The butterfly moments / S. Renée Bess.

After a long career as a Philadelphia parole officer, Alana Blue is ready to move on to more rewarding work. She is given the difficult assignment of supervising Rafe Ortiz, a renegade officer who comes via a disciplinary transfer. Then the body of a brutally murdered university student is discovered near Alana's neighborhood, and detective Johnetta Jones is assigned to the murder case. When the investigation leads her to one of Alana's parolees, Johnetta remembers meeting Alana once before, and their renewed contact suggests possibilities for both women. But as she gets close to solving the murder, Johnetta realizes arresting her suspect will imperil her relationship with Alana. Alana gets caught between her impulsive attraction to Ortiz's flirtatious pursuit and her realization of her growing feelings for Johnetta. Will Alana's world disintegrate when lies are revealed, true identities are exposed, and the murderer is unmasked?
