Crowns & Crime: The Gilmore-Hayden Heiress
61 parts Ongoing MatureWhen Lorelai Gilmore ran away from her privileged life with newborn Rory, she left another baby behind on the Gilmore doorstep - Anastasia Emily Gilmore-Hayden. Raised between the glittering estates of the Gilmores and Haydens, Anastasia grew into the very definition of high society royalty: fluent in fifteen languages, a world traveler, a philanthropist, and the beloved heiress to three powerful family empires.
By the time she's fifteen and a sophomore at Chilton, Anastasia's life is perfectly orchestrated - until her mother reappears in Hartford, asking Emily and Richard to fund Rory's tuition. An overheard conversation changes the family dynamic forever, sparking sibling tensions that will only grow as Anastasia moves through Yale, Princeton, and Harvard, destined for greatness while her twin spirals into jealousy and regret.
In the midst of elite prep schools, Ivy League universities, and lavish galas, Anastasia's childhood friends - Logan Huntzberger, Finn Morgan, and Colin McCrae - re-enter her world. What she doesn't know is that these heirs to media, hotel, and legal empires lead a dangerous double life in a secret crime ring, targeting the corrupt rich in daring "Robin Hood" style heists.
From Hartford drawing rooms to Mediterranean yacht decks, Crowns & Crime: The Gilmore-Hayden Heiress is a story of love, betrayal, ambition, and the razor-sharp edges of privilege - where crowns may glitter, but every jewel has a price.
