Bound by Betrayal

About the Book

Bound by Betrayal is a story about two women whose lives are derailed by the lies and deceit of the man who claimed to love them. Flore, a reserved school teacher, lives in Haiti with her adopted daughter. They move to the United States when health concerns make Haiti too risky for her to stay. In New York, Flore encounters Maude, who is mourning her children who were murdered at the hands of her fiancé. Maude is crippled with grief over the loss of a daughter she does not believe is dead. She has pushed everyone essential out of her life, and has little desire to get to know her only surviving child. As Maude begins to pick up the pieces of her life, it intersects with Flore’s, and the women find they have much in common.
