About This Book
It was only a little murder. He wasn't even an important man. And it happened so long ago. If anyone shoulda been shocked, it shoulda been me. After all, I was married to him." -Bonita Faye Burnett
And so begins the remarkable story of Bonita Faye, one of the most likable gals you'd ever want to meet. A sassy woman from rural Poteau, Oklahoma, she spends a lifetime looking back on her dramatic liberation from mean, low-down Billy Roy Burnett.
In this funny, touching, and very endearing tale, she tells all--from the night Billy Roy was killed on Cavanal Hill, to the day she leaves Poteau behind and follows her dreams to Paris, France.
By the time you've finished hearing it all, Bonita Faye will have won a permanent place in your heart.
