Since You Been Away

By Drusilla Mars

Shamona relocated from her hometown in Baton Rouge to Houston for a change. She worked as a barmaid at "CHURCH" an underground gentlemen's club where gambling tables and stripper poles crowded the space along with catty co-workers. There she meets the strikingly handsome hustler Claiyton "Country" Lebrado who just arrived back home from the hot streets of Miami. Shamona isn't looking for love but she's allured by Country's charm and the suspicious activity that keeps him away most times.Just when she's settled in with her new job she gets fired, and is forced to step out on faith once again to freelance with her right-hand Opal. The money pile and her love life on the uprising Shamona is gracefully coming into her own. That is, until one of Country's many skeletons crawl out of the closet causing him to leave town again. While he's gone Shamona moves on, and just when the odds of getting married are looking to work in her favor she gets a plethora of shocking revelations.
