One night, from a random stroke of luck, she meets the dashing Rodney Smith who instantly becomes smitten with her and makes all her dreams come true. Henry is an equally dashing and charismatic socialite and aspiring politician enjoying the spoils of upper society.  When Leila and Henry meet at a grand charity event, the pair fall in love and Leila is forced to re-evaluate her life of gold-digging luxury.

But sinister and deadly events soon begin to unfold, causing Leila to doubt her own sanity and the world in which she has thrown herself into.

Will her new family let her go that easily so that she may pursue the whirlwind romance she longs for? And is a life of lavishness worth the terror that ensues? For nothing is really as it seems in the upper echelons of society, and no one can really be trusted...All Rights Reserved
