle aged Brazilian who just wants to be reunited with her daughter but her ex-husband's accidental death leads to a fight for custody of their child.
Bob is a pastor with secrets. He makes Teresa an offer which seems too good to refuse until the truth about him is revealed. Teresa must choose between her daughter, the pastor, or her life.
Book two in the Teresa Da Silva spicy psychological suspense series, Lave to Remain can be read before or after Michael Dees' debut novel, Unwanted Suspicion, for which this is a prequel/sequel.
