About Virgil’s Dilemma

A woman on the verge of choosing to trust. A single dad dedicated to protecting his son. A shadow from the past creeping forward at the worst possible time.

After losing his ex-wife to a destructive addiction, Virgil Tagaloa vowed to create a stable life for himself and his son. Ten years later, Virgil and fourteen-year-old Jax are thriving on Wren Island. But as Virgil prepares to pop the big question to the only woman he’s ever truly loved, a shadow from the past creeps into the picture. When his once-clear vision for the future becomes unsettlingly murky, how will Virgil find solid footing to move forward?
