When Ice Melts

Icia Graham's love affair with Rakim Transou had the makings of a fairy tale romance with the happily ever after ending, until the night of Rakim's college graduation party. For Icia, it was the night her life was forever changed. So desperate to escape the horrific memories she'd suddenly been saddled with, Icia left school and the man she loved.
The years passed and; in that time, both Rakim and Icia reached goals that carried them to the heights of success. For Rakim it was a powerful advertising agency that brought him a respected and revered name in the business. Icia's accomplishment was a bit darker, but no less revered and she had no desire to revisit the past and be tortured by thoughts of love lost with the only man she'd ever wanted.
A series of events however, would bring Icia right back to where she swore she'd never return. Once more Rakim Transou was back in her life and she was simultaneously overjoyed and distraught. How could she start anew with the man who still meant everything to her, when there were so many secrets between them? When the need for vengeance on those; who were still very much a part of Rakim's life, still raged so viciously inside her?
