Hell's Diva II

Anna J.'s riveting Hell's Diva series continues as Mecca Skyes returns to take her ultimate revenge on the only person she ever thought she could trust. . . Beautiful Mecca was only a kid when her parents were killed, and she was saved from the rough streets of Brooklyn when her aunt, Ruby, "the godmother of crime," took her in. Ruby rubbed out the goons that murdered Mecca's parents and everything seemed fine--until Ruby betrayed Mecca by sleeping with her man, setting in motion a series of events that nearly leaves Mecca dead from a gunshot wound! Now Mecca's all healed, but her heart is cold, and she won't rest until she brings Ruby down. . . But in the end, everything may not turn out the way Mecca thinks it will. . .
