Holly Blues

Description

China Bayles isn't happy when a Texas wind blows her husband's ex-wife, and the mother of China's stepson, into her herb shop. Sally is known to have a split personality and falls into constant trouble with the law - but she claims she has nowhere else to turn, so China is left with no other option but to take her in. Now it's up to China to weed out whatever it is Sally's running from before the truth catches up with them all.
