Ivy Freeman felt invincible.
Something taut and sweet spread adrenaline through every tip of her. Her heart pumped like a sprinter's foot.
It was more than enjoyment; it was obsession.

Penfold had it all. A beach, a forest, Beverly Hills and Shanty Town.
Not incapacitated by polio that shortened an arm and a leg during infancy, Ivy grew up with a mason father. He smoked like a broken car and built muscle for his construction site by beating his drug-choked wife, Fran.
