After a month in New York, Cordelia Grey and Letty Larkspur are small-town girls no longer. They spend their afternoons with Astrid Donal at the Greysโ lush Long Island estate and their nights in Manhattanโs bustling metropolis. But Lettyโs not content to be a mere socialite. She is ready at last to chase her Broadway dreamsโno matter the cost.
Cordelia is still reeling from the death of her father at the hands of Thom Hale, the man she thought she loved. Now she is set to honor Darius Greyโs legacy . . . and take her revenge.
Promised to Cordeliaโs half brother, Astrid is caught up in a world of dazzling jewels and glittering nightsโand the sparkle is blinding. Charlie Grey is a gangster playing a dangerous game; and for Astrid, Cordelia, and Letty, the stakes could be deadly.
