They called her a curse.
Born into poverty and loathed by her parents, Glenn was told she was the reason for her family's misery. The only light in her world was her younger sister, Janella, and the intricate bead jewelry they shared. To save herself and to break the "curse" Glenn makes the ultimate sacrifice: she runs away into the night, leaving Janella behind with nothing but a pink, heart-shaped necklace and a broken promise.
Eight years later, Glenn is gone. In her place stands Aurora Grande , the billionaire CEO of a New York jewelry empire and a Harvard graduate. She has the fame, the wealth, and the power she always dreamed of, but the shadows of the village still haunt her.
When a talented new designer applies for a job at Aurora's firm, the past and present collide. Janella has come to the city to find her sister but she doesn't realize she's walking into the office of the woman she's been searching for. Can love mend the beads of a broken past, or has the "curse" finally caught up to them?
"From heartbreak in a village to power in New York... can a sister's love undo a lifetime of pain?"
