His books are best sellers and Hollywood came calling. Now the boy from the Bronx lives in a massive home in the town of Willows, one of the wealthiest towns on the East Coast.
Someone once said, be careful what you wish for, you just might get it.
Shaun Harmon thinks that man is onto something. Shaun dreamed of becoming a best-selling author and his dreams came true.
A boy from the Bronx made good. Now he’s got the money…the cars…a sexy new girlfriend…and a huge new house in an exclusive neighborhood. But he’s quickly finding out that both the neighborhood and his sexy new girlfriend aren’t all they seem to be.
A boy from the Bronx made good. Now he’s got the money…the cars…a sexy new girlfriend…and a huge new house in an exclusive neighborhood.
But he’s quickly finding out that both the neighborhood and his sexy new girlfriend aren’t all they seem to be.
They have secrets.
Old secrets…the worst kind.
Now he’s running for his life from a madman who is hell bent on killing him and his daughter to make sure that those secrets stay buried.
Trudy is born and bred in Willows. Her family is Old Money. Capital O, capital M.
She is used to getting what she wants. And she wants the new man in town, the sexy author from the ‘hood. But she doesn’t just want to have him, she wants to indoctrinate him, to own him, to make him part of something depraved that has been going on for many, many years.
But most of all, she wants to take him away from her half-sister, Chloe.
After all, she’s not just rich, she’s wealthy, and wealthy people like her don’t have to play by any rules except the ones they set for themselves.
She WILL have him.
Or no one else will.
Chloe is born and bred in Willows, a quaint town where nothing ever happens…
At least that’s the way it looks from the outside.
A lot has happened here. For centuries, murder, deception, and death have been in the soil, in the very air.
She’s part of the town…she keeps its secrets, after all, she’s one of them. She was the product of an affair between the wealthiest man in town and a maid. An open secret that no one ever brought up.
But to do that, she has to lie to Shaun. She likes Shaun. A lot. But she lies to protect him.
Because her half-sister is ruthless, the keeper of a “tradition” many, many years old, and that no one can stop.
Shaun must understand that, or it won’t be long before he’s gone, just another bloody secret in a town with more than its share.
Shaun tries to navigate his new home, but Willows plays by a different set of rules, and he soon realizes that the wealthy have the most to hide.
And the most to lose.
