In America, kings are not born, they are made.ΠΒ Men with ambition build their own empires and it is their heirs who carry the torch of tradition, generation by generation.ΠΒ
The Vasser Hotel Empire rose out of the ashes of an Industrial era, cementing itself in the very heart of America's greatest city, New York.ΠΒ Through the drive and courage of one man, a legacy was born that would last more than a hundred years.
That is, until word got out that one of their own was murdered.ΠΒ
Sixty years of lies will come crashing down in flames of treachery and blood, and the truth will send shockwaves through an entire nation.ΠΒ Now the newest generation of Vasser heirs will have to deal with the consequences, or else allow their legacy to burn to the ground.

When reputation is everything, it will take all they've got to save themselves from their own undoing.
About the Author
Nothing can compare to the exhilaration of discovering, at last, a mode of release for the imagination. Mine came, after years of struggling to visualize my creativity, in the form of written word. I found myself with my nose constantly in a book, absorbing the life of the characters and the beauty of the setting. It was intoxicating, to say the least, and the only thing I knew was that I wanted to give writing a shot, and take the thousands of characters and storylines in my head and put them down on paper, and form them into something real and compelling.
In truth, I'm just a girl from a small town north of Los Angeles, with an imagination for days and thank goodness a keyboard at my fingertips. And even though my husband thinks I'm a nerd and my mom is undoubtedly my biggest fan, at the end of the day I'm loving life and enjoying giving breath to the characters living in my heart, and sharing with others all the creativity I can harness.
I believe in true love, and I've always believed in happy endings. And that is just the beginning of the story.
