In this dark, "Rated R for Real" romantic novel by Shayne Ferguson, life delivers Simone Sanders (a.k.a. Stone Cold) a major punch in the gut, and she's faced with two choices: either take the faster way out to end the pain, or allow love to slowly and painstakingly chisel away at her stone cold heart. Either choice will forever alter Simone and her ideas about life, love, and relationships.
