Sasha Milton is no stranger to power, prestige, and wealth. Having been adopted by billionaire Darrell Milton, one of New York's wealthiest and most powerful, has allotted her many privileges within her professional endeavors. Unfortunately, it has also left her social life rather lackluster.
It is no secret that Sasha's last name has given her fame and a notable head start. Her only desire now is to solidify a name for herself amongst the Milton Co. Enterprise.
