"Her name was Bonnie. Eighteen, honey-lush, terrified, and naked. Maybe it was a come-on. Wes McCord didn't care. When she ran from her motel shower to his Louisiana mansion in the middle of the night -- crying rape, offering tricks of love in return for his help -- what could he do, turn her out? So what if the rape charge was phony? So what if Bonnie had $350,000 in stolen bank loot and three trigger-happy hoods on her gorgeous tail? Oh come on, Bonnie baby, come on more.. For Wes was broke."
